• Changing Consumer Preference:
The sudden shift in consumer preferences towards healthier and more nutritious food options is one of the major factors propelling the market growth. In line with this, the rising adoption of basmati rice, due to its unique aroma, long grains, and nutritional value, is creating a positive outlook for the market growth.

In addition to this, the growing establishment of ethnic restaurants and grocery stores that utilize basmati rice to cater to diverse tastes is fostering the market growth. Additionally, the rising disposable income of consumers, leading to a greater willingness to spend on premium food products, is acting as a growth-inducing factor.
• Increasing Trade Policies and Agreements:
The increasing trade policies and agreements between the region and basmati rice-exporting nations are a major factor boosting the market growth. In line with this, the introduction of favorable trade agreements and reduced tariffs, leading to an increase in basmati rice imports at competitive prices, is creating a positive outlook for the market growth. Moreover, the growing efforts to forge stronger trade relations with major basmati rice-exporting countries to ensure a steady supply of rice while maintaining quality standards is anticipated to drive the market growth. Along with this, the rising focus on regulations regarding the standardization and quality control of basmati rice for maintaining consumer trust and ensuring the health and safety of the population, is positively influencing the market growth.
• Advancements in Agricultural Practices:
The rapid technological advancements in agriculture, leading to improved farming techniques, better quality seeds, and efficient irrigation systems, are major factors fueling the market growth. In line with this, the rising adoption of modern farming practices, such as the implementation of organic farming methods that enable basmati rice farmers to enhance productivity while maintaining the unique characteristics of the rice, is boosting the market growth. Furthermore, rapid advancements in storage and transportation technologies to ensure that products retain their quality during transit are fostering the market growth. Besides this, the increasing research and development (R&D) in agricultural practices to develop new basmati rice varieties that are more resilient to climate change and pest attacks is offering remunerative growth opportunities for the market.
