September 04, 2025

Maharashtra has topped the list of states with the most favourable ecosystem for the growth of Farmer Producer Organisations (FPOs), replacing Madhya Pradesh, which has slipped to second place, according to the latest Ease of Doing Business for FPOs (EoDBF) ranking.

The rankings were released as part of the State of the Sector Report on FPOs (SOFPO), launched on Wednesday. SOFPO is an annual report brought out by the National Association for FPOs (NAFPO), Samunnati, and the Rabo Foundation.

In the 2024 ranking, Madhya Pradesh was the top-performing state, followed by Maharashtra, while Uttar Pradesh has consistently held the third position.

As of March 2025, Maharashtra had around 14,788 registered FPOs, accounting for nearly 34 per cent of the total in India, according to the SOFPO database.
