It is interesting to note that the roads leading to Indian Farms in any rural area is generally kacha made up from local soil, sand and stones. It leads to various problems including safety, environmental, wastage of energy, lesser efficiency, problem in delivery of seeds, pesticides, and fertilizer to the farms and so forth, similarly finished products to the markets.

Indian cooperatives are pervasive in farmers' rural life to the extent 100% villages are covered by some kind of cooperative society. Farmers themselves may extend the scheme to the basic infrastructure need to construct & maintain road
