India is a growing market with a population of 1.05 billion: 72% live in rural areas out of which 42% are employed in agriculture.

In recent years GDP growth averaged 5.9 percent per annum. Agriculture sector contributes over 20% to the GDP. Poultry industry is the most flourishing industry with highest growth rate (15% in Broiler and 8% in layer sector). Being worlds 3rd in egg production and 6th in chicken meat production rapid integration is going on to capture the whole Indian diaspora. Indian Dairy Sector has brought in a "White Revolution" and mounted India in the top-most position in total milk production. Last year's (2006) milk production was 97.1 million tones. Annual growth rate of Indian Dairy sector is 5%. India Ranks number 2 in Aqua Culture and number 3 in captive fisheries in Asia. There is tremendous growth in captive fishery production and it has increased from 600-800 kg/ha/yr in 1960 to more than 2000 kg./ha/yr in 2002.

Sheep and Goat meat contributes 0.72 million MT. to the total meat production i.e. 4.26 million MT. Since India has largest livestock population with 50 % of buffalo population and 18 % of cattle in the world, there's a heavy need of milk processing industry. Due to inadequate processing India wastes roughly $ 13 billion worth of farm products including dairy items annually. There are 171 meat Processing Units producing 4.5 million tones of meat annually. Immense scope is there to form industrial zones like SEZs with many chilling plants, boilers, milk powder machines, packaging machines.

Canine industry is growing drastically in urban areas. Dog breeders are doing roaring business by sale of pups at premium price.

Equine industry has its own importance in race course, polo, circus etc. Ponies and mules are used as pack animals in hilly areas.
