Review of Operations

 

The year saw the core businesses of Animal Feeds and Agricultural Inputs returning an extremely good performance, both in revenue and profitability. This represents the fulfillment of the strategy kicked off in FY2008 to refocus Godrej Agrovet on its core competency of selling highquality, yield-improving inputs to Indian farmers. Since then we have divested, partially or fully, their non-core businesses in areas such as rural retail (Aadhaar), poultry integration/processing (Godrej Tyson Foods), and gourmet food retail (Nature’s Basket). Going forward, we remain steadfastly committed to improving the productivity of Indian farmers by innovating products and services that sustainably increase crop and livestock yields.

 

The business-wise performance is reviewed hereunder:

 

ANIMAL FEEDS:

 

The Animal Feed business recorded a good growth of 16% in revenue and 31% in profitability. Despite almost-flat sales volumes, profitability grew due to expansion of contribution margins and control over fixed overheads.

 

Cattle Feed volumes rose modestly year-on-year, arresting the persistent trend of falling sales volumes in that category. We attribute this success to their decision to divide the Animal Feed sales force into separate teams for Cattle, Poultry and Aqua, which came into effect in September 2009.

 

Poultry Feed had a more difficult year, suffering de-growth in some regions. This was mostly due to market conditions, where industry growth stalled from lower placement of chicks. The situation is expected to be corrected in the coming year, and with more beaks to feed, sales volumes are projected to rise again.

 

Expansion of contribution margins was possible due to efficient sourcing, improved formulation, and successful R&D efforts. The Central Buying Organization (CBO) was successful in forecasting the soya meal market, as well as in their positions in imported amino acids and fish meal. Aggressive efforts to stock raw materials for Cattle Feed also paid off. The Animal Nutrition Innovation Center (ANIC) also supported margin expansion through breakthroughs in feed formulation, performance, and quality. Additionally, ANIC made substantial progress in advancing their pipeline of innovative cattle nutrition products towards commercialization. Over time, it is expected that ANIC will help transform Godrej Agrovet into the most innovative feed company in South Asia.

 

AGRICULTURAL INPUTS:

 

The Agricultural Inputs business grew by 19% in revenue and 22% in profitability. This success is even more impressive in light of the failed monsoon, and the drought conditions which followed. Sales growth was fueled by innovative products from in-house R and D (HBR, Hitweed and Zymegold) in addition to growth in more commoditized pesticides and OMM.

 

Contribution margins remained relatively steady at the product level. Working capital requirements for the business increased due to rising trade receivables and the interest cost on the same impacted profitability. Going forward, greater efforts will be made to grow the business aggressively while keeping working capital requirements in check.

 

Agricultural Inputs R&D continued their focus on the development of innovative agrochemicals this year. Key projects include the development of crop-specific selective herbicides, synthesis of intermediates, and innovation of a next generation PGR for cereals.

 

FINANCE AND INFORMATION SYSTEMS:

 

The Company managed treasury operations very efficiently. Excellent treasury management resulted in the Company procuring funds at a significantly lower pricing. The Company continues to enjoy the apex rating of A1+ from ICRA for its Commercial Paper Programme of Rs.150.000 millions and for its short-term borrowing program of Rs.2300.000 millions. The Company also continues to enjoy the rating LA+ for its long-term borrowing program of Rs.270.000 millions. The Company, successfully implemented SAP, a world renowned, ERP solution in the Animal Feed business of the Company. The Company is also in the process of implementing SAP in the rest of the businesses and the corporate office. Implementation of SAP in the Company has already started to yield significant business benefits.

COMPANY PROFILE:        

             
Subject was formerly a division of Godrej Soaps Limited. It was set up as a separate company with focus on the agri-sector. Over the years, the company has developed and nurtured a close relationship with farmers. Providing them with innovative Products, as well as educating them on world-class farming practices.

 

Together with its subsidiaries Goldmohur Foods and Feeds Limited and Golden Feed Products Limited , Subject has revenues close to Rs 10000 millions (US $ 250 million - FY 2007). The activities of the company are vast : Compound Animal feeds, Agricultural Inputs, Integrated Poultry Business, Oil Palm Plantations, Plant Biotech, Retailing of Fresh Farm Produce in urban areas, and rural retailing of a wide range of products including Agricultural inputs.

 

Subject acquired Goldmohur Foods and Feeds Limited from Hindustan Lever, a Unilever subsidiary in India, in 2001.Goldmohur Foods and Feeds Limited enjoys strong brand equity due to its poultry and cattle feed brands. Goldmohur Foods and Feeds Limited has a state-of-the-art R and D centre in Bangalore named 'ANIC' (Animal Nutrition Innovation Centre). This centre is devoted to development of innovative animal feed products. Today, Subject together with its subsidiaries has manufacturing facilities spread over 40 strategic locations and a network of over 10,000 distributors, dealers and C and F agents. In its journey of growth, Subject has set new standards of corporate performance, reliably delivering quality products and services to all its customers at competitive prices.

 

STRATEGIC TIE-UPS

 

Strategic tie-ups and acquisitions have been a way of life at Subject. Meaningful alliances and useful acquisitions have been providing impetus to its growth. The acquisition of business have been in different segments ranging from Goldmohur Foods and Feeds (Animal Feed), to India Poultry Farm (Poultry), Krithika (Oil Palm Plantations), and Higashimaru (Marketing of Shrimp Feed).

GLOBAL FORAYS

A joint venture with ACI Group of Bangladesh for poultry and feed operations in Bangladesh, and acquisition of controlling stake in Al-Rahaba, which runs broiler farms in UAE exemplify this confidence.

 

ANIMAL FEED DIVISION

          
Subject has a rich experience of over 3 decades in the business of Animal Feeds. Starting from humble beginnings of a single feed mill in Mumbai, it has grown into the largest producer of commercial Animal Feed in India, with a strong presence in Dairy Feed, Aqua Feed and Poultry Feed sectors. Its production facilities are spread over 40 locations across the country. Despite the vast geographical and cultural diversity of India, Subject has managed to develop quality feeds appreciated by farmers across the country. This can only be attributed to its strong grass root level understanding of India.

A great example of this philosophy in action is Manthan - a highly creative and effective demand creation model that guides and provides customized solutions to help cattle farmers increase milk output and also market the end produce. Such successful initiatives have not only benefited the farmers, but have also made Subject the leader in this business.
