India has the potential to boost organic product exports to Rs 20,000 crore within the next three years, Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal stated on Thursday. Speaking at an event organized in partnership with the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI), Goyal emphasized the growing global demand for organic products and India’s unique position to capitalize on it.

“Currently, our organic product exports stand at Rs 5,000–6,000 crore. Achieving Rs 20,000 crore within three years is a realistic target, representing a 3-3.5 times growth. The global market for organic products, estimated at Rs 1 lakh crore, is poised to expand up to Rs 10 lakh crore in the coming years. India must seize this opportunity,” he said.

The minister made these remarks while releasing the eighth edition of the National Programme for Organic Production (NPOP), which introduces updated regulations to enhance transparency, align with global standards, and simplify processes for stakeholders.

Key Highlights of the Eighth Edition of NPOP

The revised NPOP framework, updated for the first time since 2014, includes farmer-friendly regulations, streamlined certification processes, enhanced transparency, and a revamped traceability system. These updates aim to strengthen India’s organic product sector and boost exports, targeting $2 billion in organic food exports by 2030.

A significant development unveiled at the event was TraceNet 2.0, an upgraded traceability platform to ensure seamless operations and regulatory oversight. A dedicated NPOP portal, a redesigned APEDA portal, and an updated agri exchange portal were also launched, improving visibility and operational ease for organic stakeholders.

Organic Farming in India

India is home to one of the largest populations of organic farmers globally, with the NPOP playing a critical role in ensuring that agricultural products meet stringent organic standards. Managed by the Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (APEDA) under the Commerce Ministry, NPOP enhances the credibility of Indian organic products in both domestic and international markets.

Ministers of State for Cooperation Krishan Pal Gurjar and Murlidhar Mohol, Minister of State for Commerce Jitin Prasada, and Cooperation Secretary Ashish Kumar Bhutani also attended the event, underscoring the government’s commitment to fostering sustainable agricultural practices and promoting organic farming.

With the global demand for organic products on the rise, the updated NPOP regulations and streamlined processes are expected to position India as a key player in the organic export market, providing a significant boost to farmers and contributing to the country’s agricultural and economic growth.
