Analyst Opinion

India, the second-most populous country in the world, is known for its diverse agriculture industry. With over half of the population working in agriculture, the industry is a crucial part of the country's economy. In recent years, the agriculture market in India has been developing in several ways.

Customer preferences:
Indian consumers are becoming more health-conscious, leading to a growing demand for organic and natural produce. Additionally, there has been an increase in demand for processed and packaged foods due to the convenience they offer. As a result, farmers are shifting towards organic farming and investing in processing and packaging facilities.

Trends in the market:
One of the major trends in the Indian agriculture market is the adoption of technology. Farmers are using modern techniques such as precision farming, crop monitoring, and irrigation management to improve their yields and reduce costs. Another trend is the increasing focus on exports, with the government providing incentives to farmers and exporters to boost the country's agricultural exports.

Local special circumstances:
India's agriculture market is heavily influenced by monsoon rains. A good monsoon season leads to higher yields and lower food prices, while a poor season can lead to droughts and food shortages. The government has implemented several policies to mitigate the impact of monsoons, such as crop insurance schemes and subsidies for irrigation facilities.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
India's economy has been growing steadily, leading to an increase in disposable income and a rise in demand for food products. Additionally, the government's focus on agriculture through policies such as the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana and the Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchai Yojana has helped to boost the sector. However, challenges such as land fragmentation, lack of access to credit, and poor infrastructure continue to hamper the growth of the agriculture market in India.In conclusion, the agriculture market in India is developing in several ways, driven by changing customer preferences, adoption of technology, and government policies. While there are challenges that need to be addressed, the sector has the potential to continue to grow and contribute significantly to the country's economy.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2B. Figures are based on the value of gross production in the agriculture market, which values of production are calculated by multiplying gross production by output prices at the farm gate.

Modeling approach:

Market sizes are determined through a bottom-up approach, building on specific predefined factors for each market. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use resources from the Statista platform as well as annual financial reports of the market-leading companies and industry associations, third-party studies and reports, national statistical offices, international institutions, and the experience of our analysts. In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, consumer spending, and consumer price index.

Forecasts:

In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing are well suited for forecasting agriculture products due to the non-linear growth of this market, especially because of the direct impact of climate change on the market.

Additional notes:

The data is modeled using current exchange rates. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. The market is updated twice a year.
