I think the subsidies which is given to the farmers is should be distinguished well in the poor farmers and rich farmers.
I think there should be tax on the farmers because as per the income tax limits up to 180000/ there is no taxes applied. And as we know the poor Indian farmers unable to cross that limit so it will give advantage to catch rich farmers who shows there BLACK MOONEY in WHITE MONEY so those farmers will be taxable under IT ACTS.
So only with emotionally decisions we can't able to correct decision for that we have to take decision with mind.

Indian economy is an agrarian economy. Most of the exports products or the export basket consist of agricultural products. Since independence agricultural production has increase from thousands to millions. This great jump of the agricultural production is due to the special emphasis by the ruling government in their 10 year as well as in 5 year plans. Huge amt of subsidies were and are granted for the globalization and modernization of the global export basket and consumption basket and actually the agricultural production has diversified in years passed by and are diversifying in years to come.
In every budget there has been an allocation of the subsidy amount and during the years subsidy get increased many times sometimes its natural reasons sometimes its due to some other but material personal benefits. So, I am of the opinion that a fast and accurate track or path should be formed so that the subsidies granted is equal to the benefits of the full amount. No misappropriation or dumping of the subsidy amount should be made so that Indian agricultural field improves and leads to balance of payment surplus and reduced current account deficit.

Subside of agriculture shouldn't be stopped because 80% of India directly or indirectly depends on agriculture. And the goverment should help them improving in the field so that agriculture in India develops and we can even plan to export to another country so that farmers can earn very well.

For this, one needs to look into the negative effects of subsidies which are far more than the positive effects. Once received, people become dependent on the subsidies. Subsidies make the beneficiaries lethargic. Hence, subsidies are sometimes termed as sweet poison. Misuse of subsidies for political purpose is known worldwide. Subsidies support one industry at the expense of the other. When a person is given subsidy benefit, it imposes burden on some other person in the country. Malpractices have often been noticed in the administration of subsidies.

No, as per the situation in India whatever subsidies provided by the govt to the public is not transparent, first govt should insure that subsidies should directly go to the farmer a/c. In India beneficiaries are not getting the benefit which would they have to get. Agriculture is most important sector in India but because of not proper support from the govt agriculture sector contribution is decreasing day-by-day, whatever subsidies is provided by the govt is going the waste and govt saying that we have provide so much of benefit to the farmer.

Hello everyone as per my opinion subsidy to farmers should not be stopped, why because 70% of Indians are depends upon the agriculture and also they are backbone to our nation economy they are scarifying their entire life to feed the world, now a days food which we are taking totally artificial with that human life also coming down now the people how depends on agriculture are decreasing day by day because of they are not getting good returns on their crops, they don't have any awareness on technology the government should give the training to the farmers for better working and should encourage to minimize the artificial fertilizers. The government should encourage the students to study the agriculture education.

Hi.
India has been more resources but not sufficient contributed in productivity. So be must strong agriculture subsidies by good governance.
Sunset clause act in agriculture subsidy, not univeslisatio, rashning etc.
In the sense of agriculture subsidies shouldn't stopped but his should be rationalisation.

Hai friend, this is my view we all know that India is a agricultural country here most of people are depend on agriculture. Indian farmer is very poor because of indeterminate and most of people is illiterate that how to sell the aggro product. And on other side farmer use the traditional way of production because of poverty they are not capable to bye the any latest technology so production and productivity may decrease. So, the government must be help to our farmer in way of subsidies, provide the latest technology at low rate and give the knowledge about the seed.
Like use of scientific concept which kind of seed will suitable for which kind of land with verification. And for buying basic material seed, urea for that also government help them via subsidies. If our farming will improve more and more it give the low unemployment as well better rewards then other sector.
