Issues before the castor industry will be in focus at the 17th Global Castor Conference, to be held by The Solvent Extractors' Association (SEA) at Hotel Courtyard by Marriott, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, on February 22 and 23, 2019. The conference will bring the castor fraternity together.
India meets 90 per cent of the global demand of castor oil, and the conference holds an important place as India’s exports of castor oil and derivatives are estimated to be worth over Rs 7,500 crore ($ 1.1 billion) per annum. The global castor derivatives market estimated to be over $3 billion is highly dependent on India.
The conference will deliberate and focus on the issues before the castor industry and arrive at the solutions following fruitful interactions with eminent speakers and panellists from India and overseas.
It will unfold the latest status of the Indian and global castor oil scenarios, and also present the findings of the Castor Crop Survey 2018, conducted in key castor-growing states, viz Gujarat, Rajasthan and Andhra Pradesh by the renowned market survey agency.
Over 400 delegates from Indian and overseas will gather to develop new business contacts and also to strengthen the existing ones.
Over two days, the participants will be witness to various presentations and the distribution of awards. The highlights of the event include the global castor oil consumption outlook and emerging trend, the World Outlook for Castor Oil 2019, a special presentation on forex, SEA’s extension programme for castor seed yield improvement and the way forward report, value-added products from castor oil, castor oil price forecast, the Indian Castor Crop Survey 2018-19, and more.
