STAPLE FOOD CROPS

A. Cereal Crops

Note: Even if the figures for different years read the same, such as 1, 1, … or 2, 2, …, the growth rates need necessarily not be ‘O’. This is because of rounding of the figures, such as values ranging from 500 to 1,499 tons will appear as ‘1’. But, for the purpose of calculation of growth rate, the actual values have been used.
