India’s meat and poultry sector showing steady growth; has potential to meet world’s protein demand

08 Jun 2011 Evaluate

The Minister of State for Ministry of Food Processing Industries (MOFPI), Harish Rawat opined that production of meat and meat products has been steadily growing at the rate of 4% per annum while meat exports have been growing at close to 30% per annum in terms of quantity. India, with the largest livestock population in the world has the capability to meet the world’s protein demand with ease, which in turn will improve the economic levels of animal breeders, meat workers, processors and exporters.

Rawat also highlighted that the real challenge for the ministry is to improve other municipal slaughter houses located in semi-urban areas numbering 3,500 and also for establishing mini slaughterhouses in rural areas were more than 80% of the country’s population is living and are lacking sufficient funds for investment to improve the existing conditions.” The Ministry of Food Processing Industries has a scheme to give grants for construction and modernization of slaughterhouses in such cases.

While, MOFPI Secretary Ashok Sinha informed an investment of around Rs 4,000-5,000 crore is required in the meat and poultry processing sector. Even as, exports of value added meat products remain insignificant, Sinha was of the belief that a lot more needs to be done to modernize this sector. Although the sector has strong untapped potential, yet it has not been able to achieve the desired growth due to different marketing mechanisms, no value additions and low investment in processing facilities.

The National Conference for Mayors was organized for the benefit of meat and poultry sector of the country and also for making decisive efforts for production of hygiene and nutritious meat and poultry products. Mayors, Municipal Commissioners, Chairman of APEDA and experts from meat and poultry sector took part in the daylong deliberations.
