MOSL AGRI & TEXTILE CONFERENCE: Opportunities immense despite prevailing challenges

 

• The agri and textile sectors remain vital part of India's economy, both in terms of overall value-added output and employment. Solid support on the part of the government and emerging opportunities, both in domestic and export markets alike, point to a sanguine outlook for the industry. However, these sectors still face a range of challenges, including those related to tax reform, environment, labor, and presence of a vast unorganized economy, among others. The Indian government, though, has set out a series of focused programs in an attempt to address these issues.
• Against this industry backdrop, we organized the 'Agri & Textile Day' Conference with an aim to capture the entire value chain of the agri and textile sectors. Notably, we were able to bring together a range of corporates (8 textile companies and 4 chemical companies) and experts (2 farmers, 2 agrochemical dealers, a renowned chemical expert from a reputed chemical engineering college, a seeds & agri expert, a cotton expert and a retail dealer) to share their knowledge, expertise and insight into the prevalent issues and opportunities.
• In this report, we will offer our key takeaways from around 450 investor meetings with key stakeholders in the industry. We will also discuss the current developments and what they will mean for the Indian agri and textile industries.
