Note : 1. mmt = million metric ton. 2. mn = million number.
3. The deficit in meat is calculated assuming all meat coming from livestock sources. Assuming 50% animal protein
to be supplied by the fishery sector, the net deficit in meat comes down to 78.94%.
4. Population in 1991 = 108 million.
5. Total requirements for meat and eggs are calculated making a deduction of 10% and 20% respectively from total population.
