Minister of Food Processing Industries, Harsimrat Kaur Badal said agreements worth USD 10 billion were expected to
be signed during the three-day global event. "Our demand of food is set to double over the next five years. Being the
sixth largest food and grocery market in the world, India is a destination that merits global attention in the food
sector." said Ms.Badal.
India simplified the regulatory mechanism for food products
The Food Safety Standards Authority (FSSAI) of India has come up with standards that meet the global benchmarks
that are simple and easy to understand. Details of the regulation were discussed at a session called ‘One Nation –
One Food Law’. The new tool called ‘Food Regulatory Portal’ was launched by the FSSAI. The portal is expected to be
a game changer for effective and transparent implementation of the food safety laws in India.
"Food processing is going to be one of the principal industries of India in future, and an entrepreneur in 2017 should
think of the industry from the perspective of where it will be in 2040, 2050." Finance Minister, Arun Jaitley said. In
terms of market size, the Indian food market was worth USD 193 billion and is expected to reach USD 540 billion in
2020, as the Indian officials reported.
Silent revolution ongoing in the Indian food sector
Prime Minister Narenda Modi said the food sector that allows 100 per cent foreign investment is the priority of the government’s ‘Make In India’ programme
MONTHLY BULLETIN │ NAFTC TURKEY
Launching a three-day conference, World
Food India 2017, Mr. Modi told that the
Government had taken a range of
transformational initiatives to make the
country a more preferred destination for
investment. "It is a priority sector in our
'Make in India' programme. 100 per cent
Foreign Direct Investment is now
permitted for trading including through e-
commerce of food products
manufactured or produced in India," Mr.
Modi said. In this speech, he also
emphasized the immense potential of
food processing especially in niche areas
such as organic and fortified foods.
Japanese car manufacturer Suzuki
Motor and ISE Foods set up a joint
venture for entering the Indian egg
market. The parties will open an
advanced farm of 1.2 million chickens
and a processing plant in the Indian
state of Gujarat. In addition to fresh
eggs, the plant will produce liquid and
powdered eggs for use as cooking
ingredients. ISE Food will control the
management of the farm and
production. Suzuki’s local unit, Maruti
Suzuki India controls half of India’s
passenger car market which will

Cargill. one of leading global food and agriculture players, announced that it will
invest USD 240 million in India over the next five years. The announcement was
made by Peter Van Deursen, the CEO of Cargill Asia Pacific. Mr. Van Deursen said
that India is an important market for Cargill, and this increased investment
demonstrates their commitment to the country and the development of the Indian
agriculture and food processing industry.
The investment will be made on edible oil, cocoa and chocolates, starches,
sweeteners and animal nutrition fields in India. The investment is expected to
provide employment for 1,300 people. Previously, Cargill inaugurated its first wet
corn milling plant in India. The plant costed USD 100 million. In addition, the
company also inaugurated a dairy plant in Bathinda and a business services center
in Bengaluru in 2015, which employs about 2,000 people.

Cargill to invest USD 240 million in India
owing to years of experience in India. In addition, Suzuki might provide vehicles for transportation. In time, the joint
venture hopes to take around 5% share of the Indian egg market.
one of the
largest
producers of
milk and value-
added milk
products
Dr. Ramanan Laxminarayan, the Director of Center for Disease
Dynamics, Economics & Policy, said that most of poultry feed
available in the Indian market was medicated, however, majority of
farmers were not aware the presence of antibiotic growth
promoters premixed in chicken feed.
Although the use of antibiotics to promote animal growth has been
long banned in Europe, India has no such regulation. Therefore,
unregulated availability of antibiotics is in bulk and tracking
mechanism to map production and consumption is not available.
Private and cooperative sector dairies in India are increasingly adopting the
latest tagging and tracking technologies to supervise the productivity, monitor
milk supplies and take corrective steps to meet market demands quickly
MONTHLY BULLETIN │ NAFTC TURKEY
Indian dairies are increasingly using technology for supervising productivity
Individual cow identification is a tool that
enables its users to track animals and
their associated records. The technology
relies on being able to distinguish animals
and therefore manage their records
independently.
Amul and Chitale Dairy are the early
adopters of tagging radio frequency
identifications. These companies have
been using this for nearly decade. Hatsun
Agro and Dodla Dairy are among newer
ones that adopted these steps.
India is the world’s largest producer of
milk and has the highest cattle
population globally with a share of 30%.
Antibiotics use by India’s poultry farms endangering human lives, says expert
