Super
Kernel Basmati Rice is king of all rice Varieties in the world, grown in the
fertile land of Punjab and irrigation water comes from foothills of the
Himalayas and Kashmir through Indus River. In so notifying the WTO of its
intention to modify the import duty mechanism, the Commission indicated its
intention to negotiate with the main supplier countries of rice some form of
‘proportionate compensation' for abandoning the ‘import duty setting mechanism'
inherent in Head Note 7 of the WTO Schedule.
First time highest production of rice of 5.2 million tones was achieved during the year 1999. Due to acute shortage of water and prolonged drought conditions, rice production reduced to 3.8 million tones during 2001. Later on, the production trend has increased up to 5.6 million tones since 2005. During 2008-09, rice was planted approximately on 2.96 million hectares with highest ever 6.95 million tons production. This was achieved due to combined efforts of rice research and development, favourable environmental conditions, high prices of paddy and good economic return to farmers.
