India has the highest number of organic farmers globally but still struggling.

POTENTIALS, STILL NO RESULTS WHY?

India is home to 30 percent of the total organic producers in the world but accounts for just 2.59 percent (1.5 million hectares) of the total organic cultivation area of 57.8 million hectares, according to the World of Organic Agriculture 2018 report.

At the same time, most organic farmers are struggling due to poor policy measures, rising input costs, and limited market, says a study by the Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India (ASSOCHAM) and global consultancy firm Ernst & Young.

EXPENSIVE, WHY?

Even after the product reaches the markets, consumers find them expensive and discouraging. Rs 1,200–1,500 per month is the additional expenditure if a consumer switches to organic food, says ASSOCHAM study.

Farmers say that their organic products are usually more expensive due to higher labor costs and comparatively lower yields. According to the ASSOCHAM report, post-harvest handling of relatively small quantities of organic foods also results in higher costs because of the mandatory segregation of organic and conventional produce, especially for processing and transportation. “Specialised farmer training costs, processing, and inventory holding costs (without chemical additives), and increased packaging, logistics, and distribution costs (due to low volumes), contribute to the high price of organic food products,” says the report.
