&lt;em&gt;Food Corporation of India storages are spilling from excess food stocks and the new Kharif procurement season is only a month away&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Union government was mulling over selling excess foodgrains to some African countries before the new Kharif procurement season starts next month, according to a government official.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;There is a plan under consideration to use foodgrains as diplomatic tools for African countries like Ghana, which is a net food importer,&amp;rdquo; the official of the Union Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public distribution, told Down To Earth on the condition of anonymity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;Ghana is a model country for the rest of West Africa in terms of governance and trade. If Ghana will start importing our foodgrains, other food-deficient countries on the continent like Nigeria, Cameroon, Namibia, Mauritania, Mali and others will follow suit,&amp;rdquo; he added.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A new trade agreement between India and Ghana as well as other African countries is yet to be signed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
According to the consumer affairs ministry, Food Corporation of India (FCI) godowns were spilling over due to excess buffer stocks. In the month of August, 2019, the total buffer stock was 71.1 million metric tonnes (MMT), which was double the food stocking norm of around 36.1 MMT.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the month of July, the food stock was more than double than the prescribed norm. The stock of rice was more than 2.5 times than the norm whereas wheat was 1.84 times the given norm. The excess stock has been increasing since 2016.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;em&gt;Food Corporation of India storages are spilling from excess food stocks and the new Kharif procurement season is only a month away&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Union government was mulling over selling excess foodgrains to some African countries before the new Kharif procurement season starts next month, according to a government official.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;There is a plan under consideration to use foodgrains as diplomatic tools for African countries like Ghana, which is a net food importer,&amp;rdquo; the official of the Union Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public distribution, told Down To Earth on the condition of anonymity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;Ghana is a model country for the rest of West Africa in terms of governance and trade. If Ghana will start importing our foodgrains, other food-deficient countries on the continent like Nigeria, Cameroon, Namibia, Mauritania, Mali and others will follow suit,&amp;rdquo; he added.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A new trade agreement between India and Ghana as well as other African countries is yet to be signed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
According to the consumer affairs ministry, Food Corporation of India (FCI) godowns were spilling over due to excess buffer stocks. In the month of August, 2019, the total buffer stock was 71.1 million metric tonnes (MMT), which was double the food stocking norm of around 36.1 MMT.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the month of July, the food stock was more than double than the prescribed norm. The stock of rice was more than 2.5 times than the norm whereas wheat was 1.84 times the given norm. The excess stock has been increasing since 2016.&lt;br /&gt;

If Ghana will start importing our foodgrains, other food-deficient countries on the continent like Nigeria, Cameroon, Namibia, Mauritania, Mali and others will follow suit,” he added. A new trade agreement between India and Ghana as well as other African countries is yet to be signed.
