  Just 100 km south-west of Bengaluru is  Sakkare Nadu  (land of sugar) – Mandya. With five rivers – Cauvery, Hemavathy, Lokapavani, Veera Vaishnavi and Shimsha – flowing through it, Mandya is known for progressive agriculture. Two large dams – Krishna Raja Sagara and Hemavathy – irrigate over a lakh hectares in the district. Lush green fields of paddy, sugarcane, mulberry and vegetables around the buzzing town of Mandya display a prosperous image. Mandya’s agriculture attracts media attention for three reasons – its dispute with the neighbouring states on sharing Cauvery water, farmers’ agitation for release of payment against cane procured by factories, and farmer suicides. This year’s pandemic and lockdown posed a new crisis for the illustrious farmers of Mandya. Lockdown restrictions on transport during March and April forced them to sell their vegetables in Mandya market itself, for half the price they fetched last year. Since the month of May, transport restrictions...

  It will have really serious consequences. govt will always tell thier benefits that's how it do things. When they did demonetization they said there will be curb in black money, corruption and bank interest rate will be down and there will be no maoist activity but sir it failed because u were not told the other side. I am son of farmer i can tell u the side effects of this amendment 1. Govt removed the intra state trade barriers but what u think in a country where the average land holding of 86% percent farmer is less than 2 hectare can the farmer from Assam sell his produce in Kerala it is impractical due ro transportation costs its second flaw will be the state govt will not give enough attention to its farmer such as Bihar govt can let thier farmers let on the prices being given in haryana , farmers will be caught in vicious trap where they will be left helpless. 2. Storage facilities , yeahh it is right that india is now self sufficient in food but can u tell me then why we ...

In recent times, agriculture made headlines for all the wrong reasons: Farmers quitting cultivation; the sector turning into a perennial loss-making enterprise; and the country’s official policy to downsize the dependence on agriculture to reduce overall economic hardship     among the poorest of the population. Agriculture’s fast-declining economic importance reached such an extent that economists suggested India had already turned into a non-agrarian economy and the more people quit farming, the better the fortune of remaining farmers would be. But two developments in the first half of September seem to be forcing us to revise these perceptions of Indian farming and farmers. First, when India recorded 23.9 per cent contraction in the gross domestic product (GDP) in the first quarter (April-June, 2020), agriculture emerged as  the unbelievable winner, growing at 3.4 per cent . This growth in the agriculture sector was based on the rabi or winter ...

 "Jai Jawan, Jai Kisan." We all know that this a very popular slogan. You must have heard it multiple times but how much do we actually value our farmers and our soldiers? You can guess this by the fact that very few of you would already be aware of what I'm going to write about today. I'm sure that most of you would have no idea about the topic. But it isn't your fault- our media deliberately hides such issues under the carpet. Recently, the government has come up with 3 ordinances related to agriculture which has infuriated the farmers of the nation. Especially the farmers of Punjab and Haryana are out on the streets to protest against these ordinances.  WHY are they protesting ? WHAT changes are suggested by these ordinances and WHY does it concern all of us(the common man)? In this blog, come let us find out about all of this. Firstly let us know about the Indian Agriculture System and for this we will have to go back in history for a bit- When the country got...
