Friends,

India's falling exports are a cause of worry to all of us. For the sixth consecutive month in May 2015, exports went down by 20.19 percent to US$ 22.347 billion from the level of US$ 27.998 billion achieved in the same month of 2014.

Contrary to the declining overall exports, oilseeds have recorded a growth. The exports of groundnuts from India increased to a level of 7,08,390 tons during the year 2014-15, in comparison to 5,09,750 tons during 2013-14. In value terms also, exports increased to Rs. 4675.38 crores in comparison to 3187.65 crores.

Sesame seeds exports from India also grew to 3,75,656 tons valued at Rs. 4717.77 crores during 2014-15 as compared to 2,57,441 tons valued at Rs. 3583.46 crores during 2013-14.

The recent announcement of India's Meteorological Department regarding monsoon rains forecast to 88% this year is a cause of concern for the country in general and the agriculture sector in particular.

Prices of various oilseeds are hovering around the levels as follows:

China is a big importer of oilseeds including sesame seed. India being the largest exporter of sesame seed in the world is well positioned to supply a major part of Chinese requirement. Despite the inherent strengths, India is exporting only about 3,400 tons of sesame seed, a miniscule share in total Chinese imports of about 4,45,000 tons. The African countries together export about 3,64,000 tons. We are out-priced by African exporters from Ethiopia, Sudan, Mozambique, Tanzania, Uganda, Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger, who enjoy zero duty on their sesame seed exports to China, while a customs duty of 10% is levied on Indian origin goods. Similarly, import duty on Indian Peanuts is 15% while peanuts from African countries enjoy duty free access.Your Council had requested for negotiating zero duty on Indian oilseeds in China. The issue was also discussed during the JEG meeting held in China in the first week of September, 2014. We have once again requested the government to follow up the issue to include sesame seed and groundnut seeds for zero duty under APTA. Both the oilseeds have high export potential, fetching substantial foreign exchange, without in any way affecting either the oilseed supply or the consumers. If the disadvantage of 10% duty vis-a-vis African countries is removed, India can easily export over 150,000 tonnes sesame seed annually, valued at US$ 300 million (Rs. 1800

3

crores) and 100,000 tonnes of groundnuts valued at about US$ 120 million. (Rs. 720 crores). China being a net importer of all oilseeds, the inclusion of oilseeds in APTA will be in India's favour and even if oilseed imports are there, it will not harm India in any way.At present the export of edible oil is permitted in retail packing of maximum 5 Kg. Export of Edible oil in bulk has not been allowed possibly due to the fear that since India is meeting 50% of its edible oil requirement by way of imports, allowing edible oil exports may hurt its availability in domestic market leading to higher prices. Earlier, the requirement of maximum 5 kg. packing was issued with quantitative restriction on edible oil exports of 10,000 tons. At present, the quantitative restriction has been replaced with minimum export price (MEP) of USD 900 per ton FOB, a more effective policy tool ensuring that only premium edible oils are exported from India. Exporting higher quantity of premium high value oils in bulk (instead of 5 kg. retail pack) will have no adverse effect on the Indian oil prices as we can import much bigger quantity, by exporting high value oils from India. We estimate that with a single unit export of Premium edible oil, about 1.25 to 2.0 units of other oils such as Palm oil or degummed soyabean oil can be imported. The MEP of edible oil is changed keeping into consideration world scenario, domestic availability and global as well as domestic prices. Therefore, there is no need to impose the condition of 5 kg packaging for edible oil exports. Considering the fact that importers largely prefer packing in bulk and 5 kg. retail packing results in higher cost for exporters, this big impediment in increasing exports of oils should be done away with and oils should be allowed to be exported in bulk.We are receiving feedback from our members that due to the presence of Olivier bug in Indian groundnut consignments to Vietnam, the Department of Plant Protection has suspended many fumigation service providers. Due to shortage of fumigation service provider companies, the exporters are being charged exorbitant rates for fumigation of their cargo for exports to Vietnam. It appears that the fumigation charges have gone up from earlier Rs. 2000/- to Rs.8,000/- at present. We have requested the government to take necessary steps so that the exporters are not forced to pay the exorbitant fumigation charges. This will support our competitiveness in exports to Vietnam.

With Best Wishes and Regards

Foreign trade: Government game plan and export strategy

India’s Foreign Trade Policy was recently announced in the backdrop of reduced global trade growth forecast and lack of growth momentum in India’s export growth. India’s export stood at $310 billion for the financial year 2014-15 and missed the target by $30 billion. For the last three to four years, the merchandise export growth has been flat. Recently, the World Trade Organization has also revised its global trade growth forecast to 3.5 percent from its earlier forecast of 4 percent on account of continued slowdown in the global market.Analysts and optimists are intrigued as to how the government will rise to the challenge and turn the tide of foreign trade. Realising the goal of doubling export of goods and services to $900 billion by 2020 will require sustained growth in exports at double digit rates for the next few years, a feat that will be unprecedented, given India’s track record of export performance.The government is relying on strategic, systemic and structural changes to be able to realise the ambitious goal. It aims to bring missionary zeal in support of export growth by bringing all ministries, departments and state governments in sync, by easing export procedures and documentation, and by ensuring better competitiveness and branding of products and services exported from India.There are three key elements in the government’s export growth strategy.Firstly, the government intends to catalyse merchandise export by diversification of market and products, by participation in global value chain, by improving branding and competitiveness of India’s exports, and by reducing transaction cost through online processing of authorisations thus improving ease of doing business. The government’s approach and mainstreaming the trade policy with its economic vision are an integral part of the emerging trade export architecture.Secondly, the government proposes to give a boost to services export by allowing fiscal incentives in the form of SEIS scrip, and ensuring that the agreement on trade in services becomes an integral part of all trade agreements that India proposes to sign or has signed in the recent past. The government expects to boost services export from $145 billion to $300 billion. Trade in services agreement under free trade agreements could contribute significantly in realising this vision.The third, and the most important, part of the strategy is to increase focus on utilisation of trade agreement routes for accelerating export of goods and services. India has existing agreements on

5

the trade of goods with Japan, Korea, Singapore and ASEAN countries, but the utilisation of these agreements has been very low. As a first step, the government aims to increase awareness about the benefits and opportunities under these trade agreements through outreach programmes and operationalisation of its NiryatBandhu scheme.Empowering the exporters and creating an enabling facilitative export ecosystem is the second step in the increased utilisation of trade agreements. Allowing manufacturer-exporters with export performance of $100 million or more to self-certify the country-of-origin (COO) certificates is a substantial facilitation measure and a step in the right direction. However, to be able to avail the benefits of COO self-certification, manufacturer-exporters will have to bring in global best practices in India and set up cross-functional teams that can run an origin management system so as to create auditable records supporting COO certification.Challenges of emerging global trade architecture, with mega-trade agreements becoming a reality in the next few years, is planned to be effectively dealt with by focussing on signing new agreements like the Regional Comprehensive Economic Cooperation (or Partnership?), India EU Free Trade Agreement (check name) etc. Policymakers are very clear that services agreement will be an integral part of the first phase of new trade agreements on goods and services so that India can play on its strength of robust services sector contributing to quick utilisation of benefits under the new agreements. Policy focus on export of intermediate products could help in countering some of the adverse effects of India not being party to Trans-Pacific Partnership and Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership.The elements of export growth strategy are embedded in the larger institutional mechanism being put in place to create the enabling environment for every stakeholder. The new policy adopts a new and holistic approach to foreign trade.The unsaid part of the policy is its critical dependence on exporters of goods and services who will need to develop and implement their own five-year foreign trade plan that is aligned to government initiatives. In our view, the winner in the game would be the organisations that are able to mimic the government strategy and adapt it to their own context.Good understanding of the current facts, clear vision of the future, well-articulated organisational goals and clearly laid out road maps by organisations dealing with export of goods and services would be the key building blocks for the success of the export growth strategy. Organisational mind-

6

set of relying on fiscal incentives will be passé. Developing a robust, responsive, adaptive and competitive backbone of the export organisation, which integrates well with the emerging global trade architecture, would be the key to India’s effort to turn the tide of foreign trade and grow at an unprecedented rate.Source : Forbes India

EU to ban Ghana from exporting peanut

Ghana faces a possible ban on groundnuts exported to the EU following high recorded incidence of aflatoxin contamination of the crop yields.The European Commission recently conducted a thorough examination on vegetables, groundnuts and other cereals produced in Ghana, and found that a large quantity of these produce are vested with high level of aflatoxin, making them unfit for the international market.Aflatoxin are toxic metabolites produced by certain fungi in and on foods and feeds, which reduces the quality of the host crop and is associated with various diseases -- such as aflatoxicosis in livestock, domestic animals and humans.Over the years there have been severe mortalities in especially livestock and sometimes illness and death in humans due to Aflatoxin contamination, as a result of which many countries attempt to limit exposure to aflatoxins by imposing regulatory limits on commodities intended for use as food and feed.Latest figures available indicate that Ghana made US$2.4billion from non-traditional exports, of which groundnuts accounted for US$6.4million in 2013; and government has set an ambitious target to rake in US$5billion from the sector by 2019.B&FT has gathered any imminent ban of groundnuts could jeopardise government’s hopes of expanding the scope of non-traditional commodities to increase foreign exchange earnings from that sector.In the quest to help reduce the level of aflatoxin contamination in groundnuts, peanut butter and cereal products to meet the EU technical regulations and standards, the Ghana Export Promotion Authority (GEPA) in collaboration with Trade Relate Assistance and Quality Enabling Programme (TRAQUE)-European UnionAgency, has rolled-out a capacity building project to sensitise players along the value-chain of these crops.The training programme is being funded by the EU and seeks to train 2,000 stakeholders within BrongAhafo, Northern, Upper East and Upper

7

West Regions in good agricultural practices, with much emphasis on prevention of and controlling aflatoxin contamination in groundnuts.The beneficiary trainees, including farmers, processors, traders and agricultural extension officers, will be taken through aspects such as pre-harvest operations; selection of good planting site and seeds; quality assurance and risk management; on-farm and off-farm practices.Speaking during one of such outreach programmes at Techiman in the BrongAhafo Region, Stephen Normeshie, General Manager, GEPA, underscored the merits of the capacity building training so as to fully harness economic potentials of groundnuts and cereals to diversify and boost Ghana’s foreign exchange basket.“The GEPA believes that preventing and controlling fungus contamination has the potential of enhan +9cing quality groundnuts and cereals export to the international markets. This will make it possible to utilise the rich and abundant groundnuts and cereals export resource potentials available in the country.“Ghana, with its favourable climatic conditions and abundant rich soil, has comparative and competitive advantage in groundnuts and cereals exports, and hence it is well-positioned to take advantage of the international market opportunities to develop the sector,” he said.Groundnuts production in African countries has over the years fluctuated, but it has never exceeded 8% of world output over the last decade. Yields per hectare are low due to a chain of factors: unreliable rain-pattern, non-irrigated cultures; dominance of traditional and unproductive farming practices; outbreaks of pests and diseases; and the use of low-yielding seed varieties among others.In the last five years, annual average groundnuts world export has been around 1.2 million tonnes valued at over US$984million, of which nearly two-thirds was produced by developing countries. About 80% of exports consisted of edible groundnut varieties, with the remaining 20% used for crushing.

NirmalaSitharaman bats for weaker rupee to boost exports

Commerce minister NirmalaSitharaman said India's export recovery was dependent on rupee weakening to "a realistic market rate" and reinforced the government's concerns over a credit crunch. "I'll always look for a weaker rupee because I am sitting here (commerce ministry)

8

and it will help exports," she told in an interview.

"I also worry, however, about depreciating currencies, especially the euro coupled with slowing demand there and our own appreciating rupee." India's exports fell 13.96% in April. "The rupee has to reach a realistic market level for us (government and exporters) to get aclearer picture on just what to do about the situation," Sitharaman said.

She also echoed some of the finance ministry's worries on expensive credit and high interest rates.Source: The Economic Times

Export infrastructure on mind, Commerce Ministry seeks Rs 300 crore from Finance Ministry

Worried over a steep decline in exports, the Commerce Ministry has sought Rs 300 crore to develop export infrastructure around ports."We have to modernise our export infrastructure in order to boost exports. Export situation is not good. We have sought Rs 300 from the Finance Ministry to develop the infrastructure," a top commerce ministry official told.The amount is proposed to be used this fiscal only to set testing laboratories, certification centres, warehouses, cold storages, convention centres and exhibition centresaround ports.The Commerce Ministry has identified some ports where the funds would be deployed.The official said the Finance Ministry has provided only Rs 50 crore, which is not adequate and "we have urged them to increase the allocations".India's exports dipped deeper into the negative zone, recording a decline of 21 per cent in March, the biggest fall in the past six years, pulling down the total shipment for 2014-15 to USD 310.5 billion, missing the target of USD 340 billion.Exports have been on a downward loop since December last year. The previous biggest decline in export was in July 2009, when it slumped 28.4 per cent.India's exports are contracting mainly because of inadequate infrastructure, global demand slowdown, soft crude oil prices, and a declining competitiveness of Indian exporters.An industry expert said inadequate infrastructure and old testing and certification facilities near ports are impacting the country's exports adversely, besides pushing the transaction costs up.A commerce ministry's strategy paper released in

9

2010 had emphasised on the need to invest billions to boost exports. It had asked the government to invest to modernise roads, ports, railways, airports, power and customs stations."Port infrastructure needs to be modernised to reduce transaction costs and boost shipments," FIEO President said.India's exports in the last three years have been hovering around USD 300 billion. India's exports in 2013-14 fell short of the USD 325 billion target, managing to reach USD 314 billion. It stood at USD 300.4 billion in 2012-13 and USD 307 billion in 2011-12.Source: The Economic Times

Trade Ministers of 16 countries to meet in July to clinch RCEP

Trade Ministers of 16 countries, including India, may meet in July in Kuala Lumpur to iron out issues related to the mega trade deal --Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership agreement. The 16-member Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) comprises 10 ASEAN members and their six free trade agreement (FTA) partners namely India, China, Japan, Korea, Australia and New Zealand.The 16 economies account for over a quarter of the world economy. RCEP negotiations were launched in Phnom Penh in November 2012. The countries would deliberate on issues pertaining to goods, services and investments, an official said.The meeting assumes significance as the pact is targeted to be concluded this year. The mega trade deal aims to cover goods and services, investments, economic and technical cooperation, competition and intellectual property. India is seeking a parallel movement of negotiations on goods and services. It is pressing for services agreement as the sector contributes over 50 per cent in the country's economic growth. Indian IT companies have strong presence across the globe.India had asked the members to focus on value addition in services, besides working towards to improving investment climate to spur trade and boost growth in the region. Besides this, India is also focusing on concluding the negotiations for the free trade agreements with Canada and Australia.
