INDIA

India is the world's second most populous country and one of the largest producers of grains and oilseeds. It is also the world's second largest consumer of vegoils. In recent years, India's production of foodgrains has met or exceeded its domestic consumption needs, except for wheat whose production has generally not kept up with consumption. Nevertheless, India continues to be a player in the highly competitive export wheat market. India is also Canada's most important export market for pulse and special crops. This issue of the Bi-weekly Bulletin examines the situation and outlook for India's grains and oilseeds sectors and explores the implications for Canada's agriculture and agri-food industry.
