Description
Punjab, agriculturally the most advanced state of India, also has a strong base in industry, technology, infrastructure and human resources and has historically been the state with the highest per capita income in the country.
Punjab is the leading state in agricultural production in India. The total production of foodgrain (Cereal and Pulses) in the State in the year 2001-02 was 248.98 lakh tonnes. Punjab produced 22.61% of the country's wheat (15.5 MT), 10.78 % of rice (9.1 MT) and 12.4% of cotton (1.19 thousand bales) in the year 2000-01. This was achieved despite the fact that the State has only 1.54% of India’s geographical area.
In South Asia, Punjab has paved the way for Green Revolution in agricultural production. The foodgrain production increased from 7 million tonnes in 1970 to over 24 million tonnes in 2001-02. This is one of the highest rate of growth achieved anywhere in the world.
