It has created heavy competition because of the techniques it offers.
- Farming necessitates a lot of effort. Small farmers grow their own fields with the help of their families. They are often unemployed and less educated.
- With the development of technology and better farming practices, the competition among farmers has increased. They agree to work at lower wages as a result of competition.
- Since, sometimes the farmers are unable to understand the know how of machinery it further creates unemployment and thus competition among daily wages farmers.
- Landlords squeeze out higher profits by reducing employment and rising work load by further adopting labour saving equipments, using pesticides, and moving from grain production.
