The Growing Awareness Regarding the Health Benefits of Organic Food Products is Propelling the Market Growth

The increasing health awareness among Indian consumers is a significant driver for the organic food market. Consumers are now paying more attention to the nutrient content and quality of their food, resulting in a greater demand for organic products. They are also increasingly focusing on the potential health risks associated with the use of chemicals and pesticides in conventional food production, which, in turn, is augmenting the adoption of organic food variants. Additionally, the growing disposable income levels have resulted in increased consumer spending on health and wellness products. Furthermore, the sudden outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has also played a major role in driving the growth of the organic food market. The pandemic has highlighted the importance of maintaining a healthy immune system, due to which a majority of the consumers are preferring organic food products as a way to boost their health and immunity. The rapid outbreak has also led to an enhanced focus on locally sourced and sustainably produced food, which has further boosted the demand for organic food products.

Competitive analysis such as market structure, market share by key players, player positioning, top winning strategies, competitive dashboard, and company evaluation quadrant has been covered in the report. Also, detailed profiles of all major companies have been provided. The market structure is fragmented with numerous regional players in the market. The volume of new entrants is moderate in the organic food industry due to the fragmented nature of the market, and high regulatory requirements and capital investments.

What is Organic food?

Organic food refers to the food that is produced using organic farming practices, which involve growing crops and raising livestock without the use of synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), antibiotics, and growth hormones. It is considered to be healthier and more nutritious than conventionally grown food as it consists of no harmful chemicals or synthetic additives. Organic food is not only beneficial for consumers but also for farmers and the economy since it is obtained by sustainable and eco-friendly farming practices which reduces the carbon footprint of food production and promotes biodiversity. In addition to this, organic food production results in improved soil health and long-term sustainability, as well as providing farmers with a more stable and predictable income. Some of the advantages of organic food include better taste, higher nutrient content, and reduced exposure to pesticides and other harmful chemicals. Moreover, the organic food market has been growing rapidly in recent years, thereby offering significant economic opportunities for farmers and other stakeholders.

COVID-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak resulted in unprecedented challenges in the industry due to the imposing of nationwide lockdown in India. This caused several challenges to the organic food supply chain, including logistical issues, depleted stocks and manpower shortages. These factors negatively impacted farmers' livelihoods due to the reduced demand for organic products as a result of the lockdowns and travel restrictions. Furthermore, the lockdowns also affected the export of organic food, causing a decline in the overall market. Despite these challenges, there has been a noticeable increase in consumer awareness regarding the health benefits of organic and sustainable foods, which has driven the demand for organic products during and after the pandemic, with an enhanced focus on immunity boosters and the correlation between nutrition and health. Additionally, the government's subsidies to the agricultural sector present a significant opportunity for the Indian domestic and export market, resulting in significant boost in the demand and increased sales across organic food companies.

India Organic Food Market Trends:

The organic food market in India is majorly driven by the higher uptake of organic food among the masses, especially in the urban regions. This can be attributed to the growing consciousness regarding the health hazards associated with chemical pesticides and fertilizers. The demand for organic food in India is also being catalyzed by the strong support of the government by the implementation of various government schemes, subsidies and incentives supporting farmers who are adopting organic farming practices. Moreover, increasing investments by Indian corporate firms in agritech, agribusinesses and organic farming resulting in the entry of several players in the market is also fueling the market.. Some of the other factors contributing to the market include rapid urbanization, growing usage of bio-based fertilizers, the emerging trend of farm mechanization, inflating disposable income levels, rising popularity of natural and clean label foods, and extensive research and development (R&D) activities.
