Food Adviser Ali Imam Majumder reported that the country's food situation is currently very satisfactory, with a stockpile of 1.5 million tons—300,000 tons more than the previous year. He noted that food reserves are in constant flux due to ongoing consumption and replenishment. "If the upcoming Aman harvest is successful, we may not need to import rice this year," he stated. Last year, significant imports were necessary, but strong Boro yields this season offer hope for self-sufficiency.
