A thought for the struggle of farmers

India is an agricultural nation. A large number of Indian individuals are farmers. They are the foundation of the nation. They supply the food crops and the oilseeds. They create the commercial crops. They create some raw materials for our companies. They therefore form the backbone of our country.

The peasants of India are the most industrious workers in the world. They are constantly cultivating for the yields by working day and night. They used to work in the hottest weather conditions and even in the rain. They don’t fear any season, they just fear that their crops will grow great and produce good results.

They wake early towards the start of the day before sunrise and rest after sunset. They get the best night’s sleep because they do the hardest work in the world, which is cultivating. They plow the land and sow the seeds for the development of the crops. According to them, the best returns are the gold for them. They have no enthusiasm for the gold or the silver or any cosmetics whatsoever. Their gold is the crops they grow. As the guardians do for their children, farmers watch over the crops during the day. They turn into the keepers of the yields to protect them from the oxen that go astray.

When the crops grow into plants and the crops are ready to be harvested, they once again keep watch over the crooks who may come and steal the harvest. As the harvests prepare for closure, they buy the crops and take them home. The Indian farmer has no suitable home.

Struggle of peasants:

• Instability:

Agriculture in India is largely dependent on rain. Therefore, generating grains hesitates for a seemingly endless amount of time. A time of abundant grain yield is often followed by a time of intense want. This, in turn, causes value wages and business hesitation.

• Barren land:

Another real problem responsible for the low efficiency in rural areas is that the soil is being polluted by the increasing level of stream and canal pollution, which is incrementally caused by high mechanical effluents and toxic metals. In addition, soil disintegration, one of the critical foundations of corruption, is also happening at a rapid pace due to fissures and fissures, waterlogging and shifting crops. Improper use of compost and pesticides also causes the absence of supplements in the land that are vital to healthy agricultural efficiency.

• Disorganized Farming Procedures:

Agriculture is very much a disordered distribution. There is no conscious institutional and hierarchical management associated with development, water system, collection and so on. Institutional finances are not sufficiently accessible and the slightest purchase receipt cleared by the administration does not reach the poorest farmer.

• Illiteracy:

Illiteracy, lack of awareness about the continuous progress in agriculture and poor financial footing of the ranchers are some of the main reasons behind the consistently declining profitability of agriculture. Similarly, abnormal condition of income gap between rich and poor farmers, rural and non-horticulture workers is responsible for the non-satisfaction of even the essential needs of Indian farmers

• Economically unstable:

Poor funding, untimely funding and conflicting or opposing government strategies have seriously exacerbated farmers’ problems.

• Economic exploitation:

Exploitation by the intermediary is the reason given for not getting the best price for the farmers’ deliveries. The government should promote the scheme called Farmers Market where the farmers can specifically sell their produce for the customers at a reasonable price.

• Unavailable government plans:

Be that as it may, the vast majority of sponsorship and welfare schemes reported by central and state governments fail to reach poor farmers in Indian horticulture. Despite what might be expected, only huge landowners benefit from those plans.

• High debt burden:

The main cause of farmers ending their lives is the increase in their liabilities and indebtedness. Over the top loan, costs must be unlawfully announced and the legislator must take strict measures against greedy money banks. Easy access to institutional credit should reach small and peripheral farmers, without cumbersome systems.

Solutions for the farmers:

 Multiple crops:

Developing multiple crops e.g. coconut, pineapple, ginger, banana, apple, turmeric, papaya will bring profitable results to the farmers.

 Use of new techniques:

Research efforts should continue to create crops with higher yield potential and better protection against insects in Indian agriculture. Innovative advances in agribusiness must be passed on to poor farmers. Where current crops would not fare well under drought and climate conditions, ranchers should be persuaded to develop yields that are easy and conservative to develop.

 Agricultural education:

Despite the fact that education has improved greatly in urban areas, the administration has generally overlooked the same in provincial areas and specifically in an agricultural area. This is why farmers are not sufficiently aware of the various plans given by the administration.

 Crop insurance:

Revenue insurance is a must and the claim should be handled effortlessly under the supervision of the local authorities. Conventional crop protection relies on the immediate estimation of damage incurred by a farmer to determine his/her payout. Be that as it may, field accident evaluation is often not plausible or expensive, as the majority of our ranchers are smallholders. Record-based protection, on the other hand, responds to the characterized parameter. Index-based protection focuses on being simple and treating all backup plans within the characterized land area in the same way.

 Better irrigation facilities:

Usually, it is not the absence of water, but the absence of a legitimate water administration that causes water shortages. Improved contemporary rainwater harvesting techniques need to be created. Water management can be made more vigorous through interstate co-task on water resources, where excess water from sustained streams can be used for the needy areas.
