(a) With Indian population reaching 1.3 billions by the end of 2018, we will require about 240 million tonnes of grains production every year. In order to produce such an enormous amout of grains, we need extra land for cultivation which is beyond our scope as it is surely going to create ecological disturbances. Therefore, it is essential to wisely use the available food resources.
(b) We can use following methods to ensure food security :
• Development of disease resistant, high yielding crop varieties having low maturity durations.
• By improving production management
• Crop protection management
