Mounting pressure from growing population, adverse threats of climate change, fragmented landholding and high input cost are posing challenges in front of India’s food security. MOHD MUSTAQUIM highlights measures to be taken to ensure country’s food security Urbanisation and growing non-agricultural business establishments in rural India have led to shrinking cultivation area. However, through increasing productivity by growing High Yielding Varieties (HYV), India is food secure. India’s foodgrain production increased from 50.82 million tonnes in 1950-51 to more than 260 million tonnes at present. But food security has to be examined in terms of availability, accessibility, utilization and vulnerability. Therefore, apart from production policies and programmes relating to buffer stocking, distribution, monitoring prices become important.
