There are many agro-based industries in India. A few examples of agro-based industries in India are related to textiles, sugar, vegetable oils, and paper. These industries use agricultural products as their raw materials.
Textile industry - The textile industry is the largest industry in the organized sector. It contributes to 14% of the Indian economy. The textile industry in India includes cotton textiles, woolen textiles, silk textiles, jute textiles, and synthetic textile industries.
Sugar industry - India is the second largest producer of sugar in the world and it stands in the first place for producing jaggery and Khandsari. They are produced from sugarcane. Almost 460 sugar mills are spread across the country in UP, Bihar, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Gujarat, Karnataka, Punjab, MP, and Haryana. However, the canes produced in Maharashtra are known to have high sucrose content so the industry is shifting to the south and western parts of India. Since it is a seasonal culture, it is placed in the cooperative sector.
