The government is confident of doubling farmers’ income by 2022, says Modi

New Delhi:
Indian farmers are taking to new and scientific methods of cultivation by adopting organic and solar powered farming, while the government has formulated an agriculture export policy to prepare farmers for the international market, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said in his Independence Day speech on Wednesday.

“Despite apprehensions of many, we have set a goal to double farmer incomes by 2022,” Modi said, adding, “We will achieve this target with our focus to help farmers with better seeds and markets, and value addition of farm produce.”

Indian farmers are purchasing a record number of tractors, and adopting improved methods like drip and sprinklers for irrigating their fields, Modi said.

Commenting on what he called the policy paralysis in previous governments, Modi said that for years economists and farmer organizations had discussed how to ensure remunerative prices for crops but it was his government which took the decision to set crop support prices at 50% over the cost of production.
