In 2023, India's broiler meat consumption reached 5.26 million metric tons. The forecast for 2024 is 5.4 million metric tons, increasing to 5.95 million metric tons by 2028. Year-on-year growth is projected to range from 2.59% to 2.87%, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 2.95% over the five-year period. This steady growth reflects rising demand driven by increasing population and consumption patterns.
Future trends to watch include changes in dietary preferences, the impact of economic growth on disposable income, and potential disruptions from disease outbreaks or trade policies that may influence domestic production and import-export dynamics.
