Harsimrat Kaur Badal while briefing the media said, "India is the largest producer in so many areas. But unfortunately, we are just processing only 10 per cent of it. Because of which, most of the produce gets wasted. The more India will produce, the less will be wasted.  A lot of work is being done in this field from the past few years."
