Economic and Political WeeklySummary: Summarising the data relevant to the understanding of food production across the country unearths the lack of coordination between the ministries. This has resulted in the replication of efforts and inconsistencies in reported values for key indicators. Various other factors, including, for example, reporting in PDF format, frequent changes in district boundaries, missing data, and time lags in reporting, further hinder their utilisation. A standardised data collection protocol could be developed and overseen by a central, inter-ministerial Agri-Food System Data Governance Steering Committee. The establishment of such a committee would help ensure data-driven, evidence-based policymaking towards a nutrition-secure India. – Reproduced
