Breaking News-RTRS - Rapeseed output jump in key Indian state may cut vegoil imports

NEW DELHI, Oct 8 (Reuters) - Rapeseed output in India's top producing state is likely to jump 45 percent this year, cutting cooking oil import needs by at least 5 percent for the world's top buyer in 2010/11, farm and trade officials said on Friday.
The area under cultivation for rapeseed, the main winter-sown oilseed, is likely rise as good monsoon rains give the soil moisture, improving output from last year when the worst drought in nearly four decades ravaged farms.
