In this twenty-first century, our country is still incurring significant post-harvest losses. Most of the cold storage facilities are based on conventional energy intensive process with outdated technologies. Improper storage and cold treatment infrastructure reduces the life and deteriorates the quality of perishable products. Supply chain practitioners adopted the green cold chain management practices to overcome numerous challenges associated with developing the cold chain network. Literature review reported that green cold chain management is under-developing phase in India, but these practices have gained huge popularity in the western world. The purpose of the paper is to identify necessary barriers, determine hierarchical and contextual relationships between variables influencing green cold chain practices in India. Here researcher used interpretive structural methodology that uses systematic application of some elementary notions of graph theory approach and Boolean algebra to construct directed graph. Further the dependence and driving power of variables are categorized using MICMAC analysis. The formulation of strategy considers barriers of green cold chain management, i.e.: (1) High capital costs of renewable projects, (2) Outdated technology, (3) Poor cold chain network, (4) Lack of skilled manpower, (5) Poor cold storage Infrastructure, (6) Cold chain sterilization with chemicals, (7) Lack of reverse logistics, (8) Lack of information system infrastructure, (9) Lack of government support, and (10) Non-recyclable packaging. The findings suggest that cold chain infrastructure and government support are key drivers of green cold chain practices.

Food cold chain management (FCCM) is a specialized kind of supply chain supported by the two different technologies first, refrigeration and second information technology. The refrigeration equipments like cold storages and cold storing devices. They can keep the food quality cum safety intact and enhance food items shelf life. The information technology enables the tracking and tracing through data loggers etc. Despite the huge fresh produce availability in India, food inflation and food security issues are major concerns for policy makers. The food wastage in India is close to US$ 8309 million annually (US$ 60.17) due to lack of processing and cold storage facilities. The aim of this paper is to discuss status of food cold storage in India. The chapter is based on extensive review of existing literature, studying novel cold storage status and presenting benefits of cold storage. The outcome of research will be that FCCM can play vital role in supplying quality, safe food products and instrumental in reduction of food wastages.

The study provides an overall idea about the development of cold chain in the dairy industry as well as the necessity of having cold chain management in the dairy sector. Cold Chain involvement has been a huge contribution to the dairy sector as it has helped the sector to flourish more as well as to unfold to its maximum potential. Cold chain statistics provides the information to know about the present status of cold chain in the nation. Cold chain in the country is still under development and hasn’t been used to its utmost advantages and uses which will be explored in the forthcoming years. The reason or challenges encountered by the cold chain while its practice are the major drawback for the lack of cold chain application in the country which also have been tapped upon in the study. The present scenario of the dairy sector with the application of cold chain helped to minimise the losses of the dairy sector by a huge margin. The application of cold chain in dairy sector is practised in the storage and transportation of milk and its value based products hence government also provides schemes and initiatives for the usage of cold chain supply s it ensures zero wastage, affordable product, accessible product, healthy and nutritious products. The cold chain supply has essential steps of storage and transportation which have been explained in the study through the considerations of the appropriate design of cold storage based upon the product to be stored. There are various types of cold storage which must be taken into consideration while designing of cold storage. The cold chain supply of milk and its value added products varies from product to product and it must be ensured for preservation of quality and its shelf life throughout the cold chain supply by inhibiting the product from microbial attack hence the maintenance of the ambient temperature is absolutely necessary throughout the cold chain which is done by various practices in the dairy sector as mentioned in the study. The study in brief provides with the overview of the cold chain supply in dairy industry along with its challenges, applications, present scenario, statistics and assessment of the dairy sector for milk and its value added products from farm to consumers ensuring that there is no breakage of the cold chain until the product reaches the consumers.

India has seen a phenomenal growth and occupies the top three positions in production from last decades in production of horticulture produce, dairy and meat products over the last decade. But at present, India's share in global farm trade is still very small even with such large production volumes. This is mainly caused due to lack of cold chain infrastructure which includes both storage and transportation facilities. The cold chain industry in India is still at a nascent stage and despite large production of perishables, the cold chain potential still remain untapped due to high share of single commodity cold storage, high initial investment (for refrigerator units and land), lack of enabling infrastructure like power & roads, lack of awareness for handling perishable produce and lapse of service either by the storage provider or the transporter leading to poor quality produce. Cold chain systems are crucial to the growth of global trade in perishable products and to the worldwide availability of food and health supplies.

Food supply chain management is becoming a critical management and public policy agenda. Climate change, growing demand, and shifting patterns of food production, delivery, and consumption have elicited a series of new challenges, such as food security, safety, and system resiliency. This chapter first introduces the typical players in a food supply chain and examines the global food system characterized by consolidation and industrialization. It then discusses some critical topics of the sustainable food supply chain that aim to address these challenges. These topics include traceability, transparency, certification and standards, and alternatives to industrialized food systems, including cooperatives, community-supported agriculture, and roles of small and medium-sized growers in regenerative agriculture. The chapter ends with a discussion of several important emerging logistics management topics, including last-mile delivery, new technology, and cold chain management.
