Because of mediators in agriculture product marketing farmers get very less amount of price for their product.
Because of mediators in agriculture product marketing farmers get very less amount of price for their product.Let consider example of wheat crop. Farmer gets 250-300 rupees for 20kg of wheat in market. If you buy the same wheat from market, it has worth of almost 500 rupees for 25 kg of same wheat(400 for 20kg), only different of packing is there. So for 20kg of wheat mediator gets 100 rupees ( considering 50 rupees(max.) packing, transportation etc. cost, actual it is not such huge amount). Which is very huge amount.Now lets see crop production profite of wheat. Farmer can get max. yield of wheat of 2000-2500 kg(100-125× 20 kg) per acre. Let's consider farmer gets price of wheat 300 rupees per 20kg. So he gets almost 37500 rupees almost per acre ( considering 125×20kg per acre). Expenditure of nurturing the crop per acre is almost 25000. Now at last profile got by farmer is 17500 rupees (max.)per acre. Which take 3-4 month for final product of yield. Here cost for ploughing the land at the end of year is not considered.
