    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

    The agro and food industry plays an important role in contributing to the development of

    the economy. This industry is particularly seen as a potential source for driving the rural

    economy as it encourages symbiotic relationship between the consumer, industry and

    agriculture.

    The Indian food services industry has witnessed strong growth over the past few years

    .Indian food industry currently stands at Rs 247,680 crore (US$ 39.71 billion) and is

    expected to peg the Rs 408,040 crore (US$ 65.41 billion) mark by 2018, registering a

    growth of 11 per cent, according to a report titled 'India Food Service Report 2013' by

    National Restaurant Association of India (NRAI). Domestically spending on food

    products forms 21% of the gross domestic product of the country(2010 figures). In terms

    of consumer spending it takes up 31% share of the consumer's wallet.

    In order to ensure the growth potential sector, the Government has initiated extensive

    reforms. Some of them include amendments to certain existing laws such as amendment

    of the Agriculture Produce Marketing Committee Act, implementation of the National

    Horticulture mission etc. To promote investments in this sector, the Government allows

    100% FDI in the food processing and cold chain infrastructure segments. In spite of the

    initiatives taken by the Government, productivity is very low in the country. However,

    still the industry is showing a strong upward trend, given the rising disposable incomes of

    a growing population, a greater number of younger people, the growth of consumers in

    smaller towns and an increased propensity of eating outside home.

    With a growing agriculture sector, healthy livestock, and cost competitiveness, India is

    fast emerging as a sourcing hub of processed food. The Agro and Food processing

    industry has become a catalyst for the development of Indian agriculture and is of

    enormous significance to development. According to CII figures, the food-processing

    industry has the potential of attracting US $33 billion investment in 10 years and will be

    in the process of generating employment to the tune of 9 million man-days. Hence this is

    clearly a very attractive sector for investment and offers significant growth potential to

    investors.

    Technological trends and Innovations in Food and agro Industry

    Challenges arises in the creation and functioning of food and agro industries and for the

    need of continued growth we need to go for innovative approaches using different models

    for the organizations in India.

    1) Amul Cooperative Model:

    Ownership here lies with farmers on a cooperative basis. Its a 3 tier organization

    structure with primary cooperative at primary level, cooperative union at district level

    and cooperative federation at state level.

    This model has helped in the efficient distribution network for marketing of milk and

    milk products and maintains the supply chain network.

    Changes in Technological trends include development of new products, processing

    technology, and measures to enhance milk production and quality and e-commerce.

    2)Suguna Poultry: Model was called the contract broiler farming or a form of franchise

    farming wherein the farmers who own the land and have access to resources such as

    water ,electricity and labor. Processes of growing the chickens are standardized and mustconform to exacting standards laid down by suguna. This protects the interests of both

    farmers and integrators (Suguna).This model benefitted large numbers of rural

    a whole. At the outset, the author outlines the fact that a few years ago India had the

    capacity to become the food factory of the world. However presently growth of this

    sector has been reduced due to a host of problems like poor infra structure, restriction in

    production facilities, arcane production techniques etc.Against this backdrop however,

    there are some specific segments in the food and agro industry which are booming like

    for the country.

    c) Recommendations for the Fruits and vegetables industry: Suggests measures to reduce

    the wastage in fruits and vegetables that occurs. Requires capital inputs for food

    processing.

    d) Recommendations for the Distribution Segment : Suggests infusion of capital inputs

    Certifications such as CODEX, HACCP and ISO. Hazard Analysis and Critical

    Control Points (HACCP) is basically a food quality management system,

    provided as an important CODEX Guideline for Food Processing Companies.

    Example: In India, 0.2 ppm of Lead Content is considered safe, although as per

    the International Standards, a value of 0.02 ppm is considered safe.

    3. Agreement on Technical Barriers to Trade:This agreement ensures thatprocedural issues such as Regulations, Standards, Testing and Certifications do

    not act as Technical Barriers to trade for Food and Agro Products.

    Example: Packaging, Use Of Labels, Gums, Dyes, etc.

    4. Agreement on Antidumping:This agreement determines the conditions forwhich a product will be dumped and states all the relevant procedures and

    situations.

    Example: A Product will be dumped(product price at importing country less than

    the product price at exporting country) into a second country only when the

    export price of the product from the first country to the second country is less than

    the comparable price for a similar product when destined for consumption in the

    second country.

    As per the WTO agreements, the food processing and agro industries in India, need to

    follow international standards and norms in all their producing, storage and packaging

    activities. Also the government of India needs to follow the policies recommended by

    WTO for better liberalization and better efficiency of the market.

    Competition from Foreign Firms, Foreign Direct Investments, Imports,

    Opportunities in Overseas Markets

    Indian Food Industry currently stands at Rs. 247,680 Cr. It is expected to grow at an

    overwhelming rate of 11% and touch Rs. 408,040 Cr. by the year 2018. This growth is

    accounted to a large extent by Foreign Firms involved in FDI. At present India has plenty

    of Foreign Food Processing Firms, such as Nestle, Pepsi, Coke, NissinMet, Unilever,

    GSK, Walmart, etc. to name a few, providing tough competition to domestic firms such

    as ITC, Britannia, Dabur, Amul, Parle, etc. Plenty of Foreign MNCs are planning to enter

    the Food Processing Sector and plenty of the existing foreign firms, such as Nissin Foods,

    are planning to expand their production capacity and product line. Estimates say, there

    has been a total $1970.09 Million FDI from the year 2000-2013 in the Food Processing

    Sector.

    Imports are not of a significant proportion and exist only for some specialised products

    such as Pasta Products, Sauces and Dressings, Honey, etc.
