Extract

Wherever the opium poppy is cultivated its seed forms a valuable secondary crop. India has a bigger outturn of seed than any other country. In the years immediately preceding the war the bulk of the poppy seed produced in India was exported. The following Table gives an idea of the proportion of the total production exported for a number of years past.
