The article discusses the food security dimension facing India and tries to look at the Arctic emerging as a future agriculture hot spot as the agriculture expands northwards due to climate change. In the recent years India has been trying to make a way into the Arctic, primarily to counter the growing Chinese influence.

This is a very strong concern in the Indian thinking circles because it enables China to bypass the Indian security architecture in the Indian ocean region. But We have all the reasons to look at all the possible areas that Arctic may open for India in the future. One such area as spelled out in the latest Arctic policy released by Government of India on 17th March 2022 is the scope of scientific cooperation.
