&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The farmers have to make an investment of Rs 463 billion in the next five years&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A &amp;ldquo;New India&amp;rdquo; is the latest national agenda. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in his fourth Independence Day speech, made an appeal with his trademark gesture of both hands pointing towards the gathering: &amp;ldquo;A new India that would fulfil the dreams of the young and women, and see the income of farmers double.&amp;rdquo; Doubling of farmers&amp;rsquo; income by 2022 is his two-year-old promise. But for the first time, he has added this promise to his agenda of a &amp;ldquo;New India&amp;rdquo;. At a time when farmers are found less in farms and more on streets, protesting for better produce and price, it is an invincible promise everybody would desperately pitch for.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even while many doubt the progress made in this direction, the government-appointed Committee on Doubling Farmers&amp;rsquo; Income led by Ashok Dalwai, has submitted its report. The committee has pointed out the challenges in doubling farmers&amp;rsquo; income along with the details that need to be taken into account for achieving this target. Starting from a historical background of progress in agriculture to what needs to be done, the reports carry expansive as well as specific suggestions. Going by the committee&amp;rsquo;s general observation, the target is achievable, which this magazine also recently estimated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First, the report says during 2004-2014 (a politically explosive assessment given that this period coincides with the two terms of the United Progressive Alliance) agriculture reported a historic growth rate. The agricultural growth was an impressive 4 per cent during this period in comparison to 2.6 per cent during 1995-2004. Four per cent growth is considered as the golden standard as far as agriculture is concerned. But in recent years the sector seems to be slowing down which is widely known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Second, this growth rate was possible due to better minimum support price, raised public investment and also better market price, as per the report. Third, the report says that the real income from farming, which is around 60 per cent of a farmer&amp;rsquo;s total income, has to be doubled, as per the target fixed for 2022. If achieved, this will change the ratio of a farmer&amp;rsquo;s income from farm and non-farm sources&amp;mdash;from 60:40 at present to 70:30 in 2022.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To sum up, India has finally accepted the dominance of farm income in overall well-being of farmers. The other way to look at this, is to accept that the dream of adopting non-farm income as an alternative to dwindling agriculture sector is now junked.&lt;br /&gt;

Second, this growth rate was possible due to better minimum support price, raised public investment and also better market price, as per the report. Third, the report says that the real income from farming, which is around 60 per cent of a farmer&amp;rsquo;s total income, has to be doubled, as per the target fixed for 2022. If achieved, this will change the ratio of a farmer&amp;rsquo;s income from farm and non-farm sources&amp;mdash;from 60:40 at present to 70:30 in 2022.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To sum up, India has finally accepted the dominance of farm income in overall well-being of farmers. The other way to look at this, is to accept that the dream of adopting non-farm income as an alternative to dwindling agriculture sector is now junked.&lt;br /&gt;

But for the first time, he has added this promise to his agenda of a &amp;ldquo;New India&amp;rdquo;.

The committee has pointed out the challenges in doubling farmers&amp;rsquo; income along with the details that need to be taken into account for achieving this target. Starting from a historical background of progress in agriculture to what needs to be done, the reports carry expansive as well as specific suggestions.

The agricultural growth was an impressive 4 per cent during this period in comparison to 2.6 per cent during 1995-2004. Four per cent growth is considered as the golden standard as far as agriculture is concerned. But in recent years the sector seems to be slowing down which is widely known.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Second, this growth rate was possible due to better minimum support price, raised public investment and also better market price, as per the report.

Four per cent growth is considered as the golden standard as far as agriculture is concerned. But in recent years the sector seems to be slowing down which is widely known.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Second, this growth rate was possible due to better minimum support price, raised public investment and also better market price, as per the report. Third, the report says that the real income from farming, which is around 60 per cent of a farmer&amp;rsquo;s total income, has to be doubled, as per the target fixed for 2022.

<em>The farmers have to make an investment of Rs 463 billion in the next five years<br />
</em><br />
A &ldquo;New India&rdquo; is the latest national agenda. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in his fourth Independence Day speech, made an appeal with his trademark gesture of both hands pointing towards the gathering: &ldquo;A new India that would fulfil the dreams of the young and women, and see the income of farmers double.&rdquo; Doubling of farmers&rsquo; income by 2022 is his two-year-old promise. But for the first time, he has added this promise to his agenda of a &ldquo;New India&rdquo;. At a time when farmers are found less in farms and more on streets, protesting for better produce and price, it is an invincible promise everybody would desperately pitch for.<br />
<br />
Even while many doubt the progress made in this direction, the government-appointed Committee on Doubling Farmers&rsquo; Income led by Ashok Dalwai, has submitted its report. The committee has pointed out the challenges in doubling farmers&rsquo; income along with the details that need to be taken into account for achieving this target. Starting from a historical background of progress in agriculture to what needs to be done, the reports carry expansive as well as specific suggestions. Going by the committee&rsquo;s general observation, the target is achievable, which this magazine also recently estimated.<br />
<br />
First, the report says during 2004-2014 (a politically explosive assessment given that this period coincides with the two terms of the United Progressive Alliance) agriculture reported a historic growth rate. The agricultural growth was an impressive 4 per cent during this period in comparison to 2.6 per cent during 1995-2004. Four per cent growth is considered as the golden standard as far as agriculture is concerned. But in recent years the sector seems to be slowing down which is widely known.<br />
<br />
Second, this growth rate was possible due to better minimum support price, raised public investment and also better market price, as per the report. Third, the report says that the real income from farming, which is around 60 per cent of a farmer&rsquo;s total income, has to be doubled, as per the target fixed for 2022. If achieved, this will change the ratio of a farmer&rsquo;s income from farm and non-farm sources&mdash;from 60:40 at present to 70:30 in 2022.<br />
<br />
To sum up, India has finally accepted the dominance of farm income in overall well-being of farmers. The other way to look at this, is to accept that the dream of adopting non-farm income as an alternative to dwindling agriculture sector is now junked.<br />

What is the cost of doubling farmers' income by 2022? -Richard Mahapatra

-Down to Earth The farmers have to make an investment of Rs 463 billion in the next five years A “New India” is the latest national agenda. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in his fourth Independence Day speech, made an appeal with his trademark gesture of both hands pointing towards the gathering: “A new India that would fulfil the dreams of the young and women, and see the income of farmers double.” Doubling of farmers’ income by 2022 is his two-year-old promise. But for the first time, he has added this promise to his agenda of a “New India”.
