Pulses production may surpass 20 MT from 16.4 MT in 2015-16
 
New Delhi: Pinning hopes on conducive weather conditions prevailing currently and an increase in sowing areas of rabi crops — wheat, pulses, oilseeds and coarse cereals — compared to last five years, the government is aiming at a bumper foodgrains output for the ongoing crop year (2016-17) after two consecutive drought years.

While the rabi sowing activities have been completed in most parts of the country, the government is aiming at a bumper grain output in excess of 270 million tonnes (MT) in the current crop year (July-June) in anticipation of major jump in pulses and wheat production.

“We are confident of achieving a record foodgrains production which would boost agricultural growth after two back to back drought years,” Shobhana K Pattanayak, secretary, department of agriculture and cooperation told FE.

Pattanayak said that because of bumper kharif crops, pulses output is expected to surpass 20 MT from 16.4 MT reported in 2015-16.
