A STATUS OF INDIA GRAIN SECTOR
India’s Food and Grain Industry: Scaling New Heights
India stands today as the world’s fastest-growing major economy, with an impressive annual growth rate exceeding 7.8% and a GDP of over USD 2.5 trillion. Backed by a population of 1.4 billion, growing at about 1.5% annually, the nation maintains robust foreign exchange reserves of USD 595 billion and a combined export-import trade value of over USD 700 billion.
Agriculture continues to play a vital role, contributing around 15% to India’s GDP. The country ranks as the second-largest producer of rice and wheat and the largest producer of pulses. India also produces vast quantities of millets, maize, soybeans, and other grains, making its milling industry one of the most vibrant in the world. Each year, about 200 million tonnes of grains are processed across more than 400,000 workers employed in this sector. The industry is characterized by a blend of traditional practices and modern technology, though it remains highly fragmented—with thousands of small and medium-scale units spread across the nation.
