India's agricultural products export touched a new milestone by crossing $ 50 billion for the financial year FY22. This would be the highest level ever achieved for agriculture exports.

The provisional data of DGCI&S showed that the agricultural exports have grown by 19.92% during 2021-22 to touch $ 50.21 billion. The growth rate is remarkable as it is over and above the growth of 17.66%, at $41.87 billion, achieved in 2020-21 and has been achieved in spite of unprecedented logistical challenges in the form of high freight rates, container shortages, etc. This achievement over the past two years will go a long way in realizing the Prime Minister’s vision of improving farmers’ income.

As per the data, the highest ever exports have been achieved for staples like rice (% 9.65 billion), wheat ($ 2.19 billion), sugar ($ 4.6 billion), and other cereals ($ 1.08 billion). Wheat has recorded an unprecedented growth of more than 273%, jumping nearly four-fold from $ 568 million in 2020-21 to touch close to $ 2119 million in 2021-22. An increase in exports of these products has benefitted farmers in states like Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, West Bengal, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, etc. India has captured nearly 50% of the world's market for rice.

Meanwhile, exports of marine products also reached the highest ever at $ 7.71 billion, benefitting farmers in the coastal states of West Bengal, Andhra Pradesh, Odisha, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Maharashtra, and Gujarat. Spices exports have touched $ 4 billion for the second year in a row. Despite facing tremendous supply-side issues, coffee exports have crossed USD 1 billion for the first time, which has improved realizations for coffee growers in Karnataka, Kerala, and Tamil Nadu.
In a statement, the Ministry of Commerce & Industry said, "this achievement is the result of sustained efforts on the part of the Department of Commerce and its various export promotion agencies like APEDA, MPEDA, and various commodity boards. The Department has made special efforts to engage State Governments and district administrations in promoting agriculture exports."

To ensure that the farmers benefit from exports, the Department of Commerce has made special efforts to provide export market linkage directly to farmers and FPOs. A Farmer Connect Portal has been set up for providing a platform for farmers, FPOs/FPCs, and cooperatives to interact with exporters.
"This approach has resulted in agriculture exports taking place from hitherto unexplored areas. Exports have taken place from clusters like Varanasi (fresh vegetables, mangoes), Ananthpur (banana), Nagpur (orange), Lucknow (mango), Theni (banana), Solapur (pomegranate), Krishna & Chittoor (mango), etc. Initiatives like ‘Happy Banana’ train, an exclusive train with reefer containers to transport bananas from Anantapur to JNPT, Mumbai have been taken to boost exports from unconventional areas," the ministry said.
Further, the ministry said, "Department of Commerce is continuing efforts to promote agriculture export so that the momentum gained over the past two years is sustained and agriculture exports touch new highs over the coming years."

As per the ministry, the Covid-19 outbreak in the first quarter led to rising in the demand for staples, which provided an opportunity for increasing agriculture exports. Due to the institutional framework, already in place at State and district levels, and special efforts made to overcome the pandemic-induced bottlenecks, India was able to rise to the occasion and emerge as a reliable supplier of food. Even during the current crisis due to the Russia–Ukraine war, the world is looking at India for supplies of wheat and other food grains.

How can any sensible person, if he or she puts mind to it, object to such a wonderful and humane bunch of thoughts ? How can any rational person for example not want true democracy and not want the end of the oppression by that artificial construct called money and its attendent socio-economic classes ( rich, middle, poor ) ?

How can any sensible person endorse such a destructive and failed ideology.

So we fed already by exporting such a huge quantity of wheat. However, because of Russia, Ukrain war, 30 pc supply has stopped. These are special circumstaces. In normal circumstances, India can fed.

@jamahir is my brother. Hands off my brother, no one calls him "inferior". Borders mean nothing.

@jamahir bhai do you consider Modi supporters "fellow Indians"?

Wheat and cooking oil. Whole world is heading towards the shortage of these two things.

Bangladeshis don't eat a whole bunch of wheat. but 57% of India's wheat exports do go there.

If Bangladesh wants, it can become self-sufficient in producing wheat in two years. Northwestern Bangladesh has perfect weather for producing wheat (and also sugarcane).

Bangladesh will be importing Canola oil from Canada. Arrangements have been made, Trudeau requested this.

Umm, you are not making sense. Please rewrite in simple and elaborate words.

My point is about the nonsense that Modi utters every time. Like India being a "Vishwaguru" ( Teacher to the world ) that he said to some international leaders in early 2021 ? Really ? India is a teacher to the world in what ? And then there was this grand expounding by him :

@jamahir is my brother. Hands off my brother, no one calls him "inferior". Borders mean nothing.

Thanks Bilal bhai. @Farhan Bohra, I agree with Bilal bhai's word fully. The three are my brothers and I correspond with them regularly on various topics in the world. This is the internet and this is an international forum and we are all humans of intellect and have the human right to discuss to discuss anything. And to emphasize Bilal bhai's point about borders, we should be speaking of erasing national borders because the Nation State is an artificial, recent concept brought about by the French Revolution which itself came to abolish monarchy. How should all that strike you as me being inferior ? How are you being logical even ?

@jamahir bhai do you consider Modi supporters "fellow Indians"?

Absolutely not ! They are the direct continuation of the 3000-year-old political and socio-economic system in India that is the reason of every ill in India, whether its about farmer suicide, student suicide or that thread I posted about students in Uttar Pradesh having to eat a chapati and salt as their entire mid-day meal and the journalist who reported this atrocity getting arrested by Modi's disciple Yogi and then after getting released getting cancer and dying not because there was no treatment for his condition in India but because he did not have money to pay to the hospital. A murder done by the system. Modi's supporters are participants in that murder however much they scream "Bharat Mata Ki Jai". Modi's supporters are traitors who would salivate over military weaponry and being warmongers than speak of changing the internal systems in India such that India becomes a harmonious, humane, rational, scientific and advanced society for the first time in 3000 years. Please hear this, Farhan.

Nice.

 

[Chat SAMOSA]

Capable honest leaders do not have to concern themselves with perception of unmitigated consistency or otherwise by others. They know the difference between fortitude and obstinacy.

In the wheat situation Modi govt has done the absolutely right things so far. Banning exports stops sale for just and only maximum price. Otherwise the totally rich countries will buy it all and hoard.

The ban then brings the stocks under indirect control of the govt which then by expedient policy can direct exports where it makes most sense to Humanity, India and Farmers.


We are a dependent nation importing oil for which there is opec etc controlling supplies and prices. We have to compensate with what we have.

Staple food shortage coming, China is stocking basic food in big quantity.

India will feel the heat, literally due to global warming and water shortage, so will Pakistan.

Didn't India stopped wheat exports, a good decision.

 

[Surya 1]

Because of robust irrigation facility, Indian farmer is no more muvh dependent on rain like he used to be few years ago.

Modi's supporters are participants in that murder however much they scream "Bharat Mata Ki Jai".

Spices exports have touched $ 4 billion for the second year in a row.

The Department has made special efforts to engage State Governments and district administrations in promoting agriculture exports."

"This approach has resulted in agriculture exports taking place from hitherto unexplored areas. Exports have taken place from clusters like Varanasi (fresh vegetables, mangoes), Ananthpur (banana), Nagpur (orange), Lucknow (mango), Theni (banana), Solapur (pomegranate), Krishna & Chittoor (mango), etc. Initiatives like ‘Happy Banana’ train, an exclusive train with reefer containers to transport bananas from Anantapur to JNPT, Mumbai have been taken to boost exports from unconventional areas," the ministry said.
Further, the ministry said, "Department of Commerce is continuing efforts to promote agriculture export so that the momentum gained over the past two years is sustained and agriculture exports touch new highs over the coming years."

Being boastful is bad especially when a large portion of your population is starving. Now India suddenly had to stop the exports because there might be food shortages soon in India. I am. Not trying to insult you but I think India is governed by boastful idiots. China has almost the same pop as India and produces even more wheat, our government is stockpiling wheat instead of selling it.
