Rajnandgaon district has Chhattisgarh's typical intensive paddy cultivation. A combined operation running a custom-hiring centre for paddy machinery plus a small modern rice mill captures both rental and value-add demand.
Capex of 18-35 lakh covers tractors and paddy implements plus rice-mill equipment, packaging, and 6 months of working capital. NABARD-AIF (Agriculture Infrastructure Fund) plus SMAM (Sub-Mission on Agricultural Mechanisation) jointly fund up to 50% capex. Hard parts: managing seasonal demand peaks, maintenance discipline, and securing paddy supply contracts. Start with custom-hiring center (recurring revenue); rice mill in year 2.
