Foodgrains Production in 2012-13 Likely to Cross 250 Mt: 2nd Time in a Row
Pulses Production Likely to Break Earlier Record 2nd Advance Estimates of Crop Production Released | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
India is likely
to produce 250.14 million tonnes of foodgrains during
2012-13 (includes kharif 2012 and rabi crops in the field at present). This, despite a drop of 7 million tonnes in production during kharif, owing to erratic monsoons.
As per the second advance
estimates of crop production released today by the Agriculture Ministry,
production of major crops except pulses is likely to be less than last year,
which happened to be the year of record foodgrain
production helped by a favourable monsoon. In the present crop year (2012-13),
despite deficient and late rainfall in many parts of the country in the monsoon
season, the estimated production is higher than the foodgrain
production achieved any time before last year, showing the growing resilience
of Indian agriculture.
A number of initiatives
have been taken in recent years to increase production of pulses, including
raising MSP of main pulses crops significantly and special schemes to encourage farmers to adopt modern agronomic practices in
pulses production.
The assessment of
production of different crops is based on the feedback received from States and
validated with information available from other sources.
The production estimates for major
crops for 2012-13 as compared to final estimates for the previous 5 years are
as follows:
