1.10.3. Grading and Standardization

♤ The government has done much to grade and standardize many agricultural goods. Under the Agricultural Produce (Grading and Marketing) Act the Government has set up grading stations for commodities like ghee, flour, eggs, etc. The graded goods are stamped with the seal of the Agricultural Marketing Department -AGMARK. The "Agmark" goods have a wider market and command better prices.
