India's farmers started getting empowered from the 1950s. The first, and game changing, step was abolition of zamindari and re-distribution of land to cultivators. The second game changer was providing access to finance by PSU banks, starting from 1969. Around that time, we developed the high yield seeds which raised agriculture productivity by many times. And most of the major crops are supported by pricing floors.

Farmers need to be coached extensively in modern techniques like drip irrigation, water optimization, crop-to-land matching, and making available GM seeds which can raise outputs dramatically. Farmers also need knowledge, information, and market access for more profitable crops like vegetables & fruits, and alternatives like dairy farming, eggs & poultry farming and such.

Dr Kurien transformed India's dairying. From a perpetual shortage of milk, he changed the country into the word's largest milk producer, despite us not being large consumers of beef (and therefore restricting the returns from raising cattle). He wanted to do the same thing for veggies, by encouraging farmers to cultivate these and providing them quick access to major urban markets. The "Safal" mission remains incomplete, though a few retail and e-tail chains have moved in to fill it.

Improving the lot of farmers can have a huge multiplier effect considering that even today, around 60% of our people depend upon it for livelihood.
