USES

Dehydrated onions are used chiefly as a constituent in various food products i.e. they are sold to manufacturing concerns as an industrial raw material and demand for dehydrated onions is a function of the demand of these food products. However there is a demand for dehydrated onions for use as culinary onions, both by large catering concerns - institutions and industrial canteens; and for domestic use.

The other use of dehydrated onions is in the manufacture of dried soups-once virtually the sole outlet for these products, but now declining in relative importance, as other applications including use in canned soups and stews, baby foods, fish, meat and bakery products and more recently in dried `ready-meals' have been developed.

During the last few years the fruit and vegetable processing industry has expanded considerably. Bulk of the production consists of Jams/Jellies, fruit juices/pulps, ready-serve fruit beverages and pickles. The major outlets for the products of this industry are the institutional sectors such as Hotels, Restaurants, Defence Establishment and the Export market. The domestic and house hold sectors consume about 10% of the total production of processed fruits and vegetables. Food processing sector is one of the largest sectors in India in terms of production, growth, consumption, and export. As a whole it is a good project for entrepreneurs for investment. Any entrepreneur venture into this field will be successful.
