Abstract

India has made impressive progress in overcoming the threat of famine that plagued its history. India faced serious food shortages in the first few decades of independence'. Since independence in 1947, however, concentrated investment in agricultural production and rural infrastructure has quadrupled the production of rice and wheat, and India has become self-sufficient in basic food production with rapid transport of food grains to areas facing shortages under the Public Food Distribution System (PDS).
