India to Boost Beef Production
Indian beef production is predicted to increase by 5% in 2009.
This is reported to be due to strong export demand and rising domestic consumption (ZMP and Brazilian Meat Monitor).
According to reports, production of mainly buffalo meat is set to rise to approximately 2.7 million tonnes. Around a third of production (850,000 tonnes) is predicted to be exported, mainly to South East Asia and the Gulf states.
In such markets where Australian and Indian product co-exist, Australian beef faces considerable price competition from Indian buffalo beef.
There is major potential for India to significantly increase production because of the current low level of technology across the supply chain.
Currently, India is considered the world’s third biggest beef exporter in terms of volume, behind Brazil and Australia.

I can't imagine the karma
I can't imagine the karma that India will reap because of this. The western states are running out of their pious karma and it's showing as problems are increasing in the course of time, India has no pious karma to work off of.
