Studies on Dynamics of Post-Kharif Rice Fallows Using Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Techniques in India
Abstract: India has largely become self-sufficient in food grain production at macro level. However, the mismatch between the demand and supply, imbalance in food grain components, declining growth rate of food grain yields especially in cereals, pulses, oilseeds, rice, and wheat in the last decade add to the woes of malnutrition and food security problems. The rice, wheat and pulse crops constitute the main components of food security mission. Optimal utilization …
