Agriculture and Food Processing
Agriculture
The agro-food industry continues to be an important component of the manufacturing sector. Major sub-sectors in the agro-food industry include livestock farming, fisheries, and fruits and vegetables with significant linkages to the country’s food processing sub-sector. Besides the major sub-sectors, apiculture, floriculture and ornamental fish farming are also significant contributors in this industry.
Food Processing
The food processing sub-sector plays an important role as Malaysia moves steadily towards building a more diversified economy, with the next wave of business and investment opportunities being in high-value food product manufacturing. To stay competitive, food manufacturers are constantly seeking to find faster and more efficient ways to meet consumer demands, moving towards more automated, flexible, and efficient ways of doing business.

The Government is encouraging industry players to innovate and adopt more advanced technologies in their operations. Aside from boosting agricultural productivity, increasing self-sufficiency, and reducing their dependence on imported agricultural products, these advanced technologies would also allow businesses to increase profitability, as well as lead to more efficient, safer and more environmental-friendly production processes.
