South Salmara-Mankachar is one of Assam's most flood-vulnerable char (river-island) districts with traditional agriculture (paddy, jute, vegetables). A combined operator running a small char-agro processing unit plus an aggregation service captures the unique river-island economy.
Capex of 8-18 lakh covers basic processing equipment, packaging, and 6 months of working capital. NABARD-AIF plus PMFME jointly fund up to 60% capex for char-area producers. Hard parts: monsoon flooding (severe), char-island logistics, and managing climate risk. Realistic: seasonal operating model with strong monsoon contingency.
