Millet
According to the statistics, the production of summer
crops is expected to grow in this fiscal year. The
millet production is likely to grow by a marginal 0.02
percent to 313,987 tonnes. Moreover, a fall in global
prices prompted the government to boost imports
which allowed farmers to obtain fertilizers on time
and the uniform rainfall after the floods until the pre-
harvest period boosted productivity.
