520 _aWhile agricultural production has increased in selected crops and in some regions in India, environmental issues like salinity, water logging, leaching of soil, and contamination of rivers have become serious in these regions. Food preferences have been distorted in a way detrimental to health and nutrition with problems like diabetes becoming endemic.
