Rice is considered a subsistence crop in Odisha.
Rice is a major food crop and the staple crop for most of India’s population. In north Indian states like Punjab and Haryana, the cultivated rice is for commercial purposes as they have wheat as their staple food. In Odisha, cultivated rice is utilised for household use. Only the remaining quantity is commercially utilised. Hence, rice is a subsistence crop in Odisha. Most North Indian rice-producing states use advanced technologies and high-quality, high-yielding seeds. However, in Odisha, primitive farming methods are still used. The lack of fertilisers and proper irrigation is another reason for the reduced yield in Odisha, which is just enough for household use.
