Show notes

S1 E14 In the 1960s India was unable to produce enough wheat and rice to feed its people. Today India exports both. Is this a success story? Or are we trapped by the past? In this week's episode of Building Blocks of the Indian Economy we look at food production in India. You may be surprised to know the "food" we produce most of today. History Buffs, do check out the book The Licence Raj: An Economic Comedy of Errors https://www.amazon.in/dp/B0876M8HYV/ Email: [email protected]
