India’s 2025 beef production (mostly carabeef) is forecast to reach 4.64 million metric tons (MMT), up from 4.57 MMT in 2024, on steady domestic and increased export demand. Post forecasts a four percent increase in carabeef exports in 2025 over 2024 due to growth in demand from countries in the Middle East, South East Asia, and Africa. Domestic consumption is expected to remain the same in 2025 as in 2024 at 2.99 MMT. The calf crop is forecast to grow marginally in 2025 to 71.03 million head, while the cattle herd size is forecast to largely remain unchanged at 307.49 million head.
