India's Meat Sector Booms, Increasing Share in Agriculture Output

The meat industry in India is growing.

Its contribution to the country's agricultural output has increased.

The total value of the livestock sector has gone up significantly.

Meat now makes up a larger part of the livestock sector compared to milk.

India is also exporting more meat, with exports of buffalo meat being the majority.

While crops are still a large part of agriculture, their share has decreased as livestock's share has grown.

Improved techniques and investment are helping this sector grow.
