On this occasion, Shivraj Singh said agriculture was the backbone of the Indian economy and the farmer was his soul. Farmers are donors Annadata, vegetables and fruits. A farmer is a life. We are making humble efforts to serve the farmers under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. We all work to fulfill a specific goal.
In his speech, Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan said that we have farmers of small fits. If you look around the world, a farmer has 5 to 10 thousand acres of shapes, while we have more than 86% of small and some farmers, and it is difficult to drive livelihood for them. In this regard, there is a 6 point strategy to convert agriculture into a profitable contract. First, increase the production per hectare. Number two, reduce production costs. The third number provides a reasonable price of production. The fourth number, if a disaster comes, to compensate for the loss. Take care of the fifth number, the diversity of agriculture and the sixth number, the health of the earth.
109 types of seeds continue
Shivraj Singh said 109 new seeds were released last year to increase production. Our focus is to land the technology to the laboratory, but we also have boundaries. Other countries produce bumpers from GM seeds, but we are not Ala. There is a lot of production in other countries, but we have less because we don’t have to play with nature. There should be capital to plant good seeds, mechanization, farmers. We increased the KCC limit from Rs 3 lakh to Rs 5 lakh. Prime Minister Kisan Samman Finance Yojana is also the cost of the cost.
Cheap farmers fertilizer
Last year, the subsidy of fertilizer was Rs 2 lakh 54 thousand crores, he said. The Modi government has decided to get the DAP sack only Rs 1350 and the urea sack will be available for Rs 266. Shivraj Singh said the use of the FPO is an attempt to reduce the cost of production. He said that ‘Sangai Shakti Kaliyuga’ is the magic of the FPO. To buy fertilizer and seeds, selling products, processing, which can do the setting of farmers, not the only farmer. Over 10 thousand new FPOs have been created across the country, many of which are doing good work.
The help of vegetable farmers
He said farmers also need to get good prices. The MSP has been arranged to provide the right price of the product. We plan for tomatoes, potatoes and onions. Products are cheap in small cities, and in such a situation, the state’s agency or their products come to another city when their products work with the farmer, the government will carry the cost of transport. If the rates of vegetables have fallen by 10% above last year, the market intervention prices will be fixed. The average gift will determine the ICAR. The difference between the market rate and the market rate will be placed in the farmer’s account by DPD. It will provide 50% of the center and 50% of the state government.
Export duty is removed from onion
Union Minister Shivraj Singh said onions have a 40% export duty, which has been reduced to 20% and now April 1. The import tax of soybene was 0%, and we raised it to 27.5% so that our farmer would get the best price. Similarly, we have reduced the export duty on the export of Basmati rice. Chauhan said the license policy for FPO should be easily and easy, and we will do it. KCC will also consider the card. Where there are problems, we will fight there. Farmers and children remain, and they will not leave any stone.
