The last time El Nino hit the world strongly was back to back in 2014 and 2015, with the impact of the second year being stronger.India had 12% lower rains in 2014 which led to almost 5% fall in grain production in 2015 at 252 MT. Interestingly 2013 (F2014) was a record production year for agriculture with the industry producing 265mt, which led to increase in inventory buffer.
