520			_aA remarkable aspect of Indian agricultural development over the last 20 years is that it has allowed this large and crowded subcontinent to break away from chronic dependency on food imports and to attain self-sufficiency in foodgrains. Compared to the performance of virtually all other Third World countries that have fallen into increasing food dependency, this is no small achievement. Food self-sufficiency has been reached without satisfying their food needs. Key to this problem is the level of real income of the poorest, which in turn, is determined mainly by the level at which food prices are set.
