National Food Security Mission

The National Food Security Mission (NFSM) is a government initiative in India aimed at boosting the production of key crops like rice, wheat, pulses, and oilseeds. Its goal is to improve self-sufficiency, ensure stable food supplies, and reduce imports. The program provides farmers with better seeds, technology, and support to increase yields, especially in regions facing low productivity. By promoting sustainable farming practices, NFSM helps improve farmers' income, enhances food security for the nation, and supports rural development.
