Abstract

                                To combat the Food Crisis in the country, planning for production to the needs of its several regions has to be undertaken. Precise statistics of home supplies in this regard are a fundamental requirement. Past agricultural crises, in this and in other countries of the world have been the result of the paucity of agricultural statistics of production and requirement. Present position, in this line, made no appreciable improvement to warrant the avoidance of such crises, in the future. Since the period required for production in agriculture is longer than in other industries, farming is extremely sensitive and gets into a crisis sooner than other industries.
