Market CAGR for India rice milling is being driven by the rising emphasis on rice processing in order to increase the shelf life of rice. The milling process offers more advantages for rice processing plants. The rising incentive of the market is owing to the rising investment in technology upgradation and modernization of rice mills in India and government-supportive schemes and policies. In India, rice processing is the largest agricultural product in the industry of agricultural processing.
The government of India is promoting rice production through a combination of the support prices, assured procurement, and subsidies on the main inputs like chemical fertilizers, irrigation, and electricity; the main proportion of input subsidies is consumed by rice. The competitiveness in the market of rice benefits from its low price of paddy rice production and supportive government policies. The rice farmers in India are primarily supported by those who profit from financial aid in purchasing fertilizer, seed, and fuel and are guaranteed a minimum support price (MSP) for their rice calculated to provide them an adequate rate of return. The government has maximized its technology and investment in modern rice processing. India solely deals with 85 million tons of paddy fields every year and supplies the food and other valuable products required for the population. The rising production of rice has increased the demand for high-quality rice processing equipment is surging.
The husk, germ, and husk layers are removed to different degrees during milling, which aims to get rid of colored bran and germs as well. The milled rice remains fresh for a longer period of time than un-milled combinations when stored in suitable conditions. Therefore, Indian rice milling machinery is important in maximizing the shelf life and minimizing the spoilage loss of rice. Rice milling also releases nutrients like minerals, vitamins, and fiber. Carbohydrates, energy, sugar, protein, calcium, fatty acids, iron, and sodium are some of the nutrient proximate are also lower in milled rice when compared to un-milled rice. The technological advancements and modernization of rice mills will assist in minimizing the time of downstream processing and hence fulfills the demand for rice for consumption and also exports. The growing demand for high-quality rice and the rising adoption of novel cultivation techniques and high-yielding varieties provides a significant opportunity for market players in the rice milling machinery market. These key players can provide modern machines that can enhance the efficiency of the rice milling process, minimize labor costs and raise the quality of the final products. Thus, driving the India Rice Milling market revenue.
The India Rice Milling market segmentation, based on type, includes Rice Whitening Machinery, Paddy Separator Machinery, Pre Cleaner Machinery, Length Grader Machinery, and Others. The rice whitening machinery segment dominated the market, accounting for the largest market revenue in 2021 due to the increased demand for premium quality rice. Further, the paddy separator machinery was the rapid growing segment in the forecast period as the process of paddy separation is difficult, and thus the utilization of paddy separators will make this process easier for the farmers.
The India Rice Milling market segmentation, based on capacity, includes 1 to 10 Ton, 10 to 20 Ton, and More Than 20 Ton. The 1 to 10 tons segment of the capacity dominated the market owing to the presence of various small-scale companies in the country. Further, the more than 20 tons segment witnessed the rapid growth throughout the forecast period owing to the increasing population and rising demand for rice in India.
