Indian farmers have planted 12 million hectares with summer-sown rice, preliminary farm ministry data for this year showed, up 25% from last year as robust monsoon rains encouraged the expansion of acreage.

Buoyed by the plentiful rains, rice farmers are likely to harvest a record crop and step up overseas sales from the world’s biggest exporter of the grain.

The Ministry of Agriculture & Farmers’ Welfare issued preliminary figures for planting from June 1-July 10, which are subject to revision as it gathers more information from state governments.

Indians obsession with whiteness is further exacerbated with the cast system. People use cremes to whitened their skins because they think that white is better and that is because of the legacy of colonialism.

Hope that with those harvests none starves in India. Unlikely just like in USA & West. Wrong people have money everywhere incl China. It is wealth & it's distribution behind all misery in the world. No doubt capitalism behind inequality & starvation! Capitalism to continue!
