INTRODUCTION

India is the fifth largest economy in the world and expected to be the fastest-growing economy among major G20 countries, with GDP growth estimated to be around 8% in FY24. The food processing sector has become a key contributor to India's economy over the past few years, thanks to progressive policy measures by the Ministry of Food Processing Industries (MoFPI). The sector has performed exceptionally well with an impressive average annual growth rate of 7.3% from 2015 to 2022. It has significantly contributed to Gross Domestic Product (GDP), employment, and investment, accounting for 10.54% of Gross Value Added (GVA) in Manufacturing and 11.57% in Agriculture sector in 2020-21. GVA in Food Processing sector has increased from Rs. 1.61 lakh crore (US$ 24.60 billion) in 2015-16 to Rs. 1.92 lakh crore (US$ 24.43 billion) in 2022-23 (as per First Revised Estimates of Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation).

India's diverse agro-climatic conditions allow for abundant production of cereals, pulses, fruits, and vegetables, making it a leading producer of various foods. India was a global leader in milk production contributing ~25% to global milk production, in 2022-23. The country ranked second in vegetables and fruits and egg production and fifth in meat production, respectively, in 2022-23.

Additionally, India is the largest producer of spices in the world, with 11.26 million tonnes of major spices produced in 2022-23, as per the third advanced estimate by spices board of India. The food processing industry in India is still in its early stages, contributing less than 10% to the total food output. According to a Deloitte study on Level of Food Processing in India, processing levels were at 2.7% for vegetables, 4.5% for fruits, 15.4% for fishery, 21.1% for milk, and 34.2% for meat in 2020-21.

A strong food processing industry is essential for our nation to tackle food and nutritional security issues. Processed food offers convenience, extended shelf life, easy transport to remote areas, and improved accessibility, serving as a valuable source of nourishment. Additionally, it offers our farmers increased opportunities for better price realization and expanded selling prospects.
