Swot analysis Strengths India is one of the largest food producers in the world. Diverse agro-climatic conditions Large and diverse raw material base suitable for food processing companies Huge scientific and research talent pool Well developed infrastructure and distribution network Strategic geographic location

Weaknesses High requirement of working capital Lack of grading standards Low technology level Highly bureaucratic investment process, government inefficiency, and corruption have also discouraged foreign investors.

Opportunities Threats FDI and other routes of investments by MNCs pose a potential threat to a large number of Indian players. Loss of trained manpower to other industries due to better working conditions Rapid developments in contemporary and requirements of the industry may lead to fast obsolescence. Large crop and material base in the country due to agro-ecological variability offers vast potential for agro processing activities. Agriculture offers enormous opportunities along its value chain. Globalization may lead to technological advancement. Rising disposable income levels (50 % of household expenditure is on food items)
