摘要:Traditionally, warehousing involves the storage of raw material, work-in-process inventory or finished goods in a covered space in the most suitable way for a specific time period. It also adds temporal and spatial significance to the value of the commodity. Storage implies preserving. It is the process of carrying surplus production for future consumption. It includes all types of storage, whether traditional method or scientific methods of storage, whether controlled or ambient and maintained by the private or public agencies. On the other hand, warehousing means scientific facilities for storage of commodities, generally combined with the elements of trade and profit. The storage is, thus, a broader term and warehousing forms a part of it. The study is based on mainly secondary data and for some information primary data was collected through personal interviews of CWC employees. For secondary data CWC annual reports of last three years and internet surfing was used. In achieving food security besides producing enough food grains, proper and adequate storage and maintenance of the produced grain is equally important. Key words: Warehousing, Agencies, India
