India’s agricultural sector demonstrates resilience and targeted government support, evidenced by record milk production reaching 25 crore tonnes and robust MSP procurement of pulses and oilseeds totaling ₹5,547.99 crore. While floods in Bihar have impacted banana and maize crops affecting millions, the government is providing immediate financial assistance and committing to full support through disaster relief funds. Initiatives like White Revolution 2.0 and the 'Khet Bachao Abhiyan' campaign, alongside increased focus on state reviews and stricter input quality control, signal a continued emphasis on bolstering agricultural self-reliance and sustaining the sector’s growth momentum, which has already seen a rise to 4.5% since 2015.
