Feasibility analysis of Tray Dried Meat production in India
K. Varalakshmi
Abstract :
The economic analysis of dried meat production in India was studied on large scale processing unit. Comparison was also made among the different dried meat products for estimating the value addition in dried meat production. The data on input use and output yields were used to work out Comparative economics for dried chunks, dried powder and value added products produced by drying, powdering, and cooking. High capital investment (Rs.72.38 lakhs) has been found in value added products than drying (Rs.61.49 lakhs) indicating capital intensive nature of further processing. Cost of production per kg was found to be highest (Rs.757.59/kg) for value added products. Cost of further processing over drying worked out to be Rs.6.9 and 90.49 /kg for powder and value added products respectively. Value–addition was highest for value added products (99.54/kg) compared to dried powder (7.19/kg). The results showed economic potential and worthiness of dried meat products with higher profits in further processed products with potential application in defence services to provide variety of meat products with long shelf life.
