India’s agriculture sector is undergoing a structural transformation, driven by rising demand, diversification of produce, and the need for efficient farm-to-market linkages. However, fragmented logistics systems, post-harvest losses, inadequate storage, and weak last-mile connectivity continue to constrain farmer incomes and overall supply chain efficiency. This report positions agri-logistics as a critical enabler of productivity, competitiveness, and food security, emphasizing that logistics is no longer a supporting function but a core pillar of agricultural value creation.

The analysis highlights that agri-logistics is an integrated ecosystem spanning storage, cold chains, warehousing, aggregation, transportation, packhouses, and digital platforms. While policy reforms and infrastructure investments are accelerating modernization, persistent structural inefficiencies including limited cold-chain penetration, first-mile bottlenecks, and fragmented coordination continue to generate avoidable losses and raise transaction costs. Addressing these constraints is essential to improving price realization for farmers and strengthening supply chain resilience.
