India is an agricultural country and nearly 83% of the cultivable area is under food crops, 31.6% under rice, 29% under millets and other cereals and 24.7% under wheat. In spite of these, we are in deficit in food grains and import large quantities from outside. There was of course a reduction in area under food crops - due to the partition of the country. The proportion was unfavourable to us as the Indian Union has to maintain 78% of her original population with only 717% of original area under rice and 72% under wheat and hence naturally our problem is one of cultivation with the limited area available.
