The millet domestic consumption in India is projected to increase steadily from 12.33 million metric tons in 2024 to 12.65 million metric tons by 2028. This series demonstrates a consistent upward trend with an average year-on-year growth of approximately 0.6%. This indicates a growing demand for millets in the domestic market. Comparatively, in 2023, consumption was a bit lower, marking a notable shift towards increased millet consumption in the forecast period.
Future trends to watch for:
- Increased health consciousness among consumers driving demand for millets as a nutritious alternative to traditional grains.
- Potential policy interventions and incentives promoting millet production and consumption in India.
- Expansion of millet-based products in the market enhancing accessibility and adoption rates.
