Jan 10, 2024

India's focus should be on export of large-scale food processing rather than exporting only raw materials, commerce and industry minister Piyush Goyal said on Monday. ??He remained optimistic about agriculture exports during the current fiscal topping last year's $53 billion, despite restrictions on shipments of certain key commodities, including rice, wheat and sugar. ??With special mention of social media influencers for promoting Indian culinary and cuisines, he stated that the diverse food culture has given India a global recognition
 
India's focus should be on export of large-scale food processing rather than exporting only raw materials, commerce and industry minister Piyush Goyal said on Monday.
 
He remained optimistic about agriculture exports during the current fiscal topping last year's $53 billion, despite restrictions on shipments of certain key commodities, including rice, wheat and sugar.
 
'Food exports from India hold an immense potential. This is the time for India for a fusion of technology and taste,' said Goyal.
 
Goyal highlighted India's strengths as the fastest-growing large economy, attributing the success to solid macroeconomic foundations and a youthful demographic dividend. He further emphasised on street foods and the indigenous food culture of India.
 
With special mention of social media influencers for promoting Indian culinary and cuisines, he stated that the diverse food culture has given India a global recognition. 'When I go to different parts of the country, and they offer their local delicacies, it is truly mouth watering... each of these products is unique in itself. The social media influencers have also helped people to recognise these products,' he added.
