Are You Hungry? Have You Eaten? with ANSWERS.
In India- Farmers
How do farmers live?
They live in a very poor condition, without access to basic facilities. Go through and see what basic facilities they get poor facility
What are their earnings?
They can earn much more by selling their piece of land than farming and earning from that produce. They are struggling to meet the ends from their farming incomes.
What is the government doing to make them more productive?
Actually nothing, otherwise we could have seen the results much earlier. Banks are supposed to support farmers, by giving low interest loans to farmers. Somehow that has not translated to farming productivity or increase in farmers' standard.
How efficient is our agriculture?
Poor. Read the next answer, you will know.
Where are we ranking in terms of our agricultural efficiency?
Far below than the potential. India is 55% less efficient* than China and 40% less efficient* than Indonesia.
What is the comparison of software GDP and (the real produce) agriculture GDP?
Software GDP* is 40% and Agricultural GDP* is 16% How do you call this country as a country of villages if farming gives only this GDP.
What do we do to make India no.1 in agriculture
1)Young people to be motivated to see, agriculture as one of the professional fields
2)Banks to genuinely support the current farmers
3)Farming to be treated important than real estate (people select selling the land because it is much easier than farming)
How to reduce food price
Support the farmer and the right politician (India is changing. Go through what AAP has done in Delhi www.aamaadmiparty.org)
How to take care of poor Indians (Indians who are poor)
Produce and Share, Ingenuously, than export and sell. Japan is an example of that principle.
