GENERAL STATUS OF FOOD PROCESSING SECTOR
2.1. OVERVIEW OF THE FOOD
PROCESSING SECTOR:
A well-developed food processing sector with higher
level of processing helps in the reduction of wastage,
improves value addition, promotes crop
diversification, ensures better return to the farmers,
promotes employment as well as increases export
earnings. This sector is also capable of addressing
critical issues of food security, food inflation and
providing wholesome, nutritious food to the masses.
2.1.1. C O N T R I B U T I O N OF FOOD
PROCESSING SECTOR TO GDP:
the production of Rice, Wheat and several other
vegetables & fruits. Abundant supply of raw
materials, increase in demand for food products and
incentives offered by the Government has impacted
food processing sector positively. As Table 1 shows
the food processing sector has been on average
growing at a faster rate than agriculture sector (from
2011-12 to 2015-16). During the last 4 years ending
2015-16, food processing sector has been growing at
an Average Annual Growth Rate (AAGR) of around
2.88 per cent as compared to around 1.88 per cent in
Agriculture and 6.61 per cent in Manufacturing at
2011-12 Prices. Food Processing Sector has also

Pulses, Ginger, Bananas, Guavas, Papayas and
Mangoes. Further, India ranks no. 2 in the world in
emerged as an important segment of the Indian
economy in terms of its contribution to GDP,
employment and investment. The sector constitutes
as much as 8.71 per cent and 10.04 per cent of GVA in
Manufacturing and Agriculture sector respectively
in 2015-16 at 2011-12 prices.

Considerable investments are required in
rural infrastructure and components of the supply
chain by way of grading and packing centers,
controlled atmosphere, storage facilities, reefer
vans, testing laboratories, etc., which may not come
from private sources at this stage of the development
of the food processing industry. It is therefore
essential that public investment is significantly
increased to fund these components of rural
infrastructure to enable private enterprise to take up
the remaining components of the supply chain which
can be undertaken commercially. This is borne out
by the experience of developed countries where the
state has stepped in to build rural infrastructure in a
big way. Carefully calibrated subsidies, exploring
innovative strategies, empowering rural producers &
consumers through better awareness and support to
entrepreneurs in terms of technology and training are
some of the ways in which this Ministry has
catalyzed growth in this sector.

 CHAPTER - 3
STRATEGY & INITIATIVES TO
PROMOTE FOOD PROCESSING SECTOR
3.1. Food processing sector faces a set of unique
problems which have a direct bearing on the strategy
and required intervention for the development of the
sector. The processors in this sector deal with
seasonal perishable materials which need to be
processed in a short period before it is spoiled.
As the sector mainly consist of tiny, micro & small
units, neither they are able to generate adequate
surplus for their expansion nor invest in supporting
infrastructure. Therefore, the sector needs support
for creation of infrastructure and targeted incentives
to attract investment for creation of processing
capacity. To address these issues, considerable
investment are required in different components of
the supply chain by way of grading and packing
centers, controlled atmosphere facilities, reefer vans,
cold storage for perishable cargo at port/ airport/
railway stations, testing laboratories and other
supporting infrastructure & services such as setting
up of testing laboratories, research & development,
imparting skill training, marketing support etc.
3.2. STRATEGY:
The Ministry has been following a set of
strategy to address the problem of food processing
sector. Some of the key elements of the strategy are
as under:
(i) Promoting cluster approach for intervention
in the sector in view of the progressive
reduction of farm size and preponderance of
tiny processing units as well as the inability of
individual entrepreneurs to sustain viable
infrastructure facility at different stages in
value chain;
(ii) Financial support and fiscal incentives
for creation of common supply chain
infrastructure viz. cold chain, dry storage,
packaging, logistics, back & front end
infrastructure, expansion of processing
capacities etc. to reduce cost of investment,
enhance viability and ensure higher
conformity to regulatory standards;
(iii) Introduction of measures to lower capital cost
of the projects and reduce cost of formal
credit to make it affordable to both organized
& unorganized sector;
(iv) Promoting processing clusters and creating
strong backward and forward linkages from
farm gate to retails outlet through various
measures including setting up of Mega Food
Parks / Processing Clusters with appropriate
fiscal and financial incentives;
(v) Promoting institutes of national importance
to create pool of technical manpower and
skilled workforce to meet the growing need
of the sector;
(vi) Support creation and provision of services
like R&D, testing, quality improvement,
47
 marketing and enhancing competitiveness of
the sector through promotion of innovations
in products and processes, environment
friendly packaging etc;
(vii) Creating adequate infrastructure for food
testing and training manpower for food
safety, and promoting adoption of best
practices in the industry in food production,
processing, packaging, storage and

Goods and Services Tax (GST):
As per the latest revision in the GST rates, of
the all food categories taken together under different
chapter heads / sub-heads, 31.46% of the food items
have been exempted from GST (0%) and 34.26% of
the food items shall attract GST of 5%. In other
words, almost 66% of the food items will be under
lowest tax slab of 0% or 5%. These items constitute
bulk of raw material that goes into further value
addition. Hence cost of production of processed item
is expected to fall. Only 16.08% of the total food
items under different chapter heads / sub-heads will
fall under GST slab of 12%. Similarly, 16.08% of the
total food items under different chapter heads / sub-
heads will fall under GST slab of 18%. The
remaining 2.09% of the items under different heads /
sub-heads attract GST of 28%. Lowest GST for food
products is likely to have positive impact on food
processing sector and prices of food products.
3.4. PROMOTING PRIVATE INVESTMENT:
Ministry of Food Processing Industries have
been promoting private investment through direct
intervention by providing grant-in-aid under
different schemes. The various components and
channel of funding have undergone changes over the
years but the underlying strategy is to strengthen
supply chain and create enabling infrastructure to
attract private investment in food processing sector.
Some of the schemes implemented by the Ministry
are given in the following paragraphs:
3.4.1. MEGA FOOD PARK SCHEME:
Mega Food Parks Scheme, being
implemented since 2008, aims to create a modern
50
food processing infrastructure for the processing
units based on a cluster approach and on a hub and
spoke model in a demand driven manner. The
scheme intends to facilitate establishment of an
integrated value chain, with food processing at the
core and supported by requisite forward and
backward linkages. The central processing center is
networked with the primary processing centers and
collection centers located at the farm gate in
production areas. The broader idea behind the
scheme is to bring together farmers, processors and
retailers and link agricultural production to the
market so as to ensure maximization of value
addition, minimization of wastages and improving
farmers' income. The time schedule for completion
and operationalization of project is 30 months from
the date of issuance of final approval unless extended
by Inter- Ministerial Approval Committee (IMAC).
3.4.2. SCHEME FOR INTEGRATED COLD
CHAIN AND VALUE ADDITION
INFRASTRUCTURE
The Scheme for Integrated Cold Chain and
Value Addition Infrastructure was launched during
2008. The scheme is intended to provide integrated
cold chain, preservation and value addition
infrastructure facilities without any break, from the
farm gate to the consumer in order to reduce post-
harvest losses of horticulture and non-horticulture
agri-produce. This will enable linking groups of
producers to processors and market through a well-
equipped supply and cold chain, thereby ensuring
remunerative prices to farmers and year-round
availability of food products to consumers.
Integrated cold chain and value addition
infrastructure projects can be set up by Partnership /
Proprietorship Firms, Companies, Corporations,
Cooperatives, Self Help Groups (SHGs), Farmer
Producer Organizations (FPOs), NGOs, Central /
State PSUs, etc. with business interest in cold chain
solutions and also by those who manage supply
chain.
3.4.3. S C H E M E F O R S E T T I N G U P /
MODERNIZATION OF ABATTOIRS:
Ministry had launched a comprehensive
scheme for modernization of abattoirs across the
country in the year 2008-09 to give a fillip to up
gradation of technology to ensure hygienic
slaughtering of animals for meat processing. The
scheme provides for implementation of projects with
the involvement of local bodies (Municipal
Corporations and Panchayats) / Public Sector
Undertakings / Co-operatives / Boards under
Government and private investors on PPP basis.
Regulatory functions continue to be discharged
through local bodies. Under the scheme, so far 12
abattoir projects have been completed and 25
projects are under implementation. The scheme has
since been discontinued but provision has been made
to meet the committed liabilities.
3.4.4. S C H E M E F O R T E C H N O L O G Y

Ministry extended financial assistance in the form of
grants-in-aid to the implementing agencies /

CONTROL / FOOD TESTING
LABORATORIES:
Manufacture of quality food requires strict
adherence to various aspects of Total Quality
Management (TQM) such as quality control, quality
system and quality assurance in an integrated
fashion. These are vital for reaching the world
market as well as to avoid being swamped by
imported food items with the increase in awareness
about the quality of food products particularly
among the growing middle class, there is now a more
evolved class of domestic consumers for whom
quality, nutrition and safety are non-negotiable.
Therefore, a network of laboratories assumes
importance for carrying out various tests required to
support the food safety regulatory activities and help
the food processing industry to comply with quality
control measures. MoFPI aims at promoting setting
51
up of a network of laboratories to help in
implementing quality regime for processed food.
Under the Scheme for setting up / upgradation of
quality control and testing laboratories. Central /
State Government and their organizations /
Government universities (including Govt. owned
deemed universities) are extended grant-in-aid for
the entire cost of the laboratory equipment for setting
up food testing labs. In addition, they are also eligible
for 25% of the cost of technical civil works to house
the equipment and furniture and fixtures associated
with the equipment, for general areas, and 33% of the
cost for difficult areas. They are also eligible for 80%
of monthly emoluments of two technical staff for two
52
years from the date of completion of the laboratory.
All other implementing agencies / private sector
organizations / universities including deemed
universities are eligible for grant-in-aid of 50% of
cost of laboratory equipment and 25% of the cost of
technical civil works to house the equipment and
furniture and fixtures associated with the equipment
for general areas and 70% of cost of laboratory
equipment and 33% of cost of technical civil works
and furniture and fixtures associated with the
equipment for difficult areas. When the Ministry
establishes / sponsors such food testing laboratories,
there is no ceiling on financial assistance.

INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT IN FOOD
PROCESSING SECTOR
In order to address the problems of
infrastructural constraints in the food-processing
sector, the Ministry of Food Processing Industries is
implementing two schemes and PMKSY viz.
Schemes for development of Mega Food Parks and
Infrastructure for Agro-Processing Clusters. While
these two schemes differ in terms of size scale of
investment and other parameters, both Mega Food
Park and Agro-Processing Clusters facilitate
effective Backward & Forward linkages and offer
developed industrial plots with basic enabling
infrastructure to set up food processing units.
5.1.
MEGA FOOD PARKS:
The Scheme of Mega Food Park envisages a
well-defined agri / horticultural-processing zone
containing state-of-the art processing facilities with
support infrastructure and well-established supply
chain.
5.1.1.
OBJECTIVES:
The objectives of the scheme are as follows:
a) Provide modern infrastructure for food
processing units in the country in
selected clusters to be identified in a
demand driven manner;
b) Ensure value addition of agricultural
commodities including poultry, meat,
dairy, fisheries etc.;
c) Establish a sustainable raw material
supply chain for each cluster;
d) Facilitate induction of the latest
technology;
e) Address the issues of small and medium
nature of processing industries through a
cluster approach with stakeholders
managing the supply chain;
f) Provide an institutional mechanism for
producers, processors, and retailers to
work together to build the supply chain;
5.1.2. PROJECT COMPONENTS:
(i) The scheme aims to facilitate the
establishment of a strong food processing
industry backed by an efficient supply chain,
which includes Collection Centers, Primary
Processing Centers (PPC), Central
Processing Center (CPC) and Cold Chain
infrastructure.
(ii) Collection Centers and Primary Processing
Centers (PPC): These components have
facility for cleaning, grading, sorting and
packing facilities, dry warehouses,
specialized cold stores including pre-cooling
chambers, ripening chambers, reefer vans,
mobile pre-coolers, mobile collection vans
etc.
69
(iii) Central Processing Centers (CPC): Includes
common facilities like Testing Laboratory,
Cleaning, Grading, Sorting and Packing
Facilities, Dry Warehouses, specialized
storage facilities including Controlled
Atmosphere Chambers, Pressure Ventilators,
Variable Humidity Stores, Pre-cooling
Chambers, Ripening Chambers, Cold Chain
Infrastructure including Reefer Vans,
Packaging Unit, Irradiation Facilities, Steam
Sterilization Units, Steam Generating Units,
Food Incubation cum Development Centers
etc.
(iv) The extent of land required for establishing

the CPC is around 50-100 acres, though the
actual requirement of land would depend
i.
upon the business plan, which may vary from
region to region. The land required for setting
up of PPCs and CCs at various locations
would be in addition to land required for
setting up the CPC.
(v) It is expected that on an average, each project
will have around 30-35 food processing units
with a collective investment of Rs.250 crore
that would eventually lead to an annual
turnover of about Rs.450-500 crore and
creation of direct and indirect employment to
the extent of about 30,000 persons.

The Cabinet approved the Scheme of Mega
Food Parks in September, 2008 with the
stipulation to take up 10 projects in the 1st
phase out of total 30 Mega Food Parks (MFP)
envisaged under the Infrastructure
Development Scheme in the country during
th
11 Plan period (2007-2012). Out of these 10
projects, 'Final Approval' was accorded to 9
projects in the States of Andhra Pradesh,
Assam, Jharkhand, Karnataka, Maharashtra,
Punjab, Tamil Nadu, Uttarakhand and West
Bengal. 'Final Approval' for the project in
Uttar Pradesh was not accorded due to failure

9.4. THE INDIAN INSTITUTE OF FOOD
PROCESSING TECHNOLOGY (IIFPT):
INTRODUCTION:
The Indian Institute of Food Processing
Technology (Formerly Indian Institute of Food
Processing Technology) is a pioneer Research and
Development Institute under the Ministry of Food
Processing Industries, Government of India. Dr. V.
Subrahmanian, an eminent scientist and founder
Director, Central Food Technological Research
Institute, Mysore, after his retirement, started PPRC
in 1967 as R&D laboratory in the Modern Rice Mill
complex of Thanjavur Co-operative Marketing
Federation (TCMF) at Tiruvarur, Tamil Nadu. The
mandate of the Institute at its inception was to seek
solutions for preserving high moisture paddy
because the paddy harvest season in Southern India
coincided with the tail end of the South West
monsoon. The Institute was later upgraded as a
national laboratory with the name Paddy Processing
Research Centre (PPRC) in 1972. At the time of up-
gradation the mandates of the Institute were also
changed and the scientists in the Institute focused
their research in identifying technologies for post-
harvest procession and preservation of paddy. The
Institute was moved to its current location at
Thanjavur in 1984.
Considering the vital importance of
strengthening R&D efforts in the post-harvest
processing, preservation and value addition of raw
agricultural produce, the Ministry of Food
Processing Industries (MoFPI) strengthened and
upgraded the PPRC as a National Institute in
106
February 2008 and renamed as Indian Institute of
Food Processing Technology (IIFPT). The Hon'ble
Union Minister of Food Processing Industries has
rechristened IICPT as Indian Institute of Food
Processing Technology (IIFPT) on 31st March,
2017. In its upgraded form, IIFPT will focus on
providing solutions to all food processing areas
including fish, meat and dairy products processing
through intensive research and development
activities. The Institute is located at Thanjavur, the
ancient capital of Chola Kingdom and the granary of
Tamil Nadu.
The IIFPT with its modern laboratories
equipped with hi-tech instruments, is engaged in the
R&D of food grain processing, value addition, by-
product utilization through bio-processing, process
and product development. Food Quality Testing
Laboratory in IIFPT is NABL accredited and FSSAI
referral. Hi-tech and cottage level food processing
incubation-cum-training center in IIFPT offers.
Hands-on-training on different food processing
technologies, renting facilities and other support
services thought the year to help the entrepreneurs to
put in their innovative ideas for the development of
new products. IIFPT offers B.Tech., M.Tech. and
Ph.D. programmes in Food Process Engineering and
M.Tech. programmes in Food Science and
Technology and Ph.D. in Biotechnology.
(A) RESEARCH FOCUS:
Several internally and externally funded
research projects are being taken up by the scientists
of IIFPT. The externally funded research projects
include industry sponsored projects to solve
problems faced by food industries. Some of the
major outcome of research in the Institute relate to
development of non-dairy millet ice cream, coconut
ice cream, functional ragi cookies, onion grader,
onion peeling machine and several value added food
products. Apart from these research projects, IIFPT
is also working on the common interest of the public
to solve the issues of farming community.
The onion mission project undertaken by the
Institute focused on the end-to-end approach
covering post-harvest management, processing and
marketing to assure appropriate returns to growers /
producers, and promote Research and Development
(R&D) of technologies for onion farmers. IIFPT
developed the entire processing line completely
automated for small onion processing which
includes onion root and stem cutting machine, onion
grader, peeling machine, and curing-cum-storage
structure. A common processing facility was also
established at Perambalur district and the entire set
up was inaugurated by Hon'ble Minister of Food
Processing Industries Smt. Harsimrat Kaur Badal on
st
31 August, 2017 and handed over to the farmer
producer organization. IIFPT also initiated coconut
mission programme on 2nd September, 2017 at
Peravurani District of Pattukkottai with the aim of
developing complete end-to-end solutions for
coconut from harvesting to value addition to enhance
the farmer's income.
(B) FOOD PROCESSING BUSINESS

services, IIFPT has conducted 3 workshops, 6
national seminars, 1 food business management
program and co-organized / participated in 9 expos
during 2016. IIFPT has conducted its second “Open
day” on 16.09.2017 and the institute was opened to
public. This event focused on the theme “Food
Processing: New way of Make in India” and was also
intended to sensitize the public on food safety and
hygiene. New food products suitable for the niche
market like millet and coconut based ice creams,
millet and pulse based energy bar and mahua based
confectionery products were launched on the
occasion. Entrepreneurs trained at the institute's
incubation center, food processing units, enterprises,
service providers, traders and farmer producers had
put up stalls on the campus that sought to throw more
light on the emerging scope in the food processing
participants, mainly from Thanjavur and nearby
districts. CHAPTER - 10

SETTING UP / MODERNIZATION OF ABATTOIRS
10.1. The requirement of domestic meat market is
met by abattoirs owned / licensed by municipal
bodies. These municipal abattoirs generally lack
modern equipment, proper sanitation facilities for
scientific slaughtering, waste management and
pollution control. Quality and hygiene levels of these
abattoirs are low leading to contamination of meat
and meat product, wastage of meat, pollution of
adjoining areas, water bodies and rivers.
Modernization of these abattoirs is needed for
production of clean, wholesome and hygienic meat
required for domestic consumption and also for
discouraging slaughtering animals in unauthorised
locations.
10.2. Slaughter houses supplying meat to the
domestic consumers are expected to have basic
minimum provisions for proper lairage facilities,
proper flooring, carcass hanging / flaying facility,
adequate water supply, lighting and waste disposal
system. As most of the abattoirs are owned /
operated or licensed by the local bodies, it is
expected that states play a major role in modernizing
these abattoirs with Government of India assisting
the States in fulfilling this objective. Scheme for
establishing new abattoirs and modernizing of
th
existing abattoirs was started in the 11 Five Year
Plan (2007-12) to fulfil the following objectives:
10.3. OBJECTIVES OF THE SCHEME:
(i) Scientific and hygienic slaughtering of the
animals;
(ii) Application of modern technology for
slaughter waste management and pollution
control;
(iii) More humane treatment of animals /
minimizing transportation of animals;
(iv) Better by-product utilization / value addition;
(v) Providing chilling facility to prevent
microbial activity in slaughtered animals;
(vi) Better hygiene, safety and retail cold chain
management;
(vii) Better forward linkage facility for finished
meat and meat products.
10.4. S A L I E N T F E AT U R E S O F T H E
SCHEME:
(i) The scheme is implemented with
involvement of local bodies (Municipal
Corporations and Panchayats) / Public Sector
Undertaking / Co-operatives / Boards under
Government.
(ii) In-built flexibility in the scheme for
facilitating involvement of private investors
on public - private partnership basis.
(iii) Land for abattoirs is contributed by the
