Rising demand for poultry meat and egg consumption is increasing the poultry production but diseases such as Avian Influenza had negative impact on poultry population
- The Indian poultry industry is one of the largest producers of eggs and broiler meat worldwide. In recent years, the industry has undergone significant transformations, driven primarily by the rise in the consumption of poultry meat and egg, which contributed to a 7.1% increase in poultry production in 2022 from 2017. The country's per capita consumption of poultry meat reached 2.65 kg in 2022, a 13.7% increase from 2017, and the per capita availability of eggs increased to 91 eggs per annum in 2021, four more units than the previous year.
- The Indian poultry market is primarily concentrated in Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, and Telangana, accounting for a significant portion of the country's production. The Indian poultry industry has established itself as a significant player in the global market, with 320,240.46 metric tons of poultry products exported in 2021-22, amounting to USD 71.04 million. Major importers of Indian poultry products include Oman, Maldives, Indonesia, Vietnam, Japan, and Russia.
- The Indian poultry industry faces several challenges. The outbreak of avian influenza and other diseases in poultry led to the culling of birds, resulting in significant financial losses for the industry. The industry is plagued by issues such as high feed costs, inadequate processing and storage facilities, and limited access to credit. To overcome such challenges, the industry requires significant investments in infrastructure and technology and government support. Overall, the increasing demand for poultry meat from importing countries, coupled with rising domestic demand, led to a significant increase in poultry production in India.

India being third largest fish producing country and the surge in demand for seafood as well as the government's initiatives is increasing the aqua feed demand and production
- India's aquaculture industry experienced significant growth due to the surge in demand for seafood, leading to a sudden increase in the aqua feed market. In 2022, the country's aquaculture feed production reached 2.2 million metric tons, a 48.6% increase from 2017-2022, primarily driven by the increasing aquaculture in the country. Fish feed dominates the aqua feed market in India, accounting for 87% of the production in the country in 2022, followed by shrimp feed at 6.6%. The demand for fish is rising domestically and internationally, making it essential for the aqua feed market to maintain the quality of fish in the country.
- India is the world's third-largest fish-producing country, contributing 7.96% to global production. In 2020-21, the country produced 14.7 million metric tons of fish. Andhra Pradesh is the largest fish-feed-consuming state in India, followed by West Bengal, owing to its high fish production.​ Shrimp feed production grew by 75.6% from 2018. The increasing global demand for shrimp led aqua feed manufacturers to produce large quantities of shrimp feed to cater to the demand.
- The increasing demand for seafood, coupled with the government's initiatives and growing investments in the aquaculture sector, such as offering subsidies and incentives for the construction of new ponds, purchasing feeds, and setting up processing units, is expected to fuel the growth of the aqua feed market in India. The expansion of the aqua feed market is expected to support the growth of the Indian economy, create employment opportunities, and contribute to food security.
