Farmers have wholeheartedly voted for the PM twice; it is the time he reciprocated the feelings and returned the favour. Every season has an end for a harvest to begin.

April is upon us; the Indian summer will soon sear the land and wheat harvest will commence in full measure in Punjab & Haryana, while it has already begun in other parts of the country. Other than that, we do not yet know what will come next. As wheat is procured under the central government’s MSP program, the onus lies with the government to assuage the unease of the states and the farmers that harvest will beginon time, procurement will happen, stocks will be lifted and payments received as in the years past. A delay in harvesting or lifting of food stocks in the mandi also amplifies farmers’ risk of produce being damaged due to anticipated unseasonal rains. In case the process is delayed, the government must assure farmers it will, if required compensate and extend the wheat procurement season.
