Roaring Food Prices in India

Soumyatanu Mukherjee

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: In this paper, we try to analyze the possible reasons behind food price hike. The motivation of doing this project is to see the probable reasons, which impact “common people” of India to the utmost extent. We concentrate mainly on the supply side, distribution aspects and the demand side. Checking these aspects we try to see their sensitivity in food prices.
