Answer 2

Answer:

Before explaining the advantages & Disadvantages, let me explain why the old farm laws were came into force in 1955. At the time of Independence, there was food grain scarcity in India due to which we used to import Food grains from USA every week to to save our lives. To deal with food grain scarcity, GoI India enforced this essential commodities Act 1955, which wholly restricts the exports of Food grains(Majorly rice and wheat). Later on due to Introduction of Green Revolution in 5year plans, India achieved self sufficiency in food grains in just 20 years and Govt started storing food grains in godowns by procuring them at an MSP. Yet these laws which were enforced to avoid food scarcity, were not removed. When there is surplus of produce, farmers should be allowed to export them. Instead, these laws restricted farmers from exporting their produce. Not only country, no food grains are allowed to export within other states of Country. Due to which there are lack of buyers and lack of competition between buyers, farmers are getting less rates by selling them in http://locally. At present, We have 8.1 crore tons of food grains in our Godowns which bought from farmers by the Govt with a guaranteed MSP(Minimum Support Price). Just the number says how much inefficient these laws are for Modern India. With the amendment& Introduction of new farm laws, these restrictions are wrapped up. These new amendments in agri-sector are not different/lesser in comparison with the Liberalization of Industrial Sector which was happened in early 1990s. Infact, these laws invite huge corporate investment in Agriculture sector. In a corrupted system like our country’s It is better for a farmer to believe in corporates than these Govt. So, these laws are just removing the barriers and restrictions on farmer’s produce(this is a boon for them).

Advantages:

• Farmers can sell their produce in anywhere in India/World as per their desired selling price. Where as, they have to sell their produce in Mandis by paying a mandatory “Market Cess” before. They were selling illegally outside the Mandi by giving Bribe to Police.

• Govt wont impose restrictions in future on Agriculture produce. In April, prices of Onions were 10/kg in my city, but none cared about it. When the price reached its peak recently, govt immediately regulated onion market and banned the export of onions to control the prices locally. This is turning out to be the biggest advantage for a farmer in the new amendments.

• Don’t need to pay the mandatory market cess if you are not using Mandis/ Govts market yards from now. Adds some monetary advantage.

• Contract farming is legal from now in India. This will protect farmer from Price/Market fluctuations. If client and contractor have agreed at a particular price. It is then Clients liability if market falls and the contract price will be paid to farmer irrespective of market price. The contract is completely as per the agreement of both parties. No corporate can take the land away from farmer as per land ceiling Acts.

• New private investments in rural India(or places near to the agricultural produce) in terms of segregation, processing, packaging, Cold storage facilities, new technologies and ultimately it creates employment for this young generation and after 73 years of Independence, rural India might now see development with arrival of corporate investments. Enough fixed income will improve quality of life in rural areas

• Govt will continue to procure essential commodities at MSP but it is now farmer’s wish to sell the goods to his desired buyer. This will increase competition between buyers thereby farmers gets good rate for his produce.

With the removal of restrictions, export of agrarian products increase thereby improving economy and value of rupee

Disadvantages:

• With the arrival of corporate investments, there is a risk for farmer of being exploited if there is no minimum market price. But govt cannot guarantee this Minimum market price for private markets. Imagine in case of soap manufacturing Industry, if govt regulate its price by putting floor and ceiling price would any company like to investment in an economy with so much state involvement? Remember the fact that India failed as socialistic economy till 1990s.

• Disputes in contract farming: In a contract, disputes among both parties are not so uncommon. There should be dedicated tribunals or Civil courts for fast and transparent dispute resolutions.

• As the role of govt may reduce with these news laws, there might be decrease in subsidies and agriculture welfare schemes in future. Until there is an establishment of enough long term investments in agriculture sector , i feel the govt should consider monetary support for farmers in the form of various subsidized inputs.
