INDIA'S LARGEST GRAIN MILLING INDUSTRY EVENT

Media Today Group is proud to announce the 4th edition of GrainTech India 2013, widely acknowledged as India's largest International Exhibition on Grains, Cereals, Spices, Oil seeds, feeds, Products & Technologies, scheduled to be held from 23 to 25 August 2013 at Bangalore International Exhibition Centre (BIEC), Bangalore, India.

A concurrent event would be 5th India Foodex 2013, an International Exhibition on Food Products, Processing & Packaging Machinery and Allied Industries. GrainTech India has strong support from prominent Indian agri and food organizations, adding the strength and value to the event. Among the numerous organizations supporting the exhibition are The Solvent Extractors' Association of India, All India Food Processors' Association, Coffee Board, Roller Flour Mills Federation of India, Spices Board India, The Soyabean Processors' Association of India, All India Rice Exporters' Association, Indian Oilseeds and Produce Export Promotion Council, CLFMA of India and Indian Biscuits Manufacturers' Association. The list is, indeed, long!

Indian agriculture is now going through critical times. On the one hand, relying on the strength of Green Revolution strategy and having emerged an exporter of grains and food products, the government is keen to enact a Food Security law to ensure availability of minimum food grains to every individual in the country as his or her own right. On the other hand, the weaknesses in the implementation of the strategy are showing up in a glaring manner. One latest such instance is the huge losses of procured food grains for want of proper storage facilities. The need of the hour is increased productivity of grains and building of an effective supply chain to ensure that what is produced in the farm reaches the consumer in good shape. In fact, what is imperative is to plug every loophole in the food production and distribution system, which means effective use of available technology and building of modern storages.

Significantly, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has been repeatedly emphasizing on the need for technology to tackle various ills facing the farm sector. On Union Agriculture and Food Minister Sharad Pawar's own admission, India wastes food grains worth Rs. 58,000 crore every year because of weaknesses in storage techniques and deficiencies in supply chain. This colossal loss of grains rendered unfit for human consumption is all the more unfortunate in a country where a sizeable section of the population goes to bed hungry. India has over 5000 Rice mills, 1000 Flour milling plants, 200 Soybean plants, 2000 Spices crushing plant, 1500 Pulses mills, 2000 Oilseeds crushing units, 1000 Feed Units, 100 Biofuel and energy projects, 1000 Coffee plants etc., looking for new and better technology to upgrade their manufacturing, processing, packaging line. “GrainTech India 2013” will seek to reduce the technology gap in processing as well as in the supply chain. To feed increasing domestic demand and also to achieve the export targets of food products, Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Food Processing Industry and Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export

Development Authority (APEDA) under the Ministry of Commerce are investing a substantial share of the budget for promoting technological up-gradation and value addition in all segments of Rice, Wheat, Pulses, Oilseeds, Spices, Dairy & Feed and all other food sectors. The last edition of GrainTech India had the participation from over 21 countries around the world like the Netherlands, Turkey, China, Russia, Italy, Indonesia, Thailand, Singapore, Niger, Senegal, France, Spain, Belgium, Nepal, USA, Germany, Taiwan, Cameroon, Burkina Faso, Cote D'Ivoire, Cyprus etc., displaying their comprehensive range of products and technologies in the grain industry. At GrainTech India 2013, you will have opportunity to meet thousands of prominent trade visitors and potential clients to explore business opportunities in Indian and South Asian Grain Milling Industry.
