Scale Context
Cargill Alone Outproduces All of India
India's entire compound feed market (35M MT/year) is smaller than New Hope Group's single-country China output (~60M MT). Cargill Animal Nutrition alone produces 70M MT — 2× India's total. This gap represents both the current opportunity and the competitive pressure: as India's protein consumption grows, so does the appetite of global feed giants to capture that volume.

About This Ranking

India's feed sector — 35M MT/year — ranks 8th globally but is growing at 8–10% CAGR as protein consumption rises. This ranking covers the top global producers by volume and India's top manufacturers by revenue, with data from official annual reports and exchange filings.
