India is likely to produce a record 273.38 million tonnes of food grains
2016/17, slightly higher than the previous estimate of 271.98 million
tonnes, farm ministry said in a statement, as ample monsoon rains
boosted crop yields.
The south Asian nation is likely to produce a record 97.44 million
tonnes of wheat, higher than a previous forecast of 96.64 million
tonnes, the statement said.
India's rice production is estimated at 109.15 million tonnes, while pulses output is pegged at 22.40 million tonnes.
