INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

India is developing into an open-market economy, yet traces of its past autarkic policies remain. Economic liberalization, including industrial deregulation, privatization of state-owned enterprises, and reduced controls on foreign trade and investment, began in the early 1990s and has served to accelerate the country's growth, which has averaged more than 7% per year since 1997. India's diverse economy encompasses traditional village farming, modern agriculture, handicrafts, a wide range of modern industries, and a multitude of services. Slightly more than half of the work force is in agriculture, but services are the major source of economic growth, accounting for more than half of India's output, with only one-third of its labor force. India has capitalized on its large educated English-speaking population to become a major exporter of information technology services and software workers. In 2010, the Indian economy rebounded robustly from the global financial crisis - in large part because of strong domestic demand - and growth exceeded 8% year-on-year in real terms. However, India's economic growth in 2011 slowed because of persistently high inflation and interest rates and little progress on economic reforms. High international crude prices have exacerbated the government's fuel subsidy expenditures contributing to a higher fiscal deficit, and a worsening current account deficit. Little economic reform took place in 2011 largely due to corruption scandals that have slowed legislative work. India's medium-term growth outlook is positive due to a young population and corresponding low dependency ratio, healthy savings and investment rates, and increasing integration into the global economy. India has many long-term challenges that it has not yet fully addressed, including widespread poverty, inadequate physical and social infrastructure, limited non-agricultural employment opportunities, scarce access to quality basic and higher education, and accommodating rural-to-urban migration.

HIGHLIGHTS FOR 2011-12

 

ANALYSIS OF PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNT

 

·         Revenues from operations increased 13.63% from Rs. 29110.900 Millions in 2010-11 to Rs. 33080.000 Millions in 2011-12, owing to increased offtake, better realisations and new products. Other income decreased 1.37%, from Rs. 1535.900 Millions in 2010-11 to Rs. 1514.900 Millions in 2011-12, the reason for the same being a fall in interest income and low profit on sale of investments compared with the previous year.

 

·         There was an increase of 16.29% in operating expenses, increasing from Rs. 24461.300 Millions to Rs. 28446.700 Millions, largely driven by increased scale necessitating the deployment of additional resources to manage daily operations. Total expenditure as a proportion of total income stood at 82.23% in 2011-12 against 79.82% in 2010-11

 

·         The raw material expenses increased from Rs. 12709.600 Millions in 2010-11 to Rs. 15578.900 Millions in 2011-12. As a percentage of total cost, the same increased from 51.96% to 54.77%. The rise was owing to an increase in the scale of operations and cost of raw materials.

 

·         The employee related costs also increased from Rs. 1531.200 Millions in 2010-11 to Rs. 1846.500 Millions in 2011-12. As a percentage of total cost, the same increased from 6.26% to 6.49%. Annual compensation to employees (comprising nearly 79% of the employee related cost) rose 21% on account of new employees recruited during the year and increments.

 

·         Other expenses comprising rent, administration expenses, selling expenses, among others decreased from 24.15% of the total cost in the previous year to 22.84% in the current year, establishing the effort made by the Company in cutting costs to increase and profitability.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

GLOBAL ECONOMY REVIEW

 

In 2011, the global economy grew 3.8% (5.2% in 2010), emerging economies grew 6.2% (7.3% in 2010) and advanced economies grew 1.6% (3.2% in 2010). This indicates that emerging economies continued to catalyse global growth.

 

INDIAN ECONOMY REVIEW

 

The growth of the Indian economy is estimated at 6.9% in 2011-12 compared with 8.4% in the preceding two years, the lower growth attributed to a weakening global economy, lower industrial growth and reforms slowdown. World Bank has projected India’s GDP growth at 7-7.5% in 2012-13. India’s agricultural sector grew 2.5% compared with 7% in 2010-11.

 

GLOBAL AGROCHEMICAL MARKET

 

The value of the global conventional chemical crop protection market is estimated to have increased 14.9% in 2011 to US$ 44.025 bn; use of agrochemical products in non-farm sectors rose by 7.0% to US$ 6.29 bn. The total agrochemical market increased 13.8% to US$ 50.31 bn in 2011.

 

The most significant crop protection market growth occurred in developing markets, especially Latin America. Asia fared well followed by Europe (double-digit growth in many East European countries including Russia and Ukraine).

 

KEY DRIVERS OF AGRICULTURAL DEMAND

 

·         Increasing population

 

·         Declining arable land per person

 

·         Income growth in developing countries

 

·         Changing diets

 

·         Increasing demands for higher quality foods Biofuel potential

 

REGIONAL MARKETS REVIEW, 2011 USA:

 

In USA, the planted area of cotton and maize increased but area under soybean and cereals declined. The maize season began well, but was thereafter affected by rain at soybean planting time. Ethanol profitability was sustained by low natural gas prices, although maize prices were high in comparison with the oil prices. While the harvest was reportedly high in volume, production quality was affected by adverse weather. The fungicide sector was buoyant due to high maize prices, although Company sales were affected by inventory issues from 2010. In Canada, the planted area of most crops increased, but flooding washed out significant production. The Mexican market was depressed by dry weather.

 

Latin America: Season 2010-11 ended positively due to normal weather, high crop prices and a stable glyphosate market. The 2011-12 market started in a similar vein, with an increased planting of maize, soybeans, sugarcane and cereals in Brazil and maize and soybeans in Argentina. By end 2011, dry weather prevailed in South Brazil and Northern Argentina, while high interest rates and the strength of the Brazilian Real against the US dollar impacted farm profitability. Growth was driven by economic improvement in most developing Latin American markets.

 

Europe: Cereal acreage increased due to higher prices following the drought-affected Russian harvest of 2010. The fungicide sector got off to a good start with an early end to the 2010-11 winter. In the late spring/early summer, a period of dry weather affected product demand and crop production in France, Germany, the Netherlands, south UK and Spain. The market development was positive and agrochemical pricing stable. Improved weather and economic conditions benefited Central and Eastern European markets, although the grain area in Russia was depressed by the 2010 drought continuing into the autumn planting season. Variable weather affected the 2011 harvest in the Ukraine. However, overall development of the agrochemical market in the region was very positive.

 

Asia: The Asian crop protection market was positive in 2011 despite adverse weather condition that staggered growth. The Chinese market was affected by dry weather in the north and a continuing pressure on prices, particularly on glyphosate during the first half of the year. Australia enjoyed better rainfall, although January flooding affected the cotton sector in Queensland. Thailand was affected by severe flooding, which impacted rice production. The tsunami destroyed an area of Japan’s crop production. Rice demand and low stocks sustained a high price, while the palm oil sector enjoyed high prices throughout the year. More stable glyphosate prices assisted market growth in developing East Asian markets. India suffered a variable monsoon season and declining crop prices due to an increased tariff on exports. As a result, market growth did not live up to expectations.

 

Africa and the Middle East: In Africa and the Middle East, growth was driven by exports, particularly fruits, vegetables and flower crops. This was marked in Kenya, Tanzania and North Africa. Political turmoil disrupted trade into many North African markets in 2011, while drought affected East Africa.

 

INDIAN AGROCHEMICAL MARKET

 

The size of the Indian agrochemical industry is projected to grow from Rs. 150000.000 Millions to Rs. 500000.000 Millions by 2020, through innovative farming solutions that address the needs of marginal farmers. To achieve this growth, capacity addition of over 100,000 tpa will be required entailing capital investments of over Rs. 30000.000 Millions with corresponding investments in R and D and farmer-awareness activities. It is estimated that India loses around 18% of the crop yield valued at Rs.90,0000.000 Millions due to pest attacks each year [Source: CARE]. India's agrochemicals consumption is one of the lowest in the world – per hectare consumption of just 0.58 kg compared with the US (4.5 Kg/ha) and Japan (11 Kg/ha). The key reasons for this under-consumption comprise low farmer purchasing power, low crop protection awareness and poor crop protection chemical accessibility.

 

INDIAN AGRARIAN ECONOMY

 

The agricultural sector is vital for the nation and is the principal source of livelihood for more than 58% of the population. The growth of the agriculture and allied sectors is expected to be around 2.5% during 2011-12, according to the Economic Survey 2011-12. India targets to achieve 9.5% average economic growth in the 12th Five-Year Plan (2012-17), on the back of an estimated agricultural growth rate of 4.2%.

 

Agriculture including allied activities, accounted for 14.5% of gross domestic product (GDP) at 2004-05 prices, in 2010- 11 as compared with 14.7% in 2009-10. The average annual growth in agriculture and allied sectors realized during the first four years of the Eleventh Plan Period -- 2007-08 to 2010-11, is 3.5% against the targeted growth rate of 4%. Agriculture and allied sectors recorded. As per the second Advance Estimates, food grain production during 2011-12 is estimated at an all time record level of 250.42 million tons which is a significant achievement mainly due to increased production of rice and wheat.

 

INDUSTRY DRIVERS

 

Growing food demand: India has 16% of the world's population and less than 2% of the world’s landmass. The country’s increasing population and an emphasis on food grain self-sufficiency is expected to drive agrochemical sector growth.

 

Limited farmland availability: India has around 190 mn hectares of gross cultivated area; the scope for bringing new areas under cultivation is limited. Available arable land per capita has been declining globally, increasing the pressure on yield per hectare which can be addressed only through increased agrochemical use.

 

Growth of horticulture and floriculture industries: Buoyed by 50% growth by the Indian floriculture industry in three

years, India launched a National Horticulture Mission to double production by 2012. This growth will translate into a growing demand for agrochemicals (especially fungicides).

 

Increasing awareness: Indian government estimates place the total value of annual crop loss due to non-use of pesticides at around US$ 17 bn. Companies are increasingly training farmers regarding the right use of agrochemicals in terms of quantity, application and appropriateness for pest problems. With increasing awareness, the use of agrochemicals is expected to increase.

 

Scope for increase in usage: With only 35-40% of the total farmland under crop protection, there is a significant unserved market in India.

 

OUTLOOK

 

The global population is expected to grow by over a third (2.3 billion people) between 2009 and 2050. Nearly all of this growth is forecast to take place in developing countries. Among the latter group, sub-Saharan Africa’s population could grow the fastest (+114%) and East and Southeast Asia the slowest (+13%). Urbanisation will accelerate; urban areas could account for 70% of the world’s population in 2050 (from 49% at present). The result: cereal demand is projected to reach some 3 billion tons by 2050 from today’s level of 2.1 billion tons. Feeding a global population of 9.1 billion in 2050 will require raising overall food production by 70% between 2005-07 and 2050.

 

Some 90% of the growth in crop production globally (80% in developing countries) is expected to come from higher yields and increased cropping intensity, the remainder coming from land expansion. Arable land will expand by some 70 million ha (or less than 5%), with the expansion in developing countries by about 120 million ha (or 12%) being offset by a decline of some 50 million ha (or 8%) in developed countries. On average, annual crop yield growth rate over the projection period would be about half (0.8%) its historical growth rate (1.7%; 0.9 and 2.1% for the developing countries) according to FAO. This will require extensive use of agrochemicals.

 

Indian crop losses in the country due to pest attack range from 10 to 30% each year depending upon attack severity. Pesticides protect crops from pest attacks.
