Further, India ranks no 2 in the world in the production of Rice, Wheat and several A well-developed food processing sector with higher other vegetables & fruits. Abundant supply of raw materials, level of processing helps in the reduction of wastage, increase in demand for food products and incentives offered improves value addition, promotes crop diversification, by the Government has impacted food processing sector ensures better return to the farmers, promotes employment positively. As Table 1 shows, Annual Growth Rate of Food as well as increases export earnings. This sector is also Processing Industries sector during 2015-16 was 7.00 per capable of addressing critical issues of food security, food cent as compared to around 4.90 per cent in Agriculture and inflation and providing wholesome, nutritious food to the 8.06 per cent in Manufacturing. Food Processing Sector masses. has also emerged as an important segment of the Indian 2.1.1 Contribution of Food Processing Sector to GDP economy in terms of its contribution to GVA, employment and investment. The sector constitutes as much as 8.80 per Over the years agricultural production in India has cent of GVA in Manufacturing and adds 8.39 per cent to the consistently recorded higher output.

It is seen that food products industry, compared to and constitutes 13.72% of employment in the unregistered other industries has the largest number of factories and manufacturing sector. engages largest number of employees as well. Since with respect to fixed capital the food products industry does not Table-4 is compiled from ASI 2013-14 for 18 sub- figure in top five, it shows that this sector is highly labour sectors of food processing industry. In this industry, on an intensive per unit of capital. Despite low capital intensity, average, the fixed capital per registered factory is Rs. 4.50 the output and gross value added of food products are not crore indicating that most of the factories in this sector are compromised as these are third and fifth largest among micro and small enterprises under the definition of Micro, all industries. Thus every unit of capital invested in food Small and Medium Enterprises Development (MSMED) products industry employs largest number of persons as Act, 2006.

The major challenges facing the sector are illustrated below:-

41 These constraints are sought to be addressed under the schemes being implemented by the Ministry, as indicated in subsequent chapters. 2.8 FOOD PROCESSING SECTOR– GROWTH POTENTIAL:

The above illustration indicates the various factors which It is essential to build sustainable supply chains, are likely to increase the demand for processed food which will link the farmer to the processing and marketing in coming years. Programmes to increase the output of centers seamlessly. In the absence of on–farm cooling and Indian agriculture without corresponding investments in grading arrangements and slow development of cold chain processing facilities is likely to lead to a mismatch resulting infrastructure, the farmer is compelled to sell his produce to in rural distress and decline in farmers’ income. The most the ‘Adathiya (Broker)’ without waiting for a better price. If important step for improving the bargaining capacity of the the farmer is enabled to grade and store his produce close to farmer is to add value to his produce. This will come about farm, the farmer will be empowered to demand and obtain if farmers are able to produce according to the requirements a better price from the processors and also add value to his and standards demanded by the market. Food processors produce. and the retailers can provide the necessary demand for Considerable investments are required in rural the agricultural produce and facilitate the flow of market infrastructure and components of the supply chain by way information, technology and inputs to the farmer so that of grading and packing centers, controlled atmosphere, he can tailor his output to the needs of the market. In the storage facilities, reefer vans, testing laboratories, etc., process the farmers will be able to raise their own level of which may not come from private sources at this stage of the income and employment. The consumer is also likely to development of the food processing industry.
