from 1.8 million hectares during 1964–65 to 3.6 million hectares during 2016–17.
As the improved and disease resistant varieties got popularised through frontline
demonstrations in these western states, there was a significant increase in production
and yield.
6.1.5 Central Zone
The Central Zone includes Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh although area, production and yield data for Chhattisgarh is available only in post 2000, after reorganisation
