PITF - The giant leap ahead

India, a land of diverse cultures and cuisines, finds itself as an immense source of food grains, cereals, vegetables, fruits, herbs and spices that play a pivotal role in the country's culinary traditions and economic prosperity. Currently India is the largest producer of spices, milk and pulses. It is the second largest producer of fruits, vegetables, wheat and rice. It is also the fourth largest producer of oilseeds in the world. India receives 2400-3000 hours of sunshine and an average rainfall of 118 cm through the year, with variations depending upon agroclimatic zones. There are 8 agroclimatic zones ranging from humid to arid and seven soil types. This diversity of natural features has led to India being a producer of a great diversity of food and cash crops.

Historical texts and archaeological evidence bear witness to the central role of many of the traditional crops in the evolution of the subcontinent's diet and culture. Oilseeds such as sesame and mustard have been mentioned in ancient scriptures, while the Ayurvedic system of medicine acknowledges the therapeutic properties of various fruits, vegetables and herbs. Chilies were introduced into India by the Portuguese in the 15th century. The potato as we all know is a native South American crop introduced to the rest of the world, including India. Hence these may not be found in ultra traditional ancient recipes but are very popular in the modern Indian cuisine...
