India ranks third in production of eggs and eight in meat production in the world, said The Economic Survey 2021-22 . Egg production in the country has increased from 78.48 billion in 2014-15 to 122.11 billion in 2020-21 (Provisional) taking the per capita availability of eggs to 91 eggs per annum in 2020-21 (Provisional).
Meat production in the country has increased from 6.69 million tonnes in 2014-15 to 8.80 million tonnes in 2020-21 (Provisional), the survey said.

The Survey suggested an increased focus on harnessing the potential of the allied activities as the share of animal husbandry, dairying, fisheries and wages in the income of the farmers has increased more than the share of income from crop cultivation. This is expected to give a boost to egg and meat production.
According to the Survey, anecdotal evidence suggests that prior to the launch of GeM, government procurement prices were much higher than the prices prevailing in the market and there were constant complaints about inefficiency and rent seeking.

"The use of this e-marketplace has resulted in a substantial reduction in prices in comparison to the rates used earlier, with average prices falling by at least 15-20 per cent, up to 56 per cent," it said.
