Question

How to modernize and commercialize agriculture in Nepal?

Answer 1

Agriculture in Nepal is marked by low productivity which is essentially due to the supremacy of conventional agriculture practices, substantial dependence on weather conditions and poor infrastructure construction.

PACT strives to increase the competitiveness of smallholder peasants and agribusinesses within chosen products value series. The plan raises the value based on eligible schemes from private contractors, producer groups, organizations, merchants and exporters, for professional support, agribusiness development, post-harvest facilities, and business linkages.

PACT will grant supplement of 25-40 percent of the total agreed amount, which depends upon the nature of the application, coming from the endowment recipient.

Answer 2

Answer:

Agriculture in Nepal has long been based on subsistence farming, particularly in the hilly regions where peasants derive their living from fragmented plots of land cultivated in difficult conditions. Government programs to introduce irrigation facilities and fertilizers have proved inadequate, their delivery hampered by the mountainous terrain. Population increases and environmental degradation have ensured that the minimal gains in agricultural production, owing more to the extension of arable land than to improvements in farming practices, have been cancelled out. Once an exporter of rice, Nepal now has a food deficit.
