National Food Security Mission (NFSM) is a Centrally Sponsored Scheme launched in 2007 based on the recommendations of the agriculture sub- committee of National Development Council (NDC). During the eleventh plan period, the mission achieved increase in production of food grains by 20 million MT; covering rice, wheat and pulses. The scheme was continued during the twelfth five year plan (2012-17) with a target of 25 million MT of increased food grain production. Subsequently, coarse cereals and commercial crops were included under the purview of NFSM. NFSM is currently being implemented across 638 districts in the country.
