<em>Arun Jaitley has reiterated the government&rsquo;s resolve to help farmers double their income in another four years.<br />
</em><br />
Keeping
in view the problems faced by farm families, who comprise over 60 per
cent of our population, the finance minister Arun Jaitley has reiterated
the government&rsquo;s resolve to help farmers double their income in another
four years.<br />
<br />
The various measures suggested for doubling income
include distribution of soil health cards, promotion of more crop per
drop, increase in availability of credit, improved post-harvest
processing and value addition and market reform.<br />
<br />
In all these
cases, what is important is to attend to the principal need. For
example, in the case of soil health card, the most urgent requirement of
our soils is an increase in organic matter.<br />
<br />
The more crop per
drop approach needs also to be introduced in peri-urban horticulture.
Improvement of income of small farmers will require concurrent attention
in productivity increase, prevention of post-harvest losses, value
addition to primary products and above all, a farmer centric pricing
policy.<br />
<br />
In the area of pricing, it is high time that the
recommendation of the National Commission on Farmers (NCF) to provide a
minimum support price of C2 (i.e. total cost of production) plus 50 per
cent, is implemented. This has been the demand of farmers all over the
country.<br />
<br />
The proposal for developing a model law for contract
farming is a good one. What is important is the use of contract farming
as a method of providing scale to small producers as well as improved
post-harvest technology and marketing. Contract farming should not be
exploitative but should be based on the principle of win-win for both
farmers and the contractors.<br />

<em>Arun Jaitley has reiterated the government&rsquo;s resolve to help farmers double their income in another four years.<br />
</em><br />
Keeping
in view the problems faced by farm families, who comprise over 60 per
cent of our population, the finance minister Arun Jaitley has reiterated
the government&rsquo;s resolve to help farmers double their income in another
four years.<br />
<br />
The various measures suggested for doubling income
include distribution of soil health cards, promotion of more crop per
drop, increase in availability of credit, improved post-harvest
processing and value addition and market reform.<br />
<br />
In all these
cases, what is important is to attend to the principal need. For
example, in the case of soil health card, the most urgent requirement of
our soils is an increase in organic matter.<br />
<br />
The more crop per
drop approach needs also to be introduced in peri-urban horticulture.
Improvement of income of small farmers will require concurrent attention
in productivity increase, prevention of post-harvest losses, value
addition to primary products and above all, a farmer centric pricing
policy.<br />
<br />
In the area of pricing, it is high time that the
recommendation of the National Commission on Farmers (NCF) to provide a
minimum support price of C2 (i.e. total cost of production) plus 50 per
cent, is implemented. This has been the demand of farmers all over the
country.<br />
<br />
The proposal for developing a model law for contract
farming is a good one. What is important is the use of contract farming
as a method of providing scale to small producers as well as improved
post-harvest technology and marketing. Contract farming should not be
exploitative but should be based on the principle of win-win for both
farmers and the contractors.<br />

<em>Arun Jaitley has reiterated the government&rsquo;s resolve to help farmers double their income in another four years.<br />
</em><br />
Keeping
in view the problems faced by farm families, who comprise over 60 per
cent of our population, the finance minister Arun Jaitley has reiterated
the government&rsquo;s resolve to help farmers double their income in another
four years.<br />
<br />
The various measures suggested for doubling income
include distribution of soil health cards, promotion of more crop per
drop, increase in availability of credit, improved post-harvest
processing and value addition and market reform.<br />
<br />
In all these
cases, what is important is to attend to the principal need. For
example, in the case of soil health card, the most urgent requirement of
our soils is an increase in organic matter.<br />
<br />
The more crop per
drop approach needs also to be introduced in peri-urban horticulture.
Improvement of income of small farmers will require concurrent attention
in productivity increase, prevention of post-harvest losses, value
addition to primary products and above all, a farmer centric pricing
policy.<br />
<br />
In the area of pricing, it is high time that the
recommendation of the National Commission on Farmers (NCF) to provide a
minimum support price of C2 (i.e. total cost of production) plus 50 per
cent, is implemented. This has been the demand of farmers all over the
country.<br />
<br />
The proposal for developing a model law for contract
farming is a good one. What is important is the use of contract farming
as a method of providing scale to small producers as well as improved
post-harvest technology and marketing. Contract farming should not be
exploitative but should be based on the principle of win-win for both
farmers and the contractors.<br />

<em>Arun Jaitley has reiterated the government’s resolve to help farmers double their income in another four years.<br />
</em><br />
Keeping
in view the problems faced by farm families, who comprise over 60 per
cent of our population, the finance minister Arun Jaitley has reiterated
the government’s resolve to help farmers double their income in another
four years.<br />
<br />
The various measures suggested for doubling income
include distribution of soil health cards, promotion of more crop per
drop, increase in availability of credit, improved post-harvest
processing and value addition and market reform.<br />
<br />
In all these
cases, what is important is to attend to the principal need. For
example, in the case of soil health card, the most urgent requirement of
our soils is an increase in organic matter.<br />
<br />
The more crop per
drop approach needs also to be introduced in peri-urban horticulture.
Improvement of income of small farmers will require concurrent attention
in productivity increase, prevention of post-harvest losses, value
addition to primary products and above all, a farmer centric pricing
policy.<br />
<br />
In the area of pricing, it is high time that the
recommendation of the National Commission on Farmers (NCF) to provide a
minimum support price of C2 (i.e. total cost of production) plus 50 per
cent, is implemented. This has been the demand of farmers all over the
country.<br />
<br />
The proposal for developing a model law for contract
farming is a good one. What is important is the use of contract farming
as a method of providing scale to small producers as well as improved
post-harvest technology and marketing. Contract farming should not be
exploitative but should be based on the principle of win-win for both
farmers and the contractors.<br />
