Before I give you the modern perspective of the issue, let me give you the historical perspective of the question. When Railwayscame to India in 19th Century , it became easier for the farm products to move in and out of the country quickly, which led to the globalisation of Indian agriculture. Indian Agriculture since then is directly linked with the Global market and the focus of the agriculture changed from basic consumption to commercialization. This led to price volatility hence the frequency of famine, hunger and poverty in India increased. Eg:- The great Bengal Famine was a direct consequence of globalization.
Also, on the positive note the Green Revolution that India achieved in 1970s was achieved through import of HYV seeds of wheat and rice from Mexico.
But unlike during the British Era when globalization was one sided free trade favouring tbe British, 21st century globalization of agriculture operates through an international framework called Aggrement on Agriculture(AoA) under WTO. Globalization has both positive and negative impacts on Indian Farmers.
