Production, 2025-26. Each square is one state or union territory — equal squares, so a small state is as visible as a large one.

What is wrong with this data (13)
  • Units differ from the horticulture store: AREA IS IN LAKH HECTARES, PRODUCTION IN LAKH TONNES, YIELD IN KG PER HECTARE. The measure keys name their unit so a mix-up cannot pass silently.
  • Columns named Cereals, Nutri/Coarse Cereals, Shree Anna /Nutri Cereals, Small Millets, Other Pulses, Total Food Grains and Total Pulses are AGGREGATES of other rows, not crops. They would double-count if summed.
  • A figure absent in the source is absent, not zero. The source writes '@' and '$' for not-available and those are read as null.
  • This release covers FOODGRAINS only — cereals and pulses. No oilseeds, cotton or sugarcane.
  • These are the NATIONAL figures and are the only correct denominator for a district's or state's share of India.
  • Cotton, jute and mesta are EXCLUDED from this file. The source reports them in lakh bales (cotton 170 kg/bale, jute and mesta 180 kg/bale) while every other figure here is lakh tonnes, and one file declares one unit. They need their own dataset.
  • '@' and '$' in the source mean 'included in Rabi' and 'included in Kharif' respectively — the season split is not separately published, though the crop total is.
  • UNITS ARE LAKH, NOT '000, and differ from the horticulture store: area in lakh hectares, production in lakh tonnes, yield in kg per hectare. The measure keys name their unit so a mix-up cannot pass silently.
  • FIBRE PRODUCTION IS IN BALES, and a bale is not one weight: cotton 170 kg, jute/mesta/sannhemp 180 kg. They share the source's single 'Production' column; the measure key carries the weight so the two can never be summed together or read as tonnes.
  • 2025-26 is the 3rd Advance Estimate, not Final. It is recorded per period and must never be quoted as a settled figure.
  • Rows named Cereals, Jute & Mesta, Nutri/Coarse Cereals, Other Pulses, Shree Anna /Nutri Cereals, Small Millets, Total Food Grains, Total Oil Seeds, Total Pulses are AGGREGATES of other rows, not crops. They would double-count if summed.
  • 'Others' here is the remainder the release has not broken out — the COMPLEMENT of the named states, not a duplicate of them. It never appears beside a named union territory, and including it reconciles 88 of 89 crop-seasons to the all-India figure. It is still never printed as a place.
  • A figure absent in the source is absent, not zero: the export writes an empty cell for missing and a literal 0.00 for a real zero, and the two are never conflated.
