What are the causes for for unequal distribution of food production and consumption in India in terms of quality and quantity?
Food produced in India differs in different regions. As a result, Indians consume food available in their regions. eg. people living in west Bengal consume fish and rice, while people living in Punjab consume bajra and wheat. Thus, it depends on the cultivation of crops in different regions. If a Punjabi living in Punjab wanted to eat rice, it would cost him more than it would for a Punjabi living in west Bengal. Distribution in food also depends on the purchasing power of the people. Richer the people, more and better quality of food they can consume while poor people survive on a meagre diet. India is a mixed economy as well as a poor and developing country. Therefore, there are millions below the poverty line and starving to death.
