The FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization) coin series began globally in 1968 as a United Nations initiative to raise awareness of food production — India participated extensively, issuing numerous rupee denominations through the 1970s and 1980s bearing agricultural themes. By 1990, the program had long lost its novelty, and this issue sits among the later, less publicized entries in India's FAO run rather than the earlier flagship pieces that drew collector attention at the time of issue.
