worth 44000 crore food wasted every year in INDIA

Despite millions of Indians going to bed on a hungry stomach, the country is letting  food worth a whopping Rs 44,000 crore go waste each year due to lack of adequate  storage infrastructure. 

India produces around 250 million tonne of food grain in a year, but its annual consumption remains far lower at 220 million to 225 million tonne. The country has failed to take advantage of the higher production levels as it is reported that more than 250 million people go to bed hungry each day. 

It is very bad system to safe our food grain in india, Govt. should think about it as early to save our resources.
