Notes: The National Mission on Oilseeds and Oil Palm (NMOOP) was launched in 2014-15 to boost oilseed production in India. The National Mission on Edible Oil-Oil Palm (NMEO-OP) aims to enhance self-reliance in edible oil, with a focus on northeast India and the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. While NMOOP emphasized irrigation and crop diversification, NMEO-OP will implement a viability pricing mechanism, set at 14.3% of the average crude palm oil price over the past five years, adjusted for WPI.
