‘’IF AGRICULTURE GOES WRONG, NOTHING ELSE WILL HAVE A CHANCE TO GO RIGHT IN THE COUNTRY’’ –M.S Swaminathan
National Farmer’s Day is observed every year on December 23 nationwide with great enthusiasm to praise the farmer’s as they are the spine of India. The day also embarks the birth anniversary of Indian Farmer’s leader and the former Prime Minister of India, Chaudhary Charan Singh.
Farmer’s are the backbone of society and majorly contribute to the economic development of India. They are the one’s who work around the clock and the year to ensure that people don’t strave and die of hunger but they themselves struggle for 2 square meals a day.
India is a land of villages in which the majority of the population is farmers having agriculture as their main source of income. However, despite being the most prominent means of life for so many people, not many are aware of the problem that farmer’s face. A farmer works very hard day and night to provide the livestock. The agriculture in India is still in dredful state despite several policies, technologies, and improvements. Every year the farmers have to fight against the natural crises such as drought, floods etc.. The alarming increasing suicide rate among farmers caused a severe concern upon agricultural development and its sustainability in the country.
‘’IN YOUR LIFE YOU NEED A DOCTOR, A LAWYER, A POLICEMAN AND A PREACHER BUT EVERY DAY, THREE TIMES A DAY, YOU NEED A FARMER’’.
For decades, millions of India’s small and marginal farmers have been living in abject poverty due to uncountable number of problems that exist in the country’s tightly controlled agriculture sector. Years of unfulfilled promises on the minimum support price(MSP) mechanism, over-interference of middlemen and weak agricultural sector growth and pushed the country’s poorest farmer’s into a pool of debt, forcing many to take own lives.
