I am not against the article but the ground reality of farmers which I’ve observed, i can tell 3 things

1. first of all farmers of our country are mostly non-educated, they cannot take full advantage of the Govt. Policies like loans and other help. Due to lack of proper education they dont have the crisis management for draugts, floods and other stuffs. Even for the management of plant disease and pests/insects farmers used cheapest option available, instead of proper insectiside/pesticide, and same for the fertilizers too.
Today the farmers are actually in Dilema, wheather continue with the traditional procedures of farming or go with the current trends.

2. Article mentioned about Land should be provided by Govt. but the resources are minimum, from where do the Govt. will provide land. High yeilding crops such as BT-crops are developed by the scientists for the same reason but farmers and society are not accepting it. basically they have doubt about the toxicity of crops.

3. last about the buisness, farmers should hit the market, but they sell their stuff to Middle-men.

so the development of Agriculture will only come from proper education of Plant sciences, Agricultural sciences and Buisness skills.
Govt. should try to provide these things to the farmers to keep their interest not the cheap loans and the free seeds and fertilizers.
