Karnataka Bank has signed a memorandum of understanding with the National Collateral Management Services Ltd (NCMSL) for warehousing services.
Under this agreement, the bank will offer financing against the godown receipts/cold storage receipts issued by NCMSL under its ‘KBL-Krishik Bhandar’ scheme.
A press release said here on Thursday that generally during harvesting season, the price of the agriculture produce will be at a lower level. Hence, farmers can store their agriculture produce in the godowns/cold storages of NCMSL.
In the off-season, farmers can sell the produce in the market at a higher price. Hence, they will benefit by availing finance under this scheme.
