I made a full-fledged write-up on how agriculture can be made economically viable. The same stands uploaded on my web site entitled 'Modernize India'. I welcome members to go through it, make use of the same if found acceptable and give me their sincere feedback if they so wish. The gist of points made by me in my write-up are three-fold: (1) The amount being disbursed as subsidy on fertilisers, pesticides, seeds, electricity, interest subvention on farm credit, loan waiver etc. (around Rs.1 lakh crores) may be defrayed towards premium on insurance of farmers' income; (2) agricultural produce may to the extent possible be supplied directly to the consumers/users to minimize intermediaries who cause the difference between the income received by the farmer to be only 40% or 50% of the price paid by the consumer/user; (3) a warehouse/cold storage and small-scale processing unit(s) may be set up in or near each village minimizing rural unemployment.

1. The cultivators have to come out of their usual options and follow the Government directions for different/ alternate cropping to reduce their expected losses . 2. The Cultivators are to be educated on the benefits cited by Sri Sastry Vemuri and this alone brings a lot of difference in their venture making agriculture profitable . 3. As already suggested earlier in a number of incidents , the Governments have to step ahead to remove the mediating needs and provide direct linkage District-wise extending the activities of State Trading Corporations towards the not only the food grains but also the daily essentials like Vegetables and Fruits . Unless the Governments realize their duty towards arresting the cost of Food Grains which has been going into the hands of MEDIATING BROKERS , there will not be any change in the Tragedy of Farmers , as well as the high and escalated prices by the general public at large . more
