India is a food surplus nation now. We produce much more food than what is needed to feed our population. India exports 40 billion dollars worth of agricultural produce every year.
Ensuring food security in India requires solving the distribution and affordability problems, as well as the nutritional adequacy (hidden hunger) problem. The food security problem in India is no longer the result of inadequate food production.
