[amp_mcq option1=”Rice” option2=”Maize” option3=”Pulses” option4=”Fruits and vegetables” correct=”option1″]<\/p>\n

The correct answer is: a) Rice.<\/p>\n

The National Food Security Mission (NFSM) is a centrally sponsored scheme launched by the Government of India in 2007 to increase food production in the country. The scheme focuses on increasing production of rice, wheat, pulses, and coarse cereals. In Manipur, the NFSM aims to increase rice production by 20% by 2022. The scheme is being implemented through the state government’s Department of Agriculture.<\/p>\n

Rice is the staple food of Manipur and is grown in all parts of the state. The state is the second largest producer of rice in the North-East after Assam. The main rice varieties grown in Manipur are Boro, Aus, and Aman. The state has a rice production potential of 1.5 million tonnes.<\/p>\n

The NFSM is providing financial assistance to farmers for the cultivation of rice. The scheme is also providing subsidies for the purchase of seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides. The scheme is also providing training to farmers on modern agricultural practices.<\/p>\n

The NFSM is expected to increase rice production in Manipur and improve the livelihood of farmers. The scheme is also expected to reduce the state’s dependence on food imports.<\/p>\n

The other options are incorrect because they are not the focus of the NFSM in Manipur. Maize, pulses, and fruits and vegetables are also important crops in Manipur, but they are not the focus of the NFSM.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
