Per capita meat and pork consumption is highest in Nagaland, India. The present study analysed pork production
and its consumption in Nagaland, North East India vis-à-vis the pork value chain. In Nagaland, two processes are
simultaneously present: a high demand of pork and a continous decline in the pig population. The pig population in
Nagaland has decreased by almost 42% since 2007 and almost 20% since 2012. Highest pork production in Nagaland
was recorded in 2014–2015 with 60.45 thousand metric tonnes and then it declined to 15.77 thousand metric
tonnes in 2018–2019. Compounded annual growth rate in pig population and pork production saw negative growth
rate during last two decades. In consumption basket, pork constitutes almost 50% of total meat consumed. The
state is deficit by 51.34% in meat production in 2017–18. The structure of pig value chain is dominated by small
holder farms, traditional out dated technology, unorganized input services, lack of infrastructure, and absence of
marketing channels. To make the pig value chain competitive, there is urgent need to revamp the pig production
technology, strengthen the marketing infrastructure including slaughter houses, and increase in credit flow in the
pig sector.
