Should Agricultural Subsidies be stopped?

Subsidy of agriculture should not be stopped. Our farmer still having technological, pricing problems. Most importantly today most of the green lands are converted into residential colonies, eczs, so some of the remaining farmers need subsidies.

Yes, the subsidies provided to poor farmers by giving them at lower prices for purchasing fertilizers, seeds, cheaper electricity for agriculture activities, cheaper agriculture bank loans, purchasing farm equipment at lower bank loans etc. But this has only negative impacts on our economy. We are dependent on import for fertilizers needs, therefore it is foreign currency reserves loss. The subsidized fertilizers do not have proper distribution mechanism this only increases the black marketing and sold the fertilizers to simple & illiterate farmers at the higher rates. Even the bank official demand bribe from farmers for agricultural loans.

No, never as INDIA is agricultural country it is our genuine business. If we will not provide subsidies then farmers won't be take chance of farming in difficult condition of weather. If farmers are not going to farm then.

And most important thing is that farming is totally depend on weather conditions. So it is risk if less rain or flood. And our economy is somewhat depend on agriculture.

That's why govt should provide subsidies for healthy environment for farmers and INDIA'S ROOT of business and everything.

GOVT. Must give them surety.

About my opinion, the things are wrong about the agricultural field because more 70% people having an economy in agree. So if we do not get support, Agricultural then the basic hazard to our people. If we give a subsidy to agriculture then all over to create good business of our nation in any field.

Animal agriculture should stop being subsidised.

The fact is that not everyone believes that Animal agriculture is ethical or even necessary in today's world.

I'd give 100% subsidies to crop farmers on top of whatever they're getting already. Without them, we Will all starve. No matter how devoted you are to eating flesh, at some point you're going to eat a plant.

Since everyone is in need of crop farmers and not everyone finds Animal agriculture ethical. The answer should be clear on what to do.

I think govt subsidies in agriculture sector should not be stopped. Let us suppose govt wants to using some new seeds which would yield much higher but the farmer is still reluctant to use it because he might think it will led him complete loss, so if govt gives him subsidy, then he had a hope if using this new kind of seeds led him loss, govt will provide him subsidies for his losses, then he uses those seeds which might give him profit, then in another year he himself would use them without any fear, in this way new polices get easily implemented.
