Amid the fear of being branded as anti-farmer, the NDA govt has seamlessly embarked to reap its vote-share among the country’s farmers who played significant role in its overwhelming victory in 2014 general election, by subsequently rolling out schemes like Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchai Yojana, Fasal Bima Yojna, among others. The NDA's softball came close on the heels of the government cutting down the prices of major fertilisers including DAP and NPK in the impending Monsoon season, and most significantly, that too, with immediate effect.
Certainly, the decisive step, taken under "Jameen Bachao- Kisan Bachao" campaign, points to an instantaneous profit to the farmers splendidly worth 4500 crore but wavering the fact if the agriculture could appear lucrative, given to the sharp decrease in prices of fertilisers. Furthermore, The govt is also mulling over loan waiver to sugarcane farmers. The schemes and plans, though, would, potentially, benefit the farmers, but despite the menacing facet, that the agricultural wage has severely deprived farmers of a better livelihood, the government must also ferret out if its plans are working out to salvage them through that stinking untidy modus vivendi.
Low-interest crop loans carry their own significance, but the agriculture could not be lucrative to farmers until they are necessitated to bear burdensome baggage of loans even to sow seeds. With a prodigious section of farmers today, absurdly, bound to bulldoze its livelihood in farms, and forlornly, gazing for other options, the policymakers must chew over profoundly to recognize and weed out the ingraining causes with view to make them self-dependent.
The prevailing political interests and vote-bank politics, perhaps, have prevented government, hitherto, to bring out farmers of that minacious vessel of dependence, given the fact that even the farmers from the advanced harvesting states are, though reluctantly (because of dearth enough money) habituated to the free electricity and water. Accompanying the waivers and formulation of plans, government must also ensure the self-dependence of farmers by modernizing the harvesting and ridding the farmers of those traditional tools for agriculture with a view to expand agricultural growth and leveraging the farmers to their self-dependence.
