Explain.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nPDS or Public Distribution System distribute the food grains by the help of ration shops among the poorer sections of the society.<\/p>\n<p>Ration shops, also known as Fair Price Shops, keep the stock of foodgrains, sugar and kerosene oil for cooking. These items are sold to people at a price lower than the market price. Any family with a ration card can buy a stipulated amount of these items (e.g., 35 kg of grains, 5 litres of kerosene, 5 kgs of sugar, etc.) every month from the nearby ration shop. PDS keeps on revising the prices in favour of urban poors.<\/p>\n<p>Question 12.<br \/>\nWhat is the Public Distribution System? What are the objectives of PDS?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe Food Corporation of India (FCI) procures food at pre-announced prices. The government distributes food grains to the poorer strata of the society through ration shops at subsidised prices fixed by the government. This is called the Public Distribution System.<br \/>\nThe objectives of the PDS are :<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>To provide essential goods at subsidised prices to the consumers.<\/li>\n<li>To control prices of essential commodities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Question 13.<br \/>\nWhat do you know about Poverty Alleviation Programmes?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nOver the years, several new programmes have been launched and some have been restructured with the growing experience of administering the programmes. At present, there are several Poverty Alleviation Programmes (PAPs), mostly in rural areas, which have an explicit food component also. While some of the programmes such as PDS, mid-day meals, etc. are exclusively food security programmes, most of the PAPs also enhance food security. Employment programmes greatly contribute to food security by increasing the income of the poor.<\/p>\n<p>Question 14.<br \/>\nWhat do you mean by hunger? What are the different dimensions of hunger?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nHunger is one of the aspects that indicate food insecurity. Hunger is not just an expression of poverty, it brings about poverty. The attainment of food security therefore involves eliminating current hunger and reducing the risks of future hunger.<br \/>\nThere are two dimensions of hunger chronic hunger and seasonal hunger.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Chronic hunger is a consequence of diets persistently inadequate in terms of quantity and\/or quality.<\/li>\n<li>Seasonal hunger is related to cycles of food growing and harvesting.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Question 15.<br \/>\nWhat are the consequences of the excessive reserves of foodgrains in India?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe consequences of excessive reserves of foodgrains in India are as follows :<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>There is wastage and deterioration in grain quality.<\/li>\n<li>Excess reserves have led to high carrying costs.<\/li>\n<li>It has led to the decline in the quantity of foodgrains available to the consumers in the market.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Question 16.<br \/>\nWhich groups are the worst affected by food security in India?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe worst affected groups are landless people with little or no land to depend upon, traditional artisans, providers of traditional services, petty self-employed workers and destitutes including beggars.<\/p>\n<p>In the urban areas, the food insecure families are those whose working members are generally employed in ill-paid occupations and casual labour market.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Food_Security_in_India_Class_9_Extra_Questions_Long_Answer_Type_Questions\"><\/span>Food Security in India Class 9 Extra Questions Long Answer Type Questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Question 1.<br \/>\n\u201cIndia is aiming at Self-sufficiency in Foodgrains since Independence.\u201d Elaborate.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nAfter Independence, many measures were adopted to achieve self-sufficiency in food grains. India adopted a new strategy in agriculture, which resulted in \u2018Green Revolution\u2019, to increase the production of wheat and rice.<\/p>\n<p>The highest rate of growth was achieved in Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh, which was 44.01 and 30.21 million tonnes in 2015-16. The total foodgrain production was 252.22 million tonnes in 2015-16.<\/p>\n<p>Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh recorded a significant production in field of wheat which was 26.87 and 17.69 million tonnes in 2015-16, respectively. West Bengal and UB on the other hand, recorded significant production of rice which was 15.75 and 12.51 million tonnes in 2015-16 respectively.<\/p>\n<p>India has become self-sufficient in foodgrains during the last 30 years because of a variety of crops grown all over the country. The availability of foodgrains (even in adverse weather conditions or otherwise) at the country level has been ensured further with a carefully designed food security system by the government.<\/p>\n<p>Question 2.<br \/>\nDiscuss the role of Indian government in food security.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe role of Indian government in food security are :<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The Government of India gave the responsibility for procuring and stocking of foodgrains to FCI and for distribution the responsibility is given to the Public Distribution System (PDS).<\/li>\n<li>The government is committed to announce a minimum support price for wheat and paddy and of quantities that could not fetch even such minimum prices in the market. The resultant stocks were to be utilized for maintaining distribution through the PDS and a portion of these were used to create and maintain buffer stocks. In fact, if stocks happened to be inadequate for maintaining a certain level of distribution through PDS, the government had to resort to imports to honour its charge to PDS consumers. The FCI procures foodgrains from the farmers at the government announced Minimum Support Price (MSP).<\/li>\n<li>Farmers are provided subsidies on agriculture inputs such as fertilizers, power and water.<\/li>\n<li>The biggest achievement of the Indian food policy, and operational stock holding has been the avoidance of famine-like conditions.<\/li>\n<li>It was with the basic objective of curbing consumption and ensuring an equitable distribution of available food supplies, especially in the deficit areas and among the poorer strata of society.<\/li>\n<li>The Government of India has introduced the scheme of minimum assured price of foodgrains which are announced well before the commencement of the crop seasons, after taking into account the cost of production \/ inter-crop price parity, market prices and other relevant factors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Food Security in India Class 9 Extra Questions Social Science Economics Chapter 4 Extra Questions for Class 9 Social Science [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_yoast_wpseo_focuskw":"","_yoast_wpseo_title":"","_yoast_wpseo_metadesc":"\"Get Food Security in India Class 9 Extra Questions Economics Chapter 4 on Infinity Learn.\"","custom_permalink":"question\/clss-9\/economics\/food-security-in-india-class-9-extra-questions-economics-chapter-4\/"},"categories":[93,117,21],"tags":[],"table_tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.9 -
