MoA&FW Launches First-Ever Edible Oil Consumption Survey
What Happened
The Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare launched India's first-ever edible oil consumption survey on the MyGov portal in January 2025. This 45-day survey aims to collect primary data on household consumption patterns, brand preferences, and health awareness across the country.
Why It Matters
The survey provides essential data to streamline the National Mission on Edible Oils-Oilseeds and reduce India's heavy fiscal burden as the world's largest edible oil importer.
