Mr. Gaur,
This is the first note I am writing because it pained me to see that the so called intelligensia fighting for the wrong things rather than going deep into the reasons of the decay and correcting them.
the land holding of a poor farmer,I am talking poor farmer, on average is less than few acre and the no. Of children is three or more. With this land holding they are unable to meet their minimum needs of food and clothing, forget about educating the children,their marriages or some emergency requirements. What will be the status if the land piece is further divided amongst the children. They will have no option but to sell the land to the money lenders and become criminals/live on Govt. Doles like MNREGA or such govt sponsored scheme,because of which we, rather than making them self respecting proud Indians, we are making them beggars, thieves,criminals. As you are well aware even the doles given by the Govt. Do not reach the intended beneficiaries. By these schemes the govt encourages infrastructure which is thoroughly inefficient and corrupt.
By all means agriculture should be given the highest importance but at the same time job creation is also equally important,and for that industrialisation is the only way. For that land mass is needed, world class infrastructure is required. Fair compensation for the acquired land must be given to the farmers. Their rehabilitation by providing jobs to them and their children should be ensured. It should also be ensured that the purpose for which the land is acquired is used for that only.
Further Our agricultural output per unit of land mass is one third or less of the developed countries output. This is where our efforts should be put ,if we really want to help farmers.

Ashok

We all know 'Make in India' is not for Agriculture and farm products. You dont need foreign technology or manpower to make storage silos for rotting grains or cold storages for farm produce.We all know Land acquisition amendmentBill 2015 is not for farmers but corporates unless the Govt. makes available data of land acquired since 1947 for various purposes-Defence Projects, Public Sector undertakings, roads ,irregation , Special Economic zones and Industrial usages. How much of the acquired land is used profitably and how much lying unused. Specifically I give an example of land alloted to Ind ian Agril. Research Insitute(IARI) by Pandit Nehru Govt. after independence. Today it is in the heart of New Delhi. Now Agril research is practically in private hands. So also the land acquired by various state Govt. as State Farms. Are these really helping farmers in making the improved seeds available, raise productivity and other related issues of farmers.2. Future of In dian Agriculture is very bleak. Si nce liberalisation, the Govt. approach is to treat agriculture as an industry. The figures are quoted to show that its contribution in GDP is less than 20% and the rate of growth is 2% as compared to industries and services. But nobody is prepared to help the farmer except lip service. If the Govt. creates conditions that a farmer,s son has to migrate to the city to get a job, what hope there is for the future of Agriculture. Agriculture in India cannot be Agri. in US or Europe.Agricuture is a back breaking activity. Food security ceased to be important after the green revolution of 70,s. With the climate change and Govt. policy we are heading to a bleak future for farming community-the backbone of rural India.JKGaur

politician should first think about situation and condition of our
Indian farmers without playing politics otherwise young generation
will not forgive any politician. If FARMERS survive then only people
of India will get sufficient food to eat. Without nutritious and
quality food they is no sense in any kind of progress in our life.
Simple living and high thinking IS OUR COUNTRY'S spirit Moreover it
should be think of that FARMERS children will get free education
facility. Interest free loan for marriage of their daughters. There
should be some concrete plan framed by government in such a way that
farmers get monitory help by way of depositing direct fund in their
account at the worst time in their life when there is no rain or more
rainfall damaging the crops, vegetables, fruits, cotton etc. Even
people at large in India wants to help to farmers by paying something
from their salary can directly deposit in their account as a message
to farmers that we all Indian are your brothers and sisters to help
you in your worst days of your life. Even many Industrialist and
Corporate offices can help by compulsorily appointing permanently in
Job farmers' children in their organization. It is also necessary that
farmers locality should also developed by roads, busroute and small
railways accompanying by small scale industry and wholesale markets
hospitals, Agricultural and polytechnic colleges, Police station,
around them as Modi government is explaining to People and farmers
at large. Every Indian's duty to protect poor farmers by help them
out in all possible manner. Kishan vikas patra scheme should be
encouraged IN SUCH A WAY that money UP TO TWO LAKHS ONLY EVERY
YEAR will become double in six years and Tex rebate will be full so
that people of India mainly middle class service people rush to save
their money in KISHAN VIKAS PATRA. MIDDLE CLASS SERVICE PEOPLE WILL
BE BENEFITED AND WILL HAPPY,
