Thousands of tonnes of wool produced, but 90% wasted
India's wool industry remains underdeveloped despite vast production, with most wool discarded due to a lack of research and a proper supply chain. Experts highlight issues of standardisation, quality, and processing, leading to increased waste and surging imports. Proposed solutions include establishing processing centres and validating wool's use through scientific research for wider applications.
