This was due to deficient rainfall and drought conditions in the country. Even so, rice is the most cultivated crop in India. India is the world's second-largest producer of rice, behind China. Rice was cultivated on an area of around 32.5 million hectares during the fiscal year 2002-2003.

Wheat: This is the second most important cereal crop. It is the main food crop, in north and north-western part of the country.
