7. History of Fiber Industries
1.The history of the natural fibers industry in India dates back millennia.
2.India held a global monopoly over the manufacturing of cotton textiles for about 3,000 years
- from 1500 B.C. to 1500 A.D.
3.It served as an ideal medium of exchange in the barter economy during the ancient period.
4.During the middle ages, it was exported to Eastern and European markets.
5.This was followed by the establishment of cotton mills.

8. Establishment of Industries
● The first cotton mill in India - 1818 at Fort Gloster - Kolkata -commercial
failure.
● The second - KGN Daber in 1854 - Bombay Spinning and Weaving
Company -true foundation of the modern cotton industry.
● In Ahmedabad (‘Manchester of India’ ) - Shahpur mill and Calico mill
marked the city’s spectacular rise as one of the world’s prime cotton
manufacturing locales.

10. Present Scenario
1. Second largest producer of fibre in the world
2. Silk, jute, wool, and man-made fibers. 60% of the Indian textile Industry is cotton based.
3. 5% to India's GDP, 7% of industry output in value terms, and 12% of the country's
export earnings.
4. Bhilwara of Rajasthan - India's largest manufacturer of fabrics -Textile City of India.

11. Cont.,
● Maharashtra is the leading producer of cotton textile in India.
● Mumbai is called as 'Cottonpolis of India'.
● 2nd largest employer in the country providing direct employment to 45
million people and 100 million people in allied industries.
● Foriegn exchange - 24.6%
● Contribution in industrial production - 14%
11
12. Number of mills in India
● Total number of mills in India 3400 textile mills
● Cotton mills- 1900
● 94 composite jute mills out of which the state of West Bengal has 70 jute
mills
● Silk mills - 300

23. Jute Industries
● Jute-golden fibre
● The first jute mill started production in Bengal
in 1856.
● It is the cheapest vegetable fibre- second most
important fibre after cotton, in terms of usage, global consumption,
production, and availability.
● West Bengal leads jute cultivation
● There are about 94 jute mills - 70 are in West Bengal - river Hooghly.
● Retting process

27. Silk Industries
● Mughal emperors were very fond of silk cloths
and patronised the industry in Bengal and Kashmir.
● First silk textile mill- East India Company at Howrah in 1832.
● New factories- Karnataka (in 1845), Kashmir (1892).
● Pochampally of Andhra Pradesh is named as the "Silk City of India"
● Silk industry -one of the largest generators of employment and foreign
exchange for the country.
● It employment to over 9.1 million people in India during FY20

31. Wool Industries
● India is ranked 9th in the world - production.
● Production contribution 2-3 % of world.
● India have more than 74.26 million sheep
● First woolen textile mill - 1876 at Kanpur and 2nd Dhariwal (Punjab) in
1881.
● Punjab - largest contributor(35%) of woolen goods in India
31
32. Wool production In India
● The country produced 40.42 million kg of wool
whereas its consumption was at 260.8 million
kg in 2019-20.
● There are 42 breeds of sheep in India-Marvari
and Deccani most common
● Productivity of wool is 0.7kg as compared to
2.7kg per sheep

34. Future of cotton and other fibers

35. Future trends of Cotton
● World cotton production is projected to grow 1.5% p.a. to reach 28 Mt in 2030.
● Reasons-an expansion of the cotton area (0.5% p.a.) and growth in average
global yields (1% p.a.).
● India remains world’s largest cotton producer and consumer
● Reason- Production in India is projected to grow by around 1.5% p.a. - higher
yields rather than area expansion, since cotton already competes for acreage
with other crops
35
36. Future trends of Cotton in India
● Support from policies and schemes to the sector in India is expected to result in
continuous growth in cotton mill use.
● The textile industry represents an important component of the country’s
industrial production
● World cotton trade is expected to expand by a quarter to surpass the 11 mt mark
by the end of this decade, by which time sub-Saharan Africa occupy the third
position edging India down to the fourth position.
● By 2030, India’s cotton production is projected to expand to 7.2 Mt
36
37. Area and productivity of Cotton in Future
● Current potion of India in terms of area stands at 1st with more than 12200 thousand hectares.
● Despite of the high area for cotton the productivity of cotton is less than the world average standing at 471 kg/hectare

38. The global players in cotton market in 2021-30
1. Together, these countries
account for more than three-
quarters of global
production.
2.Most of the production
growth in the coming
decade is expected to come
from these countries, with
India accounting for more
than 40% of the global
increase.

39. Future trends of Jute
● Demand of jute is increasing due to following reasons
● Traditional + innovative - Multipurpose jute bags, food grade jute
bags for coffee and tea industry, decorative pieces, jute jewellery
● Jute Geotextiles - to fill gaps between roads
● Automobile panels - by Audi, Porsche, Mercedes Benz car making
companies
● Jute particle board - for construction
● Jute floor coverings, carpets and doormats.
39
40. Future trends of Wool
● Crossbreeding of local breeds with Australian sheep breed merino.
● Production expected to increase due to outbreeding .
● Under Indian Livestock Mission, 1700 merino sheeps imported
● Development of shearing scissors at convenient cost being researched by IIT-
Delhi.

42. Schemes and Policies
● Reasons for implementation of schemes and policies
1.Problems like technological adoption
2.High input cost (power & capital)
3.Poor access to credit
4.Fragmented units
5.Absence of fiber neutrality
● In order to address these issues/problems, Govt. has implemented various
schemes to provide support to Textiles & Apparel Sector:-
42
43. Policies that led to improvement of Textile
Industry
1.Amended Technology Upgradation Fund Scheme for textiles industry
(ATUFS) -2016
2.Scheme for Integrated Textile Parks (SITP) - 2005
3.National Textile policy 2000
4.Scheme Sustainable and Accelerated Adoption of efficient Textile
technologies-2018
43
44. Cont.,
5. Knitting and Knitwear Sector scheme(2019)
6. National Handloom Development Programme(2015)
7. Jute Improved Cultivation and Advanced Retting Exercise(2015)
8. Silk Samagra – An integrated Scheme for development of silk(2014)
44
45. Conclusion
1. Due to Pandemic Textile industry in India doomed.
2. Make in India (2020) led to development of new schemes and aiming at
profits in Sector
3. Pink bollworm can be eradicated with new R and D in this aspect.
4. With all the above mentioned schemes and policies India is most likely to
each the target in future.
