The G7 was informed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi that India’s experience in agriculture could be used to maintain food security. He also urged the group to secure regular fertilizer deliveries, which have been hampered by the conflict in Ukraine. He demanded that the war be ended via discussion, pointing out that it had an international influence.

Can the G7 provide a formal framework for the extensive use of Indian agricultural skills in its member nations? The Prime Minister made the comment on Monday during a discussion on food security that was conducted in conjunction with the G7 conference in Germany. “Food security for G7 nations would be maintained with the assistance of traditional farming ability of Indian farmers.”

Modi reaffirmed that dialogue was the best course of action for putting a stop to the conflict in Ukraine. “There is a lot of stress in the world right now,” he remarked. “India has consistently supported world peace. We have consistently advocated for the road of negotiation and diplomacy, even in the current circumstance. This geopolitical tension has an effect beyond of Europe. All nations are being impacted by the global increase in energy and food grain costs. Particularly in danger are the energy and security of emerging nations.”

He proposed that the G7 create a formal framework for utilizing India’s agricultural expertise. He requested the G7’s assistance in maintaining the fertilizer supply chain’s efficiency. He stated, “We are attempting to expand fertilizer output in India and seek collaboration from G7-countries in this area.

When compared to the G7 nations, Modi said, India had a massive agricultural labor force. According to him, classic agricultural goods like cheese and olives have received a fresh lease of life because of Indian agricultural capabilities in several of the G7 nations.
