Answer 1

According to Food and Agriculture Organisation of United Nations, “Agriculture, with its allied sectors, is the largest source of livelihoods in India. 70 percent of its rural households still depend primarily on agriculture for their livelihood, with 82 percent of farmers being small and marginal.” Agriculture contributes some 16% to the country’s GDP. Also, India is one of the world’s largest producers of crops like rice, wheat, sugarcane, cotton, vegetables and milk. Seeing these data sets, it is very clear that the damage caused by the Covid-19 pandemic will drop the country’s struggling rural economy that supports nearly half its population into further distress.

Hope it will Help You.

Explanation:

Which shop did you rush to first, as you heard of the lockdown? The grocery shop, isn’t it? And who provides us with the raw materials of the groceries? Obviously, the answer is farmers. So, can you imagine your life without farmers? It is difficult to do so because farmers provide us with one of the most basic necessities of life i.e., food.

Since the Coronavirus pandemic started globally, one scene has been common everywhere—empty grocery store shelves as families rushed to stores preparing to settle for long run. But as the shoppers and consumers buy food items, have they thought of the farmers who produce our food? Farmers who today are still in the fields, in this pandemic, often without sick pay or health insurance, planting and harvesting our nation’s food supply.
