El Niño disrupts India's edible oil production

El Niño is causing problems for India's edible oil production.

The weather phenomenon is disrupting the monsoon, leading to less rain and higher temperatures.

This is making it hard for farmers to grow crops like soybean, groundnut, and sunflower.

These crops need a lot of rain to grow well.

Because of the bad weather, farmers are planting less, and the crops that are growing aren't doing as well.

This means India might have to import more oil, which could be expensive and make food prices go up.

Experts are suggesting ways to help, like using better irrigation and planting crops that can handle dry weather.

They also say we should use different kinds of cooking oil to stay healthy.
