What are the challenges faced by farmers in terms of fair price and procurement
Farmers are not getting fair price for produce and procurement not adequate, says Congress
- Farmers often face challenges in negotiating fair prices for their produce due to lack of price transparency in the market.
- They may also be affected by middlemen who take a significant share of the profits, leaving the farmers with minimal earnings.
- Inadequate procurement facilities and infrastructure further limit farmers' ability to sell their produce at fair prices.
- Government procurement policies and mechanisms may not always be efficient or accessible to all farmers, leading to inconsistencies in procurement processes.
- Market fluctuations and price volatility can also impact farmers' income, as they are not able to predict or stabilize their earnings.
