Bihar has always played its role to meet the goals of National Food Security since time immemorial. A major emphasis was laid towards production of cereals, oilseeds, cash crops, etc. Unfortunately it lagged in pulse production although the geotopographical situation is favourable for almost all pulses grown in the country. This article provides the reasons for such constraint and possible remedies and solution based on current scenario prevailing in the state.

Abstract


Bihar has always played its role to meet the goals of National Food Security since time immemorial. A major emphasis was laid towards production of cereals, oilseeds, cash crops, etc. Unfortunately it lagged in pulse production although the geotopographical situation is favourable for almost all pulses grown in the country. This article provides the reasons for such constraint and possible remedies and solution based on current scenario prevailing in the state.
