New Aqua Business Platform at ILDEX India 2011

India, the world's second largest developing country, is experiencing rapid growth in its poultry and aquaculture sector. Its poultry sector growth is being driven by rising incomes and a rapidly expanding middle class, together with the emergence of vertically integrated poultry producers that have reduced consumer prices by lowering production and marketing costs. For aquaculture industry, India's aquaculture production has been increasing in the last decade. Although the major part of export of cultured products is shrimps, the contribution of carp, such as rohu, has been increasing over the years.
