Tribal Cooperative Marketing Development Federation of India Ltd. It was set up in 1987, under the Multi State Cooperative Societies Act, 1984.Under its revised mandate TRIFED has stopped bulk procurement in Minor Forest Produce, which is now done by State level tribal cooperative Societies.

The approach of marketing development of tribal products envisages TRIFED’s role as a facilitator and service provider. The philosophy behind this approach is to empower tribal people with knowledge, tools and pool of information so that they can undertake their operations in a more systematic and scientific manner. It involves capacity building of the tribal people through sensitization, formation of Self Help Groups (SHGs) and imparting training to them for undertaking a particular activity, exploring marketing possibilities in national as well as international markets, creating opportunities for marketing tribal products on a sustainable basis, creating a brand and providing other services.

  • Ministry of Tribal Affairs, Govt of India shall be the Nodal Ministry for implementation and monitoring of the scheme. Ministry of Tribal Affairs shall announce Minimum Support Price (MSP) for the selected MFPs with the technical support from TRIFED.
  • TRIFED shall be Central Nodal Agency for implementation of the scheme through State level implementing agencies.

The basic component of the scheme includes declaration of MSP for notified MFPs by the Central Government based on the recommendation of the Pricing Cell set up within TRIFED.
