&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Every day, 54, mostly developed countries give nearly $2 billion in support to their farmers&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The sites of the farmers&amp;rsquo; protests on the borders of Delhi are a microcosm of Indian peasantry &amp;mdash; rich and poor, small and big, irrigated and rainfed and supported and not supported. The voices from these sites have now merged into one clarion call: Guarantee government support to farmers by legalising the minimum support price (MSP).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Farmers want this guarantee. It would ensure that nobody in private markets dares to buy lower than the MSP.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;This has set both farmers and the government on the path of confrontation. In fact, states ruled by parties other than the Bharatiya Janata Party have started enacting laws to make MSP mandatory for non-government procurement or purchases.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has added to the debate over the criticality of government support to farmers; particularly when they have delivered bumper harvests. The market is not that favourable since consumption to some extent has reduced as people have less income to spare.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;R Ramakumar, professor at the Centre for Study of Developing Economies, School of Development Studies, Tata Institute of Social Science, said:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; The COVID-19 pandemic has made government support more urgent, important and pervasive across the world. Agriculture and food security will remain a priority and as a result, the support to agriculture is unlikely to fall or reduce. In some cases, it may even rise.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Some 35 countries and the European Union (EU) have declared financial support schemes for farmers to face the COVID-19 pandemic. This is according to the annual Agricultural Policy Monitoring and Evaluation, 2020 by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) that covers 54 countries.&lt;/p&gt;

<p style="text-align:justify"><em>Every day, 54, mostly developed countries give nearly $2 billion in support to their farmers</em></p>

<p style="text-align:justify">The sites of the farmers&rsquo; protests on the borders of Delhi are a microcosm of Indian peasantry &mdash; rich and poor, small and big, irrigated and rainfed and supported and not supported. The voices from these sites have now merged into one clarion call: Guarantee government support to farmers by legalising the minimum support price (MSP).</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Farmers want this guarantee. It would ensure that nobody in private markets dares to buy lower than the MSP.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">This has set both farmers and the government on the path of confrontation. In fact, states ruled by parties other than the Bharatiya Janata Party have started enacting laws to make MSP mandatory for non-government procurement or purchases.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has added to the debate over the criticality of government support to farmers; particularly when they have delivered bumper harvests. The market is not that favourable since consumption to some extent has reduced as people have less income to spare.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">R Ramakumar, professor at the Centre for Study of Developing Economies, School of Development Studies, Tata Institute of Social Science, said:</p>

<p style="text-align:justify"><em>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The COVID-19 pandemic has made government support more urgent, important and pervasive across the world. Agriculture and food security will remain a priority and as a result, the support to agriculture is unlikely to fall or reduce. In some cases, it may even rise.</em></p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Some 35 countries and the European Union (EU) have declared financial support schemes for farmers to face the COVID-19 pandemic. This is according to the annual Agricultural Policy Monitoring and Evaluation, 2020 by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) that covers 54 countries.</p>

Amid protests over agri laws let's look at how some countries support farmers -Richard Mahapatra

-Down to Earth Every day, 54, mostly developed countries give nearly $2 billion in support to their farmers The sites of the farmers’ protests on the borders of Delhi are a microcosm of Indian peasantry — rich and poor, small and big, irrigated and rainfed and supported and not supported.
