MAJOR THEMEFood Processing Technologies – Challenges & Solutions for Sustainable Food Security
An International Conference On Food Technology
rd3 Incoftech-2013
Mankind will soon be facing the greatest challenge to feed the increased world
population. Depleting inputs in agriculture such as water, land and quality seeds
along with the need to cut down on chemicals for plant production and
protection will cause great stress on our food production systems.
Unprecedented population growth and poverty in most developing countries will
result in insufficient food supplies to more than half of the world population.
India is in a much better situation than most countries in the world in terms of
agricultural production. We stand first or second in the production of most crops
in the world. Abundant sunlight, sufficient rainfall, perennial rivers, varied agro-
climatic zones, warm and long marine landings, and fertile soils have helped India
reach self sufficiency from gross insufficiencies at the time of Independence and
till the onset of the first green revolution in the early seventies.
Though we are self sufficient food supplies, the availability of foods for most
people, particularly the economically weaker sections, is far from sufficient. This
is due to poor post harvest management. Distribution to remote markets
requires increased shelf life of the perishable produce. Non-availability of
suitable post harvest processing, preservation and value addition technologies
result in great losses in the post harvest system causing poor food distribution to
most people in India. Food Security for India's weaker sections means effectively
saving and managing the foods and making them available in remote domestic
markets. This will not only make more foods available for domestic consumption,
but will also help us to increase our export potential. The economic status of
producers will also improve resulting in an inclusive growth. We need newer
technologies suitable to India's conditions and newer ventures in food industries
to process; preserve and value add India specific crops.
Creating awareness amongst stake holders on the values of food processing
businesses, the values and qualities of available technologies, and the newer
developments in technologies for processing, preservation and value addition of
foods are essential for effectively managing our foods and for reducing post
harvest losses.
Preamble
rdThe 3 INCOFTECH – 2013 has
multifold objectives:
n
leaders of science in food processing sector
from within India and around the world for
discussions on the current focus and future
directions of food processing research,
industries and education.
n Sharing the research results amongst peers
in science and the stake holders in the food
industry.
n Highlighting the available energy and
labour saving technologies for processing,
preserving and value adding to foods.
n Creating awareness among new and
experienced entrepreneurs and other
stake holders on the values of venturing in
new food processing businesses.
Creating a confluence of contemporary
conference objectives
Indian Institute of Crop Processing Technology (IICPT) is a world class Educational and
Research Institution under the aegis of the Ministry of Food Processing Industries,
Government of India. The Institute is located in a panoramic campus on the outskirts of
Thanjavur, India. The institute has state-of-the-art and hi-tech research and teaching
laboratories, and a food processing business incubation centre. Conducting basic and
applied R&D in post harvest processing, preservation and value addition of food crops;
creating manpower for food processing sector by offering Bachelor’s, Master’s and
doctoral degrees in food process engineering and through short term training and
non-formal courses in food processing technologies; conducting outreach programs across
the country to popularize food processing technologies; offering consultancies for creation
of new food industries or food testing laboratories; and information generation and flow on
food processing technologies and to create linkages with related industries, academia and
R&D Institutions across the country and around the world are the major activities of IICPT.
The Institute has strong tie-ups with many national and international research and
academic institutions.

Ministry of Food Processing Industries (MoFPI), Government of India is the nodal agency of
the Central Government responsible for developing a strong and vibrant food processing
sector, with a view to creating job opportunities in rural areas, enabling the farmers to reap
benefit from modern technologies, creating surplus for exports and stimulating demand for
processed foods. The Ministry acts as a catalyst and facilitator for attracting domestic and
foreign investments towards developing large integrated processing capacities by creating
conducive policy environment, including rationalization of taxes and duties.
