According to Inc42, the Indian agricultural sector is projected to grow to US$ 2,400 crores by 2025. India’s food and grocery market is the world’s sixth-largest, with retail contributing 70% of the sales. The Indian FMCG market continues to rise as more people start to move up the economic ladder and the benefits of economic progress become accessible to the general public. Growing awareness, easier access, and changing lifestyles have been the key growth drivers for the sector. The urban segment (which accounts for a revenue share of around 55%) is the largest contributor to the overall revenue generated by the FMCG sector in India. The agriculture sector in India is expected to generate better momentum in the next few years due to increased investment in agricultural infrastructure such as irrigation facilities, warehousing, and cold storage. Furthermore, the growing use of genetically modified crops will likely improve the yield for Indian farmers.
