  2. MoDoNER Agenda • Overview • Production of Fruits & Vegetables • Huge Wastage • Constraints • Thrust areas • Supportive policies of GoI • Basic Parameters of Good Food Processing Industry Policy • Discussions

  3. MoDoNER Overview Food is the largest consumption category in India Food is the largest consumption category in India Food is the largest consumption category in India Food is the largest consumption category in India Food is the largest consumption category in India Food is the largest consumption category in India Food is the largest consumption category in India Food is the largest consumption category in India Food is the largest consumption category in India Food is the largest consumption category in India India produces 9% of world’s fruits and 11% of World’s Vegetables India produces 9% of world’s fruits and 11% of World’s Vegetables India produces 9% of world’s fruits and 11% of World’s Vegetables India produces 9% of world’s fruits and 11% of World’s Vegetables India produces 9% of world’s fruits and 11% of World’s Vegetables India produces 9% of world’s fruits and 11% of World’s Vegetables India produces 9% of world’s fruits and 11% of World’s Vegetables India produces 9% of world’s fruits and 11% of World’s Vegetables India produces 9% of world’s fruits and 11% of World’s Vegetables However, only 2% of fruits and vegetables in India are processed However, only 2% of fruits and vegetables in India are processed However, only 2% of fruits and vegetables in India are processed However, only 2% of fruits and vegetables in India are processed However, only 2% of fruits and vegetables in India are processed However, only 2% of fruits and vegetables in India are processed However, only 2% of fruits and vegetables in India are processed Huge wastages, estimated at about 35%, the value of which is approx. Rs.33,000 crore annually Huge wastages, estimated at about 35%, the value of which is approx. Rs. 33,000 crore annually Huge wastages, estimated at about 35%, the value of which is approx. Rs. 33,000 crore annually Huge wastages, estimated at about 35%, the value of which is approx. Rs. 33,000 crore annually Huge wastages, estimated at about 35%, the value of which is approx. Rs. 33,000 crore annually Despite strong raw material base India is unable to tap potential for processing and value adding in perishables like fruits and vegetables Despite strong raw material base India is unable to tap potential for processing and value adding in perishables like fruits and vegetables Despite strong raw material base India is unable to tap potential for processing and value adding in perishables like fruits and vegetables

  7. Segment • India Other Countries Fruits and Vegetables • 2.2% US A (65 %), Philippines (78%) China (23)%; Marine • 26% 60-70% in developed countries Poultry • 6% Buffalo Meat • 20% Milk 35% 60-75% in developed countries Food Processing Sector in India Huge wastage across the supply chain leads to lower level of processing and hence low value addition… Field Losses (Pest,Diseases, Rodents etc) Level of Processing across Segments Pre-Processing (e.g. inefficient harvesting, drying, milling) Transport (e.g. spillage, leakage) Storage (e.g. technical deficiencies) Processing & Packaging (e.g. excessive peeling, washing) Marketing (e.g. spoilage, rotting in stores) Wastage by Consumer (e.g. over eating, food wastage)

  8. MoDoNER Perceived Constraints • Low incomes and high share of basic foods in household consumption. • Socio-cultural factors – Preference for freshly plucked fruits. • Low productivity, high wastage. • Inadequate infrastructure for sorting / grading / packing. • Lack of trained manpower for processing storage, marketing, branding. • APMC Act which restricts sourcing materials from farmers. • Lack of common policy on Contract Farming. • Low access to credit to farmers. • Inability to attract investment by large corporate houses due to unreliable sources of supply of raw material.

  9. MoDoNER Thrust areas Enhanced income of farmers Increased level of processing of perishables from 6% to 20% Increased value addition from 20% to 35% Increased share in global food trade from 1.5% to 3% in next 15 years Promote dynamic/competitive food processing industry Achieve integration of food processing infrastructure from farm to market Have transparent and industry friendly regulatory regime

  10. MoDoNER Supportive Policies of GoI 1 NEIPP 2007 for industry including Food Processing Industry 2 Transport Subsidy Scheme and Horticulture Mission for NE & Himalaya States 3 Development of products and processes for secondary agriculture, food industry and bio-processing sectors 4 Infrastructure Development and Technological Upgradation 5 Quality Control / R&D, H.R & Institutional Development

  11. MoDoNER Felt needs in NER Promote Nutrition Foods Processable variety of Crops Increase Promotional Activities Support Backward Integration Market Access to Farmers Investment in Hard/Soft Infrastructure Technology Upgradation Harmonisation of Taxes

  12. MoDoNER Discussion to follow:- • Preparation of action plan – identify fruits and vegetables with potential for food processing in specific North East States / Areas. • How to promote agro based / food processing sector in NER – put in place a model supply chain by bringing in farmers, traders, processors, extension machinery and R&D Institutes together. • Amendments (if required) in existing policies – in NEIPP 2007, TSS 1971, to promote the agro based sector/industries. • How to attract investment including FDI in the sector. • Suitability of for autonomous industry driven boards for individual crops. • Need for preferential treatments / liberalising excise regime / reducing excise duties of Centre / States for individual products such as Pineapple in Tripura.

  13. Ultimately ? Can our discussion lead to a strategy which is not fragmented Ministry / Scheme wise but encompasses all aspects of a dynamic food processing sector in NER ?
