If Punjab’s march towards desertification is to be stopped, the best way is to move the cultivation of wheat and paddy out to 50 lakh hectares of land in the Gangetic plains of Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and West Bengal, says Dr Sardara Singh Johl, one of the most prominent agricultural economists in India. The 93-year-old tells ThePrint's Urjita Bhardwaj & Samyak Pandey why Punjab has been in an agrarian crisis for years, and how the lives of its stressed farmers can be made easier.

This has to be trending! We need to shift from paddy and wheat. Our topsoil is already gone, groundwater is depleting and if we don't address these problems soon we will face a crisis like never before
Yes.
Groundwater depletion is the crux of the matter. The earlier the authorities realise it, the better.
What this video directly from the farms to understand the Wheat, rice cycle, reasons and solution.

I follow your page , great content keep it up
The only way to solve this problem is by diverting water to Punjab from Kashmir
Please save this video, the vision of this man is great. He is 93 years old and has a great experience of 60 years in the field of agriculture.. SS Johl sir charan sparash krta hoon aapko ..
Good work by The Print to shed light on the issues that really matter! No words for Sri SS Johl for his invaluable contribution🙏.
Every possible measure needs to be taken to resolve this multi faceted crisis.
Crop diversification and promoting our traditional grians, the Millets (especially Siridhanya by millet man Dr. Khadar Valli) is the need of the hour. Not only Millets require much less water/pesticide/fertilizer and are climate resilient, but also hold immense potential nutritionally, killing two birds with one stone. Also millets are already being distributed at PDS shops, we can increase it and reduce rice.
Its time we come out of vicious cycle of growing and eating just wheat and rice if we want to save both our health and the environment.
Keep spreading awareness everyone.🙏
dude are u from punjab??
I am from Punjab and I totally agree, Because all this is based on facts & data. We cannot produce wheat & rice that no one needs and sell that to Govt. (taxpayers money). Which has no demand & eventually goes into bin.
Yes.
Consumption pattern of people is changing. More vegetables, fruits are being included in dietary habits.
Entire markets were up for grabs for Punjab farmers. Now states like Karnataka, Maharashtra, UP, Gujarat & some years later Bihar will take advantage of these laws and surge ahead.
Quite true friend, Punjabi ppl r such gud businessmen. I just can't get it why they r not getting it
@@santoshchatterjee1936

It's businessmen,traders and middlemen only who are protesting. Their monopoly will be gone when these laws are implemented.
Plus, Average farmers have fearful dt their lands will be taken away. Dts how communists campaigned in Punjab during August-september.
More importantly, a vicious hatred has been engrained in minds of some sections of sikhs against Hindus, Modi & BJP over a period of time. They think dt whatever Modi does is bad.
This video needs to be redone in all the languages of India for every one to understand. The fact that such a brilliant expert, from our own country is giving perfect solution but still no body is ready listen to him is painful.

Salute to Johl sa'ab. He is so knowledgeable and is a true son of the soil. Also, no one can say that he is 93 years old!! He looks at most of 70 years. May he live for more than 100 years and may the govt. finally listens to him.
Govt may want to listen to him but what about the politics played using some farmers who are stuck up on MSP for food produce which is produced more then demand .
Anyone who supports farmer must support this Farm Bills , great work by Print 👍🏻

we are not living in 1907, things have change in domestic and global commerce, and so should the policies.
Hope our Punjabi farmers will understand what Johal Sahab is saying
This is not just Punjab....but every state....every state is mismanaging the water
But Kisaan Union leaders would not even care one bit about his suggestions. Water table declination and air pollution are non important issues for them.
these issues are also important in MP and other states, i remember ppl gurding wells with rifles in MP, but you won't see MP crisis as a target. You do realize Haryana is also a part of this protest in a majority manner, why haven't the Print Posted Haryana crisis.
Most of kisan leaders knows about all those issues and have those issues on their demand list but do you think government will listen to 13 demands when they are not even ready to accept one.
And second thing is farm laws may be good on paper but do you think india have system to implement them properly they can be disaster and can create much more problems than present system.
These are important issues for them. Consecutive governments have failed miserably in providing access to credit for farmers, in ensuring R&D that could lead to diversification and prevent desertification, in ensuring that the small farmer gains bargaining power through a co-operative or a legal support price, but of course ignorant urban dwellers could not care less. They only care about forming uninformed opinions by watching content that suits their pre-conceived notions!
Please do not make statements without knowing the truth. Farmer union leader in Punjab have been asking for diversification for many many years. And the purpose for diversification was to move away from paddy to save water, soil and air. Unfortunately, Nobody (state and center government) heard them. Right now they are more worried about their livelihood and exploitation by corporations.
No one care about desertification in punjab.. because central government buying 2 crops only from Punjab . About 65% of buying only from punjab.. and they want bill on msp so that they can regularly grow these 2 crops.. state indirectly encourage them for votebank
he is a good sensible person.... he should talk to government on behalf of farmers 👍... not those who provocat farmers against government 🙏

@@vidyanagarajan9135 sahi kaha ,,,,abhi kam se kam ise godi toh nhi mante...
Desertification has been an issue for more than 20 years. The question is why don't they guarantee MSP all over India what has desertification got to do with this. All the farmers are saying is guarantee MSP and after that any tom, dick and harry can buy from the farmers.MSP (Minimum support price) is what the farmers are asking not MRP (Maximum retail price).This article is trying to divert attention from the main issue of MSP.
@Meme Central se his subscriptions. XD
@s1 b3 @Joshua Pereira
Well said S1 b3, if you want to do what these goons want, you will end up with the following:
1. A Statutory Commission to fix MSP for all 400+ agri commodities , including Adrak and Dhania! For this we must remove agriciulture must be made the exclusive domain of central laws. HOw many states will agree to it ? Is it wise to do ?
2. Since MSP is cost+, and cost of cultivatiion differs from agro-climatic region to agro-climatic region. Adrak grown in Karnatka will have to have a different MSP than adrak in Maharashtra !
3. What is the use of MSP if nobody buys it at this price . For example if you arrive at Adrak's MSP at Rs.250/kg in Karnataka and if nobody wants to buy it at that price then what will you do ? After all price is a price only of both buyer and seller agree on it. You have to ask the Govt to buy it. Here it will have to be the central govt. This means all 400+ will have to be bought by FCI like Adrak Dhania Corporation of India or Tomato Corporation of INdia!!
4. As a natural corollory, the Statutory Commission will havfe to come with strict licensing for cultivation of crops across India to implement this policy and farmers cannot be allowed to exercise freedom to grow what they want.
5. To implement this we need a special cadre of central police force in the lines of IPS called the Indian Agri Police Service ( IAgPs)!
6. We have to raise a whole bureaucracy to run the Adrak Dhania corporations and Mirchi Tomato Corporations in the lines of IAS, call ot IAgS.
We will buy Dhania at Rs.25 bunch and waste 90% post-harvest and sell it at Rs5 a bunch, at the cost of the economy and eventually destroy our country
@s1 b3 17 lakhs is what the government will pay on procurement.They will sell it to the consumers and the excess can be exported.So the government will make a profit or at least cover the 17 lakh expense.60% of the economy is in rural India.If the farmers are poor the economy is going to fall.So if farmers are rich it’s only going to return back to the economy.It makes more economic sense to make 1000 farmers rich than 1 Ambani rich.
Farmers be like :- what the hell is desertification we will farm msp crop only ,we don't care!!
Msp on all 23 crops no one wants desertification
Hey Kavan, you are being very wrong here. I know what it is. But you don't seem to know difference between better lifestyle and survival. For some out there reforms promises better lives but for marginal farmers it endangered their survival. I know very well about desertification in case you need help , fuck off you don't deserve . Here you have undermined us. I also second these reforms but I am not unsympathetic to other classes like you.
Your ignorance is the source of your confidence and arrogance.

This problem is not just limited to decide on buyer and seller needs but much bigger linked to water & land problem. If not addressed soon then there will be no land for farming in the next 20 years. Thanks a lot The Print for this interview and uncluttering another puzzle..

This gentleman is a gem.His proposals have been obviously ignored over the years.
Well, if the farmers want to dig their own graves, no one can stop them. Not even Modi.
Excellent interview. Came to know many details many of which I wasn't aware. These needs to be circulated and given wide publicity. It appears that farm laws are helpful to Punjab more than any other states. Otherwise they sink into an abyss from which they can't come out. Land is as good as the soil that it has which in turn is as good as the water it holds. We also need to remember that changes towards desertification is an irreversible process.
Yeah see some countries in Sun Saharan Africa
Excellent analysis ,easily understud the complex situation. I hope best intentions will prevail and farmers will address their issues wisely.

Print deserves a special.prize for this splendid video. It is a tragedy that we have created a political system which gives the most vicious nay sayers the front seat in vetoeing anything that is good for the country. BJP's intransigence during the Nuclear deal was as terrible as the Opposition's stand on farm reforms today. If we lose this opportunity to political blackmailers then it will be curtains for us as a nation . Dr. Johal is an collossal institution all by himself. If Punjabi farmers refuse to listen to him then it will be the state's funeral. I request Print should commission a book by the experts on the subject of Agriculture in India. That should be the gold standard text book on the subject.

The Print is doing a phenomenal job of spreading awareness and giving voice to sane and visionary people.
There is need of crop diversification. I read somewhere that India has to spend millions in purchasing Oilseeds and Pulses but why farmers are not producing them.
We imported $10 billion of oilseeds and pulses. The govt had to decrease import duty on them because we were not growing enough.
Average land per person in India is 2 acres, and 2.5 in Punjab.
Growing food is what the earth is for, so why is the land not used more for each individual rather than commercialization of food? Kaliyuga is upon us, friends, and with this in mind, people of good brain substance need to cultivate their own food rather than depend on huge conglomeration farming, (import & export structure). One milk cow per family, planting many fruit trees, producing vegetables, grains, oils, nuts, and whatever is acceptable to the Supreme Lord to be taken as nutritious for body and soul.
Kṛṣṇa does not accept flesh of animals especially cow as His food. No, He accepts milk sweets, and kachoris, halvah, sandesh, rasgulla, subji, rice, puri, samosa, and all that with love.

Your statement itself is contradictory.
@@priyansuchoudhury0246 That is why this situation is sad. Government is using shock strategy on farmers to move people away from farming. This is strong statement but this is ultimate outcome of these laws, only problem here is government is not giving any alternative. Also, these farming laws do not increase farmer's income, watch Ashok Gulati interview in which he clearly claims income of farmers will decrease with these laws. These laws have been made to solve government problem of wheat, rice surplus and Government not able to afford to pay MSP but have been sugarcoated with claims that these will increase income of farmers. Understood?

The way I see it, getting the reform in place is priority. If we can get a reform implemented on time, we can get amendments done to it at double the rate. But simply demanding repealment is downright criminal. Remember, the world is looking at your pace of reforms, this will decide investment.
And all else said, if I am not farming, I'm paying for the food and my taxes on time. I do not have the luxury of subsidies on water and electricity.
So it's time we start taking people off the pedestal of socialistic thought. The ordinary middle class who pays taxes on time and still does not get appreciated is no less than the farmer.

They simply don't have the means to abuse to their water. Indian Punjabi farmers on the other hand have free electricity.

Its quite evident that people like SS Johl knows that the new farm laws are beneficial for farmers in Punjab ( the laws may not be the best but definitely in favor of farmers) , but by not commenting about his views he is doing great injustice to Punjab. there is a saying a person who stays silent to a crime is equally guilty.
he is against the bills
courageous man. why Punjab politicians did not follow his advise is due corruption in the system, does not allowed them to change, even now with changed laws, fighting to reverse them. thanks print for courage, to support the right thing.
Have many print videos being removed by YT?
Hi. We were facing technical issues. However, they have been resolved and all our videos are back on the platform.
Yea, Punjab need urgent diversification of crops to pervent dangerously decreasing level of water.
What a knowledgeable man! He has practical solutions.
A great Indian and best expert on agriculture issues
Well said Sir. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Huge respect for you and your Work. 🙏🏽🙏🏽 This is the Tragedy of our Country we share our Knowledge to other countries and they Implement it and When we try to implement in Our country no one take it seriously. Ghar ki murgi Daal barabar 😔😔😔 lets hope and pray both People and government understand and find a middle way to solve this problem. I think he should be given a chance to present in farmer and government talk so he can teach both of them that instead of fighting we can find a middle way to solve the problem of Punjab & Haryana farmers. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
