Question

Do you
think it is important for India to be
self-sufficient in food grains production?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes. It is important to be self-sufficient in food grains. ... Unless we are self sufficient in the production of Food Grains, it is not possible to provide food to all.India stands 97th in Oxfam's Food Availability Index, and 103rd in the 2018 Global Hunger Index. A country can be called self-sufficient only when it produces enough to meet its domestic needs. ... Government's own data shows that the country is not self-sufficient.

Explanation:

India is an agricultural country. We have the resources for the production of all food grains. We must exploit our resources to be able to meet our food grain requirements .By increasing the food grain production, we will not only be independent but also will be able to export the same. In this way we will increase our foreign capital and will also be able to control the rate of essential commodities

India achieved self-sufficiency in food grains in the 1970s. Since the mid-1990s it has consistently been able to ensure that there is enough food (in terms of calories) available to feed its entire population.
