The East and Northeast India is anticipated to experience the highest Growth of CAGR 9.0% in the India Cassava Starch Market between 2024 and 2030. This growth is fueled by several factors including increasing industrial applications of cassava starch, rising demand for bio-based products, and strategic government initiatives aimed at promoting agricultural processing industries in these regions. The availability of raw materials, coupled with advancements in processing technologies, is also contributing to the market expansion. Additionally, shifting consumer preferences towards natural and sustainable ingredients further bolster the demand for cassava starch across various industries such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and paper manufacturing. The favorable geographical conditions in the East and Northeast regions, conducive for cassava cultivation, further support this growth trajectory, making these areas pivotal in shaping the future landscape of the cassava starch market in India.

∙ Animal Feed and Agriculture Segment to Register Highest Growth

By application type, animal feed and agriculture segment is analyzed to grow with the highest CAGR of 8.9% during the forecast period 2024-2030. Cassava starch serves as a versatile ingredient in animal feed formulations, offering benefits such as improved digestibility and cost-effectiveness. Moreover, its application in agriculture as a binding agent in various formulations further enhances its market potential. The agricultural sector in India is adopting cassava starch for its utility in crop protection products, where it aids in enhancing the effectiveness of pesticides and herbicides. This dual role of cassava starch in both animal feed and agriculture underscores its growing importance in the Indian market. As industries seek sustainable and economically viable solutions, cassava starch emerges as a preferred choice due to its renewable sourcing and functional properties, promising continued growth and innovation in these key segments.

∙ Food & Beverage is Leading the Market

Food & Beverage segment held a major market share in 2023 and is analyzed to continue its dominance over the market growing at CAGR 7.7% during the forecast period 2024-2030. The application of cassava starch in the Indian market, particularly in the food and beverage sector, has seen significant growth driven by several factors. In recent years, there has been a notable increase in the demand for cassava starch due to its versatility and functional properties in food processing. Cassava starch is widely utilized as a thickening agent, stabilizer, and texture enhancer in various food products such as sauces, soups, bakery items, and snacks. Its neutral taste, excellent clarity, and binding characteristics make it a preferred choice among food manufacturers looking to improve product quality while maintaining cost efficiency. Additionally, the clean label trend in the food industry has further boosted the adoption of cassava starch as it is perceived as a natural ingredient. Beyond food, cassava starch finds applications in beverages where it serves as a substitute for other starches or thickeners, contributing to improved product consistency and mouthfeel. The expanding food and beverage industry in India, coupled with increasing consumer awareness towards clean label products, continues to drive the demand for cassava starch.

∙ Fluctuations In Raw Material Prices as A Major Challenge

Fluctuations in raw material prices represent a significant challenge in the Indian cassava starch market, impacting both production costs and profitability. The market heavily relies on cassava as a primary raw material, which is sensitive to price variations influenced by factors such as weather conditions, global demand shifts, and geopolitical developments affecting supply chains. These fluctuations directly affect the operational dynamics of starch manufacturers, leading to uncertainty in cost projections and pricing strategies. Managing these price swings requires robust risk management frameworks and strategic partnerships with suppliers to stabilize input costs.

The adoption of advanced processing technologies presents a compelling growth opportunity for cassava starch market in India. Traditionally an industrial crop, cassava has gained traction due to its versatility in various sectors including food, pharmaceuticals, and textiles. The integration of advanced processing methods enhances production efficiency, reduces operational costs, and improves product quality, thereby meeting the increasing demand from diverse industries. Technologies such as automated processing systems, improved extraction techniques, and sustainable practices not only streamline manufacturing processes but also align with global sustainability goals. Moreover, these advancements bolster India's position in the global market by ensuring consistency in supply and meeting stringent quality standards. In May 2024, The ICAR-Central Tuber Crops Research Institute (CTCRI) in Thiruvananthapuram has embarked on a ₹4 crore research project for developing new tapioca varieties with waxy or high-amylose starches that are useful in industry with the help of CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing technology

The increasing global awareness and regulatory focus on environmental sustainability have positioned biodegradable products as a burgeoning segment within India's cassava starch market. Cassava, a versatile crop abundant in India, serves as a crucial raw material for manufacturing biodegradable alternatives to traditional plastics and packaging materials. This shift towards biodegradability is driven by escalating consumer preferences for eco-friendly solutions, supported by stringent environmental policies favoring sustainable practices. As businesses strive to meet these evolving consumer demands, opportunities emerge for innovation and market expansion within the cassava starch sector. The development and adoption of biodegradable products not only cater to environmental concerns but also present a strategic growth avenue for stakeholders in the Indian market, fostering economic resilience and reinforcing India's role in the global bioplastics landscape.
