Based on preliminary estimate of summer and winter crop for year 2012.13, the area and production share of important cereals in Nepal is shown. Crop like paddy covers less area but share more on production, whereas all other cereals covers more area but shares less in total production. The most deviation in area and production share was found in case of paddy followed by millet, but nature of deviation is exactly opposite in these two crops. Here, a common understanding about Green Revolution is proved. I mean, green revolution was quiet biased to some major crops like paddy and productivity is found to have increased much in paddy. Whereas , millet didn't get any privileged or say attention from green revolution, that's why its productivity is still pathetic. Very interestingly, the productivity of millet is same as it was 50 years back in Nepal.
