💨 Abstract

The Indian rice industry has appealed to the government for incentives and policy support in the upcoming Union Budget to address surplus stock, falling prices, and sluggish exports. The industry also demands modern rural infrastructure development, particularly irrigation and cold storage facilities. The bumper rice surplus has led to a price decline of 10-15%, and exports are significantly lower than last year.
