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.
These approved projects are under the purview of MIDA while the main custodian of the projects under the agricultural sector is the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Industries which also approves annual investment projects. For further investment incentives, please visit their website.
Food Processing
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 dependency 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.
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.
