Horticultural Producers' Cooperative Marketing and Processing Society
Horticultural Producers' Cooperative Marketing and Processing Society, popularly known by its acronym, HOPCOMS, is a farmers' society founded in 1965 for the direct marketing of farm produces. The society is headquartered in Lalbagh, Bengaluru, in the south Indian state of Karnataka and its activities are spread in the districts of Bangalore Urban, Bangalore Rural, Kolar, Ramanagar and Chikkaballapura.〔
==Overview==
The origin of HOPCOMS was in 1959 when Mari Gowda, the then director of the department of horticulture, founded the ''Bangalore Grape Growers’ Marketing and Processing Co-operative Society'' for promoting grape farming by providing farming know how to the grape farmers and arranging a marketing set up for their products. The society had its operations in Bangalore, Kolar, Mysore, Tumkur, Mandya and Mangalore districts. A few years later, the society started dealing in other farm produces and re-branded itself as the Horticultural Producers’ Co-operative Marketing and Processing Society in 1965, registering itself as a cooperative society.〔 It comes under the jurisdiction of the department of horticulture, Government of Karnataka.〔
The main activity of the society is the maintenance of a marketing system by which the farmers are ensured of a good price for their produces and the consumers are provided with quality goods at affordable prices.〔 The society has eliminated the middle men and acts as the only link between the farmers and the consumers.〔 As of March 2014, the society has a paid up capital of 26.59 million composed of Class A (farmers), Class B (NGOs, institutions) and Class C (government) shares and a member strength of 12,680 farmers. The organization is managed by a board of directors, reporting to the department of horticulture of the Government of Karnataka. Eleven of the 15 member board are elected from the farmers while the state government has three appointed officers and a nominee on the board.〔 It employs 650 permanent staff and 790 temporary workers.〔 The President is elected from the Class A members while the Managing Director is an appointee of the state government.〔
