The forecast for cattle production (calf crop) in India shows a steady upward trend from 2024 to 2028, increasing annually from 70.78 million heads to 73.04 million heads. As of 2023, the actual figure was lower, making these future figures indicative of growth. Year-on-year percentage changes indicate a consistent annual increase, which cumulatively contributes to a favorable compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the next five years. This reflects a stable expansion in India's cattle industry.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of climate change on agricultural practices, shifts in domestic demand for cattle products, and government policy changes on livestock management. Keeping an eye on technological advancements in cattle breeding and healthcare will also be essential for sustaining growth.
