Due to its good backward and forward linkages it provides employment to about 60% of the population and is the main source of livelihood of many households. But there was no significant increase in the production of this industry during the last few years due to various reasons such as lack of cold storage, large chain of commission agents from the grower to consumers in the Kashmir valley as whole.
