farm land diverting to bio diesel, ethanol from sugar cane, corn and other fuels.

indonesia mixing palm oil in petrol, diesel due to high crude oil prices. it will create shortage in palm oil importing countries like india .

india should discourage sugarcane cultivation and encourage palm oil, oil seeds like sun flowers, pulses like black gram, green gram. since 2015 nda government imported oil seeds, pulses, palm oil to control prices. farmers felt the msp or market prices offered for these crops are not enough to recover costs of cultivation and stopped growing these crops.

We have more sugar production than consumption. Government planning to divert excess to ethanol production.

Paddy and Sugarcane cultivation requires more than 10 times water when compared to other crops. 

We should be self sufficient in all kind of food such as pulses, oil seeds, fruits, vegetables, rice, sugar, wheat. Currently we have excess sugar, wheat, rice production. boiled rice in fci godowns sufficient for 5 years. We have deficit in pulses, oil seeds, soyabeen, corn. If we divert part of land from paddy, sugarcane cultivation to other crops we can achieve self-sufficiency in all kind of foods. Overpopulated country like India shouldn't depends on others for necessary food items.

In rabi (December to may) season rains are less . June to November is good for paddy, December to February good for corn, march to may is good for pulses like black gram, green gram . If we cultivate crops other than paddy during rabi season we can save lot of ground water, electricity.

Palm oil is used in most of the FMCG products including soaps and not just cooking oil. We need to bring more land under palm oil production which is good for country and our farmers.

Even we are thinking of changing from eucalyptus to palm oil after 3-4 years.

Basically it increases greenary and more profitable than paddy.

Don't ever think only profit is the ultimate motive in agriculture.....preserving soil and local ,flora and fauna is an important aspect in long run..... palm oil cultivation damages the soil....similarly people became too profit oriented for gains in paddy for both kharif and rabi ..legumes are much important for the restoration of fertility....now days people are thinking about quantity...but If we are able to replace at least half of rice and sugarcane fields with millets , castor ,sesame and peanuts, chick peas  we can save lot of water and infact give drinking water to almost every village with out any issue.. similarly aqua culture has made ground water unpottable in many Krishna and godvari district villages ...palm oil is GMO and one of the major cancer causing thing on the planet .....

Palm oil is being used by industries for packaged food and medicines, detergents and cosmetics. 

Many people don't use it for cooking. We also use it only for cooking snacks.  

No you are wrong most poor  people use it for regular consumption.....

Propaganda of soy, rape seed and sunflower oil exporters. 

Palm oil pedda hole pettindi on western countries exports.

India spends 60,000 crores a year on edible oil imports. The west wants all of it.

Palm Oil is not GMO. Soy and sunflower are GMO in most countries.

No western company has any kind of IP rights on palm oil. Farmers dont need to buy seeds annually. Oil palm is one of the least demanding crops in terms of pesticides. While soy and sunflower are coated and pasted with insecticides right from the seed stage. Western crop care companies cant make profits off of oil palm farmers. They hate it.

To top it all off, oil palm is profitable only in humid tropical zones. The west is out of luck here. Dont fall for the hate propaganda.

Government of India has had a Oil Palm Research Centre in west godavari (Pedavegi) since the nineties. Research is slow since it is a long gestation crop, but they have been doing their best.

Farmers did not co-operate with GoI and they went for Coconut-Cocoa plantations instead.

GoI is providing subsidies for oil palm farmers for 3 years. Chandranna pasupu kumkuma ani tinesaadu, inka jagananna gurinchi cheppedi emundi le. All states same pattern.

Thanks for correcting me ...I read an agricultural article on this ....might be sponsored but that doesn't mean I support soy, sunflower,canola and corn oils ...they are worst to core ...to be honest not even any refined oil....I only support cold or expeller pressed oils and only buy the same
