- Description
- Farmer profitability, cost of food production, and associated issues of nutri-cereals are analysed by leveraging a large database spanning a 35-year period. The skewed food policies being followed in India are highlighted here. An unacceptably high distortion in inter-crop parity was found, which led to loss of profitability, increased costs, and lower prices for the nutri-cereals. The policymakers must take corrective measures in several aspects, including technologies, prices, input provision, processing, storage, and distributional policies to promote the production and consumption of nutri-cereals in India. 2023 Economic and Political Weekly.
