India's Ethanol Push Creates Unmonitored Feed Market

India's focus on ethanol production has unintentionally spawned a new feed market that lacks government oversight.

India's ambitious ethanol production program, aimed at reducing reliance on fossil fuels, has inadvertently created a significant new market for animal feed. This market, however, lacks the monitoring and regulation typically applied to agricultural sectors. The absence of government oversight raises concerns about potential market manipulation, price instability, and the quality and safety of feed products. Experts are calling for the government to establish a framework for regulating this emerging market to protect both farmers and consumers.
