MESSAGE

The Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare is implementing various flace ship

schemes for increasing production and productivity of field crops in the country through

improved production technologies. India is self sufficient in food grains, sugarcane and fiber

crops but deficit in pulses and oilseeds. The country has achieved oilseeds production of

31.28 million tonnes during 2016-17, which may helped in reducing the huge gap between

the demand and availability of edible oils. The country is spending about Rs.73,000 crore for

import of edible oils to meet the domestic demand, but also earns about Rs. 29,000 crores

foreign exchange through export of oilseed commodities.

National Mission on Oilseeds and Oil Palm (NMOOP) implemented since 2014-15

has played a vital role in driving the production and productivity enhancement of oilseeds and

area expansion of oil palm & Tree Borne Oilseeds (TBOs) in the country. The higher

production of oilseeds could be achieved as a result of sustained and determined efforts of all

stakeholders particularly the farming community. During recent year the area under oilseeds

crops have been reduced by around 1.5 million ha but with enhance productivity, the

production of oilseeds maintained at 30.63 million tonnes in 2017-18 ( 3rd Advance).

I am happy to note that the Oilseeds Division of DAC&FW has attempted to compile

information on various aspects of oilseeds, oil palm in a comprehensive manner and brought

out in the form of “READY RECKONER”. I hope that the publication would be useful for all

stakeholders including various departments in their day-to-day functioning and facilitate

quick delivery of desired output. I appreciate the efforts made by the Joint Secretary

(Oilseeds) and his team for bringing out this publication.

FOREWORD

The country has achieved an estimated oilseeds production of 31.28 million tonnes

during 2016-17 from the production level of 29.80 million tonnes recorded at the end of

Eleventh plan. This accomplishment could be achieved as a result of sustained and committed

efforts of all stakeholders in making available the latest crop production technologies to the

farmers and providing post harvest marketing support. National Mission on Oilseeds and Oil

Palm (NMOOP) launched in 2014-15 has played a catalystic role in enhancing the production

and productivity of oilseeds and area expansion of oil palm in the country. Concerted efforts

made under this mission to bring additional area under oilseeds cultivation through utilization

of rice fallow areas, intercropping with pulses and other suitable crops have paid dividends.

The involvement of Krishi Vigyan Kendras (KVKs) under ICAR in demonstration of

frontline technologies to the farmers has also contributed significantly to achieve the desired

targets. Recently Govt. has also planned to create seed hubs of oilseeds though

ICAR/KVKs/SAUs.

Making proven technologies accessible to the farmers in relatively less productive and

remote area was the central theme of NMOOP. The mission has delivered several new

technologies and good agricultural practices evolved by NARS to the farmers including

quality seeds of new varieties/hybrids, planting techniques, irrigation devices, soil & nutrient

management, farm machinery & implements and integrated pest management. Timely

availability of quality farm inputs and popularization of efficient farm mechanization

technologies were ensured under the mission for which the farmers’ response has been very

much enthusiastic. Innovative practices by farmers have contributed towards the growth and

resilience of Indian agriculture in the face of adverse climatic conditions.

I am happy that the Oilseeds Division of DAC&FW has made good effort to collate

information regarding various aspects of oilseeds & oil palm including technical information

and brought out in the form of “READY RECKONER”. This publication will help all

stakeholders in their day-to-day functioning and facilitate quick delivery of desired output.

The efforts made by the Joint Secretary (Oilseeds) and his team of officers

responsible for bringing out this publication in the form of a booklet deserve appreciation. I

am sure that the information contained in this booklet would serve as a handy material to the

users for whom it is intended.

1. PRESENT SEANIRO OF OILSEED

CROPS AND VEGETABLE OILS

1.0 Present Status of Oilseed crops and vegetable oils in India

Oilseed crops are the second most important determinant of agricultural economy, next

only to cereals within the segment of field crops. The self-sufficiency in oilseeds attained

through “Yellow Revolution” during early 1990’s, could not be sustained beyond a short period.

Despite being the fifth largest oilseed crop producing country in the world, India is also one of

the largest importers of vegetable oils today. There is a spurt in the vegetable oil consumption in

recent years in respect of both edible as well as industrial usages.

The demand-supply gap in the edible oils has necessitated huge imports accounting for

60 per cent of the country’s requirement (2016-17: import 14.01 million tonnes; cost Rs. 73,048

crore). Despite commendable performance of domestic oilseeds production of the nine annual

crops (Compound Annual Growth Rate of 3.89%), it could not match with the galloping rate of

per capita demand (~6%) due to enhanced per capita consumption (18 kg oil per annum) driven

by increase in population and enhanced per capita income.

1.1 Sources of vegetable oils

Primary sources of vegetable oil: Nine oilseeds are the primary source of vegetable oils

in the country, which are largely grown under rainfed condition over an area of about 26 million

ha. Among these, soybean (34%), groundnut (27%), rapeseed & mustard (27%) contributes to

more than 88% of total oilseeds production and >80% of vegetable oil with major share of

mustard (35%), soybean (23%) and groundnut (25%).

Andhra Pradesh (groundnut) & Gujarat (groundnut), Haryana(Mustard),

Karnataka(G.nut), M.P(Soybean), Maharashtra(Soybean), Rajasthan (Mustard & Soybean),

Tamil Nadu(G. nut), U.P(Mustard), West Bengal(Mustard) contributing more than 95% of total

oilseed production in the country. India is producing about 7-8 million tones of vegetable oils

from primary sources

Secondary sources of vegetable oil: In addition to nine oilseeds, 03 million tonnes of

vegetable oil is being harnessed from secondary sources like cottonseed, rice bran, coconut, Tree

Borne Oilseeds (TBOs) and Oil Palm. Oil palm which is categorized as secondary sources of oils

should be included as primary source as it gives the highest per ha oil yield (4-5t/ha).

1.2 Area, Production and Yield of Oilseed Crops in India

In India, annual oilseeds are cultivated over 26.67 million hectares of area producing

30.06 million tonnes annually (quinquennium ending 2016-17) (Fig 1. and Table 1). Majority of

the oilseeds are cultivated under rainfed ecosystem (70%). The area under oilseeds has

experienced a deceleration in general, and this is due to their relative lower profitability against

competing crops like maize, cotton, chickpea etc., under the prevailing crop growing and

marketing situations.

1.3 Growth rate of oilseed crops:

The growth rates of all annual oilseed crops during past decade (2001-02 to 2011-12) is

poor (negative for area and production) especially for sunflower, safflower, linseed, niger; and

negative for area of groundnut. Soybean and castor crops have registered positive and high

growth rates and rapeseed-mustard registered higher rate of production. The higher productivity

driving the production (and profitability) and area expansion of castor is the best situation for

oilseeds. The annual production of is increasing continuously in the country and showed a

positive growth during the period 2001 to 2013 compared to the decade 1990-2000 especially as

the increased production has come from the increase in area and highest rate of increase for

productivity implying the technology led growth. Increase of area by 1.8 times , production by

4.99 times and yield by 2.86 times over 1966-67( Table 1).

As per trends, vegetable oil production is around 7.0 million tonnes from about 30.0

million tonnes of oilseeds necessitating import to the tune of 10-14 million tonnes, accounting

for about 60 per cent of the total (Table 2).

1.4 Import and export of oilseeds & vegetable oil

Import

India is heavily dependent on imports to meet its edible oil requirements and largest

importer of vegetable oils in the world (15% share) followed by China & USA. Of imported

edible oils , share of palm oil is about 60% followed by soybean oil with a share of 25% and

sunflower (12%). Import growth in respect of edible oils during the last decades is about

174%.The import figure of edible oils during 2015-16 reveals that India imported a total of 15.88

million tonnes of oilseed and vegetable oil products worthing Rs. 69331.96 crore Table 3).

Export

As per foreign trade policy export of edible oils was prohibited over the years. Currently the

following exemptions are in place.

i) Edible oils permitted for export in bulk as well consumer packs of upto 5 kgs with MEP.

a) Groundnut oil , sesame oil, soybean oil, rice bran oil, coconut oil b) Minor forest product oils

ii) Edible oils permitted for export in only consumer packs upto 5 kgs with MEP of UDS 900

per MT:

a) Olive oil, palm oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, cotton seed oil. linseed oil, mustard oil. India was never a big exporter of edible oils. India’s export basket comprised of premium

oils with higher value realization (refined coconut, groundnut and sesame oils) and recently DOC

oil meals, castor oil , groundnut oil and sesame oil contributes largest share . The export figure

of edible oils during 2015-16 reveals that India exported a total of 8.20 million tonnes of oilseed

and vegetable oil products worthing Rs. 29527.97crore (Table 4).

2.0 Vision

Considering the growing domestic demand for edible oils, the staggering deficiency and

the cost to the exchequer on account of imports, the urgency of scaling up the oilseeds

production does not need over-emphasis. It has now been planned to achieve a production of

45.64 million tonnes (mts) from nine (9) annual oilseed crops by 2022-23, expecting an

additional production of about 15.58 mt over and above the 30.06 mt production (QE 2016-17)

(Table 5). Thus, the availability of total vegetable oil from domestic production of nine annual

oilseed crops would be about 13.69 mts by 2022 (at 30 per cent recovery) as against the current

annual output of 7.0 mts.

2.1 Anticipated area, production and yield

The total vegetable oil requirement in the country in 2022 has been estimated to be 33.20

million tonnes assuming per capita consumption of more than 22 kg per person per annum. The

anticipated vegetable oil production from 45.64 million tonnes of oilseeds in the year 2022 is

13.69 million tones. The anticipated area, production and yield of oilseed crops by 2022 is given

in Table 6.

The vegetable oil availability from secondary sources such as coconut, cotton seed, rice

bran, solvent extracted oil (SEO) and tree & forest origin has been estimated at 5.22 million

tonnes by 2022 (Table 7). As a sequel, the anticipated vegetable oil availability (primary +

secondary + oil palm) would be around 17.03 million tonnes indicating the possible reduction in

imports to the tune of about 15 per cent from the present 67 per cent by 2022. This would be an

impressive achievement of reduction in import burden to an extent of about Rs. 15,000 crore vis-

à-vis present status of import.

It is known that excessive consumption of oil is not good for health. Unfortunately, those

with affordable purchasing power and lack of knowledge relating to regulated consumption of

vegetable oils, tend to increase their consumption. It is hence essential and also possible to

reduce the consumption of vegetable oils by creating awareness among the consumers about

optimum & healthy oil consumption habits. As per nutritional requirement, 12-13 kg per person

per annum is sufficient, while an Indian is consuming more than 18 kg per person per annum.

The excess consumption habits can be normalized by educating the consumers through electronic

& print media, mobile apps, advertisements, nutritional camps, general education etc. It is

against this backdrop, that, the strategies for enhancing the productivity and profitability of

oilseed based production system are prepared for the annual oilseeds in the country.

3. STRATEGIES

3.0 Strategies

The strategies for enhancing the productivity (and profitability) of oilseed based

production system are prepared for the annual oilseeds and for oil palm in the country. The

interventions/ strategies proposed in oilseeds are time tested with scale neutrality that can be

grounded for enhancing the productivity of the oilseed based production system with necessary

institutional support/ handholding. The proposed strategies are categorized under three situations

as follows.

1. Increasing seed production and distribution of newly released varieties. 2. Low cost technologies with high impact on productivity resulting in higher income. 3. Technologies with high impact that involve reasonable investment with high return on

investment (ROI), with emphasis on eco-friendliness, high input use efficiency, and

4. Strategies with emphasis on quality improvement and value addition leveraging technologies with a bearing on the employment through skill/ entrepreneurship development.

The newer opportunities to explore non-traditional seasons and regions for crops are also

projected that have proven success for area expansion and integration into major cropping

systems.

3.1 Yield gap analysis

There exists a tremendous potential for enhancing the yield of nine oilseed crops by

adopting the technologies already available. This contention is based on the results of 23,118

frontline demonstrations (FLDs) ( 2010-2015) conducted on nine oilseeds crops under real farm

situations in different agro-ecological conditions of India over a period of five years. The

productivity (yield) gap between improved technology and farmers’ practices ranged from 21 %

in sesame to 149 % in sunflower (Table 8).
