The National Food Security Mission (NFSM) was launched in 2007-08. It is a centrally sponsored scheme that aims to increase production of rice, wheat, pulses, and coarse cereals. The NFSM also aims to improve the nutritional status of the people, especially the vulnerable sections of the society.<\/p>\n<p>The NFSM is implemented through the Department of Agriculture, Cooperation, and Farmers&#8217; Welfare (DAC&amp;FW). The DAC&amp;FW is responsible for providing financial assistance to the states for implementing the NFSM. The states are responsible for implementing the NFSM at the field level.<\/p>\n<p>The NFSM has been successful in increasing production of food grains. The production of rice, wheat, pulses, and coarse cereals has increased significantly since the launch of the NFSM. The NFSM has also been successful in improving the nutritional status of the people. The prevalence of malnutrition has declined significantly since the launch of the NFSM.<\/p>\n<p>However, the NFSM has also faced some challenges. One of the challenges is that the NFSM has not been able to reach all the vulnerable sections of the society. Another challenge is that the NFSM has not been able to address the issue of food waste.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the challenges, the NFSM has been a successful scheme. It has helped to increase production of food grains and improve the nutritional status of the people. The NFSM is a step in the right direction towards achieving food security in India.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect.
