The Market
With a population of almost 1.31 billion people and a GDP of about 2.3 trillion USD (2016) India is one of Asia’s most attractive market. Agriculture employs more than half of the country’s population, most of which are small-scale and subsistence farmers. India is the second largest producer of rice in the world with an expected export volume of over 4 mio. tons in 2017-2018. Apart from rice, the main cash crops are wheat, cotton, cane, turmeric, oilseeds, fruits and vegetables.
Despite the fact that the Indian agro industry is largely supplied by the domestic companies, many new opportunities exist for foreign companies, especially, producers of modern technology and inputs. Due to limited availability of arable land against growing population, huge opportunities exists for inputs like seeds and plant growth nutrients.
