| Sumario: | Transforming agri-value chains has emerged as a central policy challenge for India as agriculture shifts from a primary production-oriented sector to one that is increasingly shaped by markets, value additions and consumer demand. Moreover, as agriculture becomes increasingly integrated with markets, technology, finance and services, the role of agribusiness and value-chain institutions in shaping development outcomes has grown both in scale and complexity.
Against this backdrop, the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) and CGIAR Program on Policy Innovations in collaboration with the Agricultural Economics Research Association (AERA) and its co-organizers, convened a policy dialogue on “Transforming AgriValue Chains: Emerging Frontiers for Agribusiness” on 3 December 2025 at ICAR–NAARM, Hyderabad. The policy dialogue brought together policymakers, researchers, practitioners, and development partners to examine how agri-value chains (AVCs) and agribusiness can drive inclusive, productive, and resilient agri-food system transformation in India.
