Export Performance of Indian Agriculture.

      Аннотация: India possesses diverse agro-climatic conditions, which create highly favorable circumstances for cultivating a wide range of crops throughout the year. In the 75 years since Indian Independence, the agriculture and allied sectors have undergone remarkable advancements. Notably, foodgrain production has witnessed a staggering increase from a meager 55 million tonnes to an astounding 308.65 million tonnes (4th Advance Estimates) in the fiscal year 2020-21. Agriculture serves as a significant source of livelihood for approximately 58 percent of the population and contributes a notable 20.2 percent to the Gross Value Added (GVA) at current prices in the fiscal year 2020-21, as indicated by Agricultural Statistics at a Glance in 2021. Amid the adversities posed by the pandemic, the agricultural sector remained resilient, distinguishing itself as one of the few segments to maintain robustness. India excels as the top producer of various commodities such as milk, spices, pulses, tea, cashew, and jute. Additionally, it holds the second-largest producer position for commodities like rice, wheat, oilseeds, fruits and vegetables, sugarcane, and cotton.
