India’s Basmati rice exports are booming, but global conflicts, strict EU regulations, and climate challenges are reshaping the industry. In this episode of Farm Matters, veteran journalist Vivian Fernandes speaks with Padma Shri awardee Dr. Ashok Kumar Singh, former Director of the Indian Agricultural Research Institute, about the science and economics behind Basmati rice.
Dr. Singh, popularly known as 'Basmati King', discusses the development of blockbuster varieties like Pusa Basmati 1509, the challenges of pesticide residue rules in the European Union, the impact of West Asia conflicts on exports, and how new technologies like AI and speed breeding are transforming crop research.From improving yields and disease resistance to the future of India’s Rs 50,000 crore Basmati export market, this conversation explores where the sector is headed.
