New products, new markets and bilateral outreach behind FY21's unprecedented agri export growth : Commerce Secretary.
Jun 11, 2021

Aggressive expansion of India's agriculture export basket, penetration of new markets and specific focus on particular commodities at a state and district level has led to the stellar performance of agri export in 2020-21, the government has said.
 
After remaining stagnant for the past three years at $38.43 billion in 2017-18, $38.74 billion in 2018-19 and $35.16 billion in 2019-20, the export of agriculture and allied products (including marine and plantation products) jumped to $41.25 billion in 2020-21.
 
In a year riddled with logistics and demand challenges due to the pandemic, this rise of 17.3 percent is because of the Agriculture Export Policy of 2018 being implemented on a decentralised manner, across clusters and districts, Commerce Secretary Anup Wadhawan told reporters on June 10.
