Agricultural exports and trade policy responses: Leveraging new opportunities and addressing persisting challenges - Economic & Political Weekly - 59(46), Nov 16, 2024: p.42-49

The global economy has been witnessing a continued rise in agricultural trade over the last two decades. There is a distinct shift towards demand for high-value processed agricultural products for consumption, with India’s processed food imports rising more than 20 times between 2003 and 2023. The rise of intra-industry trade in processed agricultural products has been a central factor driving agricultural trade among countries of the global South, and particularly in India. Continued efforts are required for enhancing the share of processed food in the Indian export basket. – Reproduced
