The Issue

A farmer who is often called the "Annadata" in our country, lead a poor financial life...he grows food by burning in hot summer and cold winter and faces extreme climatic conditions (more or less as our soldiers)...but in return how much they earn??many times they have to commit suicide too to get relief from debts...this is the present situation...coming to the etiology...crop or food grows in fields and finally comes to ur kitchen...but in between too many phases it has to go through...suppose onion...A Farmer collects it and sells to the whole seller A for Rs. 4/Kg...A will make a minimum profit on it+transport Charge Rs. 2+Labour Rs. 2+etc etc Rs. 2...it Becomes Rs. 10/kg..He sells to the retailer B..Now B will make a profit on this Rs. 10+ he will add his own expenses..suppose it Became Rs. 12/Kg...and by this is the amount You r buying Onion...Rs 8/Kg is going to the middle men...which is the main reason of inflation...This system should be abolished to raise the condition of the Farmers and the common buyers pocket and to cut down high rate of food items....We want facilities  and provisions for Farmers to sell their own produce directly in the market (already available in some parts of the country)
