FOREWORD
My grandfather used to say that once in your life you need a doctor, a lawyer, a policeman and a
preacher but every day, three times a day, you need a farmer!
-- Brenda Schoepp
Despite the important role played by the farming community, majority of the farmers are facing
distress due to a combination of several factors which include small land holding, lack of access to
quality inputs (seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, credit, etc.) and problems related to marketing of output.
These problems are faced more by small, marginal and tenant farmers who constitute 90% of the total
farmers in India.
Collectivization of such producers, into Farmers’ Producer Organisations (FPOs) has emerged as one
of the most effective ways to address the challenges faced by these farmers. The FPOs facilitate hassle
free access to financial and non-financial services at doorstep of the farmer at the right time on one
hand and in realising bigger pie of consumer rupee for their products, on the other. More than anything
farmers will have comfort of an umbrella that would be working “24X7” for their welfare.
While the FPOs are promoted by multiple development agencies like, NABARD, Small Farmer Agri-
business Consortium (SFAC), Corporates, Community Based Organisation CBO), etc., it is for the FPOs
to mould themselves from being mere sellers and buyers to business organisations with commercial
outlook. For such a thing to happen, FPOs need to have a proper vision which gets reflected in a
realistic business plan with numbers and time-lines attached to it.
Bankers Institute of Rural Development (BIRD) has been fore-runner in capacity building of FPOs from
inception of FPO movement in the country. The feedback from the field revealed that access to financial
resources is major impediment in broadening their business activities. In addition to low capital base,
lack of a sound business plan dissuade the financial institutions in extending credit facility the FPOs.
This has emerged as a critical gap in the FPO movement. To fulfil this gap, BIRD has designed a manual
on “Step by Step Guide to Business Planning by FPOs” which will be of immense help to FPOs.
Although, this manual is supposed to be like a “do it yourself” type guide, it will be preferable that it
is administered in by a trainer who has either gone through a trainers training programme (TTP) on
FPOs or has good understanding of the subject.
I congratulate Team BIRD for bringing out this, one of its kind, manual.
I look forward for suggestions from all the stakeholders for improving this small contribution by us.

Author’s note
With more than 85% of framers being small and marginal category, the limited requirements of
inputs, limited farm surpluses force the farmers to source the inputs in retail and sell unprocessed,
ungraded/ sorted product in bulk at village level. In such situation, sourcing the inputs and
primary processing and marketing of outputs by farmers on a collective manner is the only way
through which farmers can expect to take advantage of collective bargaining. Such collectives also
facilitate extension efforts of Government much easier and also industry can deal with one agency
for their raw materials rather than large number of farmers. Delayering in markets is very effective
through active farmers’ collectives.
More than 5000 Farmers’ Producers’ Organisations (FPOs) are established across the country
through initiatives of NABARD, SFAC and other agencies. These FPOs are expected to work on
business lines. Based on the interactions in the Programmes and other feedback from NABARD,
SFAC and other agencies, we feel that the challenges in the FPOs regarding business plans are as
under:
A business plan without Governance structure and understanding the compliance requirements
will only lead to future issues on sustainability of FPO as an organisation. The present attempt is
to provide a step by step guide to preparation of business plans by FPOs.
A common refrain is that FPOs may not be in a position to prepare such business plans. Authors
of this guide book would like to reiterate that the inputs in this book are based on actual business
plans prepared by many FPOs across the country (yellow sheets) and so it would not be impossible
for any FPO aspiring to run a business to prepare a reasonably good business plan (white sheet),
perhaps, with some initial help from Producer Organisation Promoting
Institutions/departments/agencies etc.
The booklet is designed in such a way that the CEO would be seeing a chapter plan and content
from one of the business plans prepared else-where in the country and would use the same for
filling up the data in the blank sheets provided for his business plan. The sources from where the
data can be tapped or generated is also given so that he can access the same. Let us also try from
village sarpanch, block office or wiki villages in India and you would find that information is, after
all, readily available.
The contributions and suggestions of many faculty members of BIRD/NBSC and officers from
NABARD at various offices and encouragement and precise inputs and feedback from Director
and Joint Director of BIRD are invaluable in bringing this guide book to present shape and
respectfully acknowledged.

1. CONTEXT OF THE PROJECT* Model Page
The Scheduled Tribe (ST) population in Orissa (22%) is larger than the national average of 8%
& the Scheduled Caste (SC)) population is 16%. Together they account for 38% of the
population. The State has the third highest tribal population in the entire country, which
accounts for roughly 11 percent of the total tribal population of India.
The tribal economy in the State of Orissa is primarily subsistence oriented and based upon a
combination of agriculture, forestry and wage labour. Tribal women play an active role in
both household affairs and also in providing economic input in some form or the other for
survival of families. They contribute the major part of the labour required for agriculture and
collection of Non-Timber forest produce. In addition to this, they take up wage labour
whenever available.
Tribals remain the most disadvantaged section of Indian society in terms of poverty, illiteracy, poor
nutritional & health status and lack of access to social & technical services. In addition tribal
households face inter-related problems of land scarcity, low levels of agricultural productivity and
the absence of economic alternatives which in turn lead to environmental degradation and
borrowing from traders and money lenders at high rates of interest. This vicious cycle of low
productivity, chronic indebtedness and decreasing incomes has progressively undermined
livelihood security and has been accompanied by the weakening of tribal institutions, the
worsening of gender relations, increasing economic stratification within tribal into wider political
and economic structures which tribal men and women are powerless to influence.
*The context of the project should be related to area where the FPO is situated. The example
given here is about an FPO situated in typical tribal area.

2. About the Farmers’ Producer Organisation Model Page
Producers' Companies are registered under Indian Companies Act, 1956 (section 581C). It can
be formed by any ten or more individuals, each of them being a primary producer or any two
or more producer institutions or a combination of ten or more individuals and producer
institutions can get a producer company incorporated. In terms of the Act, primary produce
includes produce of farmers arising from agriculture, including animal husbandry,
horticulture, floriculture, viticulture, forestry, forest products, re-vegetation, bee raising and
farming plantation products, produce of persons engaged in handloom, handicraft and other
cottage industries: byproducts of such products; and products arising out of ancillary
industries.
The proposed FPO is in Banspal Block of Keonjhar district. Banspal Block is in the western
part of the district and the block head quarter is nearly 25 km from the district head quarter
of Keonjhar. There are 21 gram panchayats and 164 villages in this block. As far as different
development indicators are concerned, this is the most backward block in the district with
78% tribal population, 28% literacy rate and 89% of the total households living below poverty
line. Most of the farmers are doing vegetables & horticulture farming in this area. Looking to
this scenario DASERY PRODUCER COMPANY LIMITED was established in 5th September
2016.It was registered under the Company ACT-1956 (amendment 2002-2003 & 2013). The
company will work for farmers in all kind of sustainable agricultural and horticultural income
and marketing of such products. The FPO was formed in the support of NABARD &
S.G.Foundation, Keonjhar.

3.2 NABARD
(http://www.nabard.org
The importance of institutional credit in boosting rural economy has been clear to the
Government of India right from its early stages of planning. Therefore, the Reserve Bank of
India (RBI) at the insistence of the Government of India, constituted a Committee to Review
the Arrangements for Institutional Credit for Agriculture and Rural Development
(CRAFICARD) to look into these very critical aspects. The Committee was formed on 30
March 1979, under the Chairmanship of Shri B. Sivaraman, former member of Planning
Commission, Government of India.
The Committee’s interim report, submitted on 28 November 1979, outlined the need for a
new organisational device for providing undivided attention, forceful direction and pointed
focus to credit related issues linked with rural development. Its recommendation was
formation of a unique development financial institution which would address these
aspirations and formation of National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development
(NABARD) was approved by the Parliament through Act 61 of 1981.
NABARD came into existence on 12 July 1982 by transferring the agricultural credit functions
of RBI and refinance functions of the then Agricultural Refinance and Development
Corporation (ARDC). It was dedicated to the service of the nation by the late Prime Minister
Smt. Indira Gandhi on 05 November 1982.
Set up with an initial capital of Rs.100 crore, its’ paid up capital stood at ₹ 5,000 crore as on 31
March 2016. Consequent to the revision in the composition of share capital between
Government of India and RBI, the Government of India today holds ₹ 4,980 crore (99.60%)
while Reserve Bank of India holds ₹ 20.00 crore (0.40%).
NABARD’s initiatives are aimed at building an empowered and financially inclusive rural
India through specific goal oriented departments which can be categorized broadly into three
heads: Financial, Developmental and Supervision. Through these initiatives we touch almost
every aspect of rural economy. From providing refinance support to building rural
infrastructure; from preparing district level credit plans to guiding and motivating the
banking industry in achieving these targets; from supervising Cooperative Banks and
Regional Rural Banks (RRBs) to helping them develop sound banking practices and on-
boarding them to the CBS platform; from designing new development schemes to the
implementation of GoI’s development schemes; from training handicraft artisans to providing
them a marketing platform for selling these articles.
19 | P a g e
Over the years NABARD’s initiatives have touched millions of rural lives across the country.
Our milestone achievements have been India’s achievements as well. The SHG Bank Linkage
Project launched by NABARD in 1992 has blossomed into the world’s largest micro finance
project. Kisan Credit Card, designed by NABARD has become source of comfort for crores of
farmers. NABARD have financed one fifth of India’s total rural infrastructure. NABARD were
pioneers in the field of watershed development as a tool for sustainable climate proofing. The
activities of NABARD are as under:
Direct Finance
• Loans for Food Parks and Food Processing Units in Designated Food Parks
• Loans to Warehouses, Cold Storage and Cold Chain Infrastructure
• Credit Facilities to Marketing Federations
• Rural Infrastructure Development Fund
• Direct Refinance to Cooperative Banks
• Financing and Supporting Producer Organisations
• Alternative Investment Funds

Innermost Circle: Core Business,
After identification of Scope & issues of the area the FPO has made the
problem analysis report. The details are given below -:
1 – INPUT LEVEL
❖ Inputs like Fertilizers, pesticides, seeds, agricultural equipment are not easily
available in the blocks.
❖ Farmers are not getting the proper input in the right time as per their demand.
❖ Farmers have to depend on small retail outlets for their agricultural need.
❖ The farmers are not aware of quality of the products sold to them.
2 – FARMERS LEVEL
❖ As per the base line survey done by the FPO the younger generation are reluctant to
continue in the agriculture.
❖ They need proper guidance from the line department about agriculture.
❖ They are not aware about the various scheme of the Government departments.
❖ There are no other farmers Institution available in the blocks like FPO, Farmers Club
etc.
❖ Institutional level access is one of the major problems for the farmers as per the base
line survey.
3 – PRODUCTION LEVEL
❖ Farmers are not getting proper guidance and proper package of practices for
production for different crops. So their production level is decreasing by the time.
❖ Due to excess use of chemical fertilizers and improper water management, natural
calamities, lack of technology awareness the productivity level is low.
❖ In spite of promotion of mechanization of agriculture in some parts of the areas, most
of the agricultural operations in are carried out manually using simple &
conventional tools & implements like wooden plough sickle etc.
4 – MARKETING
❖ Agricultural marketing is the major problem in Banspal block. Due to lack of proper
facilities in the block the farmers have to depend upon local traders and middlemen
for sale of their farm produce.
❖ There are one or two local market in the block but the farmers are not getting good
price for their product.
❖ Some of the farmers are going outside the district to sell their product but the
transportation cost is very high.
64 | P a g e
❖ The farmers don’t have any contacts or any idea about the good market where they
can get the right price of their product.
❖ Due to absence of an organized marketing structure, private traders and middlemen
capture the marketing of agricultural produce. All these problems are affecting the
income level of the farmers.
❖ PRESENT SINARIO OF MARKETING
5 – STORAGE
❖ Storage facilities of the area are very much poor. Under such condition the farmers
are bound to sell their produce immediately after harvesting.
❖ There is one cold storage in the district head quarter which is around 50 to 60 km
away from the block.
❖ Due to lack of staying power, farmers are not willing storage their product.
6 – PRICING
❖ Pricing of the product is a big issue for the farmer in the block. Farmers are not
getting proper price for their produce compared to their expenses.
❖ As there is no such big market in the block. Farmers mostly depend on the
middlemen of the area to sell their produce.
❖ In this situation the middlemen and the small vendor are giving the low price to the
farmers.

INTERVENTION PROPOSED
After analyse the problem of the farmers in the area the POPI has proposed some
Interventions through FPO. The core idea of making DASERY PRODUCER COMPANY
LIMITED (FPO) is to bring the farmers together to make them realize the power of collective
bargaining to help them procure better quality of input at lower price and get better price for
their produces. This will help them to enrich their livelihood and income. The farmers will be
more equipped in making decisions regarding the cultivation activities as the farmers will
have knowledge of different govt. scheme, weather conditions, crop management, crop
insurance, crop loan available. The vision of the farmers is going to change because of the FPO
model as they will be looking forward for their standard of business and food processing
business. They can carry out various developmental activities in their village like education,
health etc.

DPCL is planning for doing of Agricultural outlet, collection & storage center, food processing

• DPCL will market all input particularly organic product like vermi-compost, bio
compost and seeds, agricultural equipment through its outlet or sale centre. It will help
to reduce the expenses of their farming.
• Additional information like subsidies, agricultural loan, agricultural insurance,
several govt. scheme will also given by DPCL.
• DPCL is planning for set up a Agri-Mall in the block for smooth running of the
business.
• Collection center will be established by the company in selected clusters in the block.
• One storage center will be established in company premises for cleaning, sorting,
grading of the products.
• The center will be managed by the local level SHGs/ youth on commission basis for
better functioning.
88 | P a g e
• In the initial stage the company will take the storage house on rent. The farmers can
store their produce in the storage house when market goes down and take their
produce to the market when the market is higher.
• The company will provide credit facilities to the farmers on their produce which was
stored in the village.
• Processing & value addition is the most important part to the agricultural sector
because when processed product going to the market the price of the product is
increasing.
• Keeping this in view DPCL is planning to establish a Processing & value addition unit
of the produces in the block. But DPCL will not entering in to the processing unit in
first 3 years. The company will plan to think of setting up processing unit for locally
available product like Mango, Tomato etc.
• These processing units may come up in the form of small scale grading/shorting,
packaging units for primary level of value addition as well as fully mechanized
processing units for large scale processing unit.
• Small scale units with more manual operations could exist in the form of decentralized
processing units managed by the village level groups.
• DPCL will provide other social services like farmers training about new practices in
the field. Company will provide Agronomist to increase production and proper
guidance of crop protection.
• Company will introduce protective cultivation to farmers for increasing productivity
in farming like poly house, shade net house etc.
• Soil testing services must be done for the farmers to suggest them about soil
production capacity to choose proper crop for cultivation.
• Company will motivate the farmers towards organic farming through training &
doing exposure to the other area.
TRANSPORTATION FACILITY
• One of the main draw back in the agriculture is the mode of transportation in the area.
• Company will focus on the shortest market for the business because for the high
transportation cost.
• Company will follow a direct marketing initiative wherein they would continue to sell
their produce to institutions like hotels, schools, mall etc.
• In order to maximize the profits the company may propose to buy/rent a four wheeler
for better transportation.
89 | P a g e
MARKETING PLAN
• DPCL has developed market linkages for input & seeds procurement from various
reputed companies from Bhubaneswar & Cuttack.
• This will help in ensuring timely supply of inputs and seeds in the best quality which
further helps the company to have advantages over any such kind of business running
in the area.
• Company will also coordinate with the various irrigation companies/ agencies (both
Government & private sector) for laying wells / sprinklers etc. in farmers’ fields for
facilitating better production.
• Company will also employ a marketing/ agriculture expert to help the farmers.
• Company will also help in farmers selling some products directly to customer.
• There is a huge potential for fresh vegetables in the area which can be marketed in
the nearby town.
• Company can make a promotion for the farmers produce like advertising, promotion
camp, direct campaign etc.
• There will be differential pricing mechanism for attracting non-members into taking
membership.
• Company may go to the various trade fairs organized by Govt. department in the town
area.
