Kharif foodgrain 2025-26 output likely to exceed 171.39 MT target: Agri Commissioner

India's kharif foodgrain production is set to exceed the government's goal. This is due to increased cultivation and favorable monsoon rains. Agriculture Commissioner P K Singh shared this optimistic outlook. While oilseed and pulse coverage is down, productivity is expected to rise. Crop damage from floods was minimal. The government will launch Vikhist Krishi Abhiyan to support farmers soon.
