While you covered most of the points of the bill. You missed a very important point that resolution of contracts etc will not be done by courts but via the SDM. As you know our farmers are so game with contract law and SDMs in India are so honest. This will work perfectly in favour of the farmers whenever an issue with a corporation arises.
Also pls update the video regarding the other very imp. Bill - the Essential commodities act. Doing away with it -Wouldn’t that lead to even more hoarding & blackmarketing by big biz?? Chronology...
@Geetha Rani M There isn't much option. If you're getting shit prices currently and someone comes and gives you better option then surely they'll be tempted. There are many who barely make enough to sustain their family, won't you be tempted to go for such an offer. Maybe you've never seen/worked on a farm so let me give you another analogy. At your job you barely make enough to sustain you and your family, now a corporate comes with a better job offer with much better pay, are you not going to take it?
@Pasta They have to give a higher rate initially to tempt the farmers. Its once that the farmers are trapped in the contracts that they can change things. Since you're giving the example of Canada and US, read up on the history of how it worked over there. Initially it worked quite well over there it was much later with consolidation of the existing companies etc that things began to change.
exactly our thoughts for the last few years. according to the sanghis, we should be indebted to have been born in this land so should keep paying these goons all our money to stay alive. if we are not in jail, we should consider ourselves lucky for the day until one day our luck will run out!
You missed out the most important fact... Farmers are not actually against bills.... They are saying just assure us MSP in writing in bill....on which govt is giving verbal assurances which is not acceptable to them....farmers are more intelligent than all economists put together...
Very intelligent indeed sir. I am a dhania, karipatta farmer. Will any govt give MSP? And will FCI buy from me if the price goes below MSP ? Or the rice/wheat farmers of Pubjab and Haryana are more equal than me ?
Sorry you are mistaken. It is just not about MSP, but it also includes contract farming, no tax from private buyers, and removing some foods from essential foods. There are more intricacies apart from these points.
Then comes issue of hoarding as there will be no law or legislations that will govern the private players as they will not be bound by law or government support.
@@tatakaye2 sir, farmers very well know that once MSP is assured, they can face any challenge....by demanding MSP, they have not only simplified their demand but also have won the respect of every Indian except those you know who not be named....otherwise you would be adjudged anti-national

I have spoken with many real farmers regarding farm laws. Mostly they compare it with ola and uber model of business. Their biggest fear is: The corporates will give very good rates initially, then all the farmers will sell only to corporates. Then as a result of no business in APMC yards, APMC will collapse, as such even MSP will collapse. Once the competition with government is eliminated. Only then the corporates shall indulge in exploitation of farmers and the consumers. By rigging the rates of commodities according to their wish, because of their storage capacity, and in-between collaboration amongst many corporates. Its a logical scenario according to me. Solution could be: The government can give assurance that it will never stop MSP and keep on running APMC by subsidy for next 25 years.

Why did you exclude the fact that msp is not a legal provision? Also, it was promised in an election manifesto that it would repeal the agricultural produce market committees act and make trade in agricultural produce - including export and Inter state trade - free from all restrictions. Why then are we raising barriers when in principle all of us agree it's good for the farmers? APMC is not going anywhere either, so everyone has an option to sell there.

Thank you for this valuable information. This is happening all around the world. It is about disapropriation of farmers and humanity at large. And privatisation through coporate business which have no understanding of life or respect of nature or humanity. In Germany government is making so many stipulations that farmers are close to insolvency as they cannot do all the investments the government is asking for. Once farming is stopped in Germany - of course food needs to be imported. This way they can make the world dependent by "owning the food chain" they can "control" humanity. Vandana Shiva has brought this scheme to light and she is a woman of wisdom and foresight as well as fortitude. Thank you and God bless you. May the true people of earth rise in love and truth and may we live in harmony with the sacred planet.
Must say, every time to oppose just to oppose is will lead country no-where. I know some of the economists also favored these bills. Anyway, without private players, in airlines to cellular sectors, where we might have been, we all know. Anyway, for such a big & complex country, not everyone can be made happy. So if Punjab & Haryana protest & no other major states are protesting then might be political influence. Else, entire country is mostly into farming. So country should have been burning if all are not happy with it!
Meghnad has been quite fair to the proposed laws. Contract farming itself had been recommended by MS Swaminathan. The point is that since some of these reforms have already been tried out and didn't work out as expected, coz you know, the world is not ideal, doubts regarding their implementation and discussion of steps (with stakeholders) required to correct them are pending. The way the govt went about this is so undemocratic and farmers are clearly unconvinced is the problem with this. Last I checked, India is not an authoritarian state as per its constitution. Remember folks bold does not necessarily equate to wise.
Thank you , this is exactly what I was looking for last evening , to understand the farm bill better before passing any judgements/comments . This was helpful and it’s strange that no news channel or website has put effort into explaining it to us !

@subhadeep mandal Not saying it's all wrong but if you've watched the video I hope you've already seen the other side of the coin too. If you can't, you're part of the problem.
Dear Sir: Agreed that Punjab and Haryana farmers are doing well and they want the current STATUS QUO to continue. But there are other farmers in the rest of INDIA who want to scale up and do something. For example, KERALA FARMERS are all ready to scale up on JACK FRUIT POWDER and are making arrangements for cold storage system which will be made available through FPO (farmer producer organizations). Like this there are many many examples. If Punjab and Haryana are happy with STATUS QUO then so be it.
We were told that govt would no longer regulate price of petrol, and it will be decided by free market. Yet the prices didn't become negative 🤔 I wonder why?
doesn't socialism sound the best of paper ?About free markets, you wouldn't be saying that pre 1991 when India was a closed economy. Capitalism has it's evil but it works better than any other model. We just need to ensure the integrity tax distribution to curb capitalist exploitation. Free market + a progressive tax distribution system works. A socialist economy will fail always.
@Wargolldur Deva I believe this is due to the dominance of large "factory" farms, as well as GMOs, and high pesticide usage. The quantity may be up, but in a number of cases quality, taste, and nutritional value are down. Also, many small farmers have been hurting (trump sold them a bill of goods, nothing improved for them). If there's anything in those bills which would allow corporations to take over farms or exert control over farmers, then I say protest, protest, protest!

People who actually understand feminism doesn’t carry this badge of being a feminist.
@Diptasree Choudhuri Exactly , people need to be more open minded because these types of pseudo people come and go. They don't give a damn about righteousness. What they want is to make an impact of their false ideology on the mindset of the people so that they can be ideal role models.
@Diptasree Choudhuri Yeah they are far better role models than these pseudo ones. If one wishes to look up to ideal persons then they should look out for these types of persons which really want to make a better society.
Clearly presented arguments from both sides. However, the last point that our government can (in fact regularly does) limit free market operations in agriculture by banning imports and exports at the expense of Indian farmers should not be held against this particular bill. The fact exists independent of this bill. We can only hope that the tendency will reduce gradually as it only hurts our agriculture industry.
@bakunetsu storm I ask you 2 questions regarding the conception of government giving job and private sectors giving jobs: i) There are 2 choices: a) Where salary is high but job security is not present. b) Where salary is low-moderate, but job security is present. Which one will you choose? ii) As per the clause of WTO that India became a part in 1991, trade barriers are to be removed, and government should not pay subsidies to the farmers. US is also a part of WTO, still it provides their cotton farmers subsidies, and that's why they can sell the cotton at abnormally low prices in global market. But 3rd world countries like India are being pressurised to remove the trade barriers. Is this free and fair globalisation? This question is part of NCERT Class 10 Economics book under chapter globalisation. You can download the NCERT app for verifying.
@bakunetsu storm Also, regarding the per capita income, I can show you an example to prove why it is a deceptive way of measuring the development of a country. Let's consider 2 countries A & B, where 5 people live in each country. In country A, the salary of 5 people are 25,000, 5,000, 2,500, 7,500, 10,000. And in B, the salaries are 10,000, 9,000, 9,000, 10,000, 7,000. How do you understand which one is more developed using per capita income as a factor? A has more per capita income, but the difference is huge, and in B, though the per capita is less, the salary is more or less equal.
@bakunetsu storm I'm too against the license raj. I opt for another form of market system. But yes, take your time and debunk the rhetorics of neo-liberal economy. Here's a link where you may visit for a look. I found the data in the issues to be very authentic. www.rupe-india.org/44/note.html

boosting Co operative farming, legal backing from govt in contract farming for farmers, strict APMC and FCI regulation with regular audit from CAG/local audit bodies, escrow account held by govt in contract farming, strict implication of MSP in contract farming, pressure on easier language of contracts keeping farmers' right (monitoring protection of plant varieties and farmers' right act,2001) in mind. increasing limit(case by case basis with proper legal and mercantile reason) but not abolishing it in essential commodities act As a layman I think these should be in those new farmer bills

@@71espn » Farmers still have a choice to sell their cultivation in open markets rather than APMC infact majority of farmers sell their cultivation in open markets because the APMCs are far from their reach and the transportation cost is high, they can't afford. There are other factors as well for selling their crops in open market. »Middle man, 6 of my known ones are Middle men here. Out of these 6, 2 are Licensed and 4 operate in open market. For 2, it's like govt. job, not much income but secured. Rest 4 are earning more than any of the licensed middle men trust me they are making the dow(pun intended). Farmers sell more in open markets and these middle men rip them off cause of no MSP law there. » Farmers are demanding to abolish the new bill because it will give more benefits to open market middle men(who are already ripping off the farmers) and the farmers will still go empty hands. »Now coming to corruption in APMCs, remember 2 of my relatives, yeah they don't have clean hands as well. Majority of farmers don't know about MSP standards and how it is calculated, the middle men provide them with enough money in hand in the starting but then they exploit them by the help of outsiders in the name of Money Landers for expanding their fields, Urea and other fertilizer providers who sell coal at the price of diamond. Farmers have no choice but sell their crops in open markets from next time and 6 of my known ones are already waiting for them out there. » Farmers who understand these webs and are ready get out of it can't just come out because when they come to know about it they are already too late and trapped drastically, here govt. subsidiary system helps them but the amount of debt, their living expenses, education expenses for their children leads them to a tree and rope and you know what happens then....
At least, to strike a compromise, Govt. need to have a seperate agency to act as a business resource center for the farmers in each state that they can go to; to give them business guidance, teach them business & negotiating skills etc. Without that, it's like throwing them out of the ship and they're saying, they don't even know how to swim.

Guys, watch Faye Desouza's discussion with P. Sainath. He addressed all the three perils of this Bill- which Meghnad presented as pros here- 1. The destruction of APMCs, 2. What CONTRACT farming did to our farmers and our food crops across the country, 3. Essential Commodities act removal now also means black marketing and hoarding in addition to what's happening with the lack of MSP. This is a total mess.

Hay news laundry, Actually, you missed some point on For example, 1.the future and options Let consider reliance (remember jio bulldozer marketing tactics) company buy all future rice bags at a fair price from farmers in India 🇮🇳 , which is not yet to seeded. Which create artificial scarcity in future using it he keep higher prices than MSP which led to chaos in buyer and where let to a shortage in government state-run reaction stores poor people can't eat their meals. 2.There will lose the small and micro scales farmers in India. MSP was not only supported price but also it gives money for buying small things like agriculture equipment and fertilizer keep running. Where private companies never keep on their minds because their holy grail is profit. Which will not support their likelihood hence they turn over the city for there survival. Let to losses in small and microscale farmers and huge migration towards to city and jobs loss.
I still have few doubts is whether 1. do traders need to register and pay some registration at APMCs? 2. If there are no traders left in APMCs will the govt be still there to buy the products at MSP? 3. Just like the prices do MSP also fluctuates based on demand and supply? 4. Can any external third party (not political party) affect or control the prices at which products are traded at APMC? 5. What are the positives observed in Bihar if the policy is already implemented there? Do the farmers their satisfied without the APMCs?
dairy industry in india has ben privatised , so far there is no monopoly the law says MSP won't be removed. private players do not mean just huge corporates , it also includes start ups , individual investors , etc , it is a spectrum. these laws were necessary for india's agricultural sector. only 6% farmers in india enjoy MSP. the excess food bought by food corporation of india from farmers gets stored and when food corporation of india runs out of spaces to store it just gets dumped . Pvt players will have more resources to manage , store , these products , even export .One of the three laws will educate the farmers about new and modern techniques and different variety of crops . Where ever open market has been formed , the ones who are willing to provide better services have gained more profits . Even the farmers can join and form cooporatives .
A few questions..... 1. Why only wheat and paddy crop recieves MSP ?? 2. Why Punjab and Haryana APMC have the highest cess of 8.5%?? 3. Why having APMC since 1965 still ensures only 6% of farmers are getting MSP?? 4. Why can't we promote better FPO/FPC to empower farmer to make better deals rather than always saying that a farmer can't negotiate ???
Didn't this option thing was available earlier before these bill. Farmers were never bound to sell to APMC. The farmers know that APMC & MSP option will disappear soon.

Nope, apmc was always the middleman between corporates and farmers.
@Diptasree Choudhuri There is ur point. BJP til date has only introduced rules which sounds good until it's on papers. Implementing laws successfully has never happened & will not happen in this NDA government cause they themselves are too corrupt to implement it, fairly. Thus, only bringing news laws will not benefit any1 but yea, it will destroy many lives of those who are compatible & adjusted their lives acc to old laws after striving for years. And, if you pay enough attention you'll see that every bill which NDA brings somehow are beneficial for big corporates like Ambani, Adani, etc. "A government by the people for the corporate."
@ India has 80% of farmers with average land size, as stated in video. APMC is good for Farmers who produce on bigger scale. Farmers with lower production of grains & essential foods sell directly in the Mandi/the whole sale market in cities. But, MSP has always saved them from exploitation even in these Mandi cause the buyers also know that they have an option.
@Diptasree Choudhuri No offense, but you're only talking for the 20% of people who belong to Upper Middle class & Wealthy families. That's why ur argument is not valid. We're a nation where 70% of the population is rural. In papers India's literacy level is above 75% but in reality the people who are literate enough to understand the policies of the govt. is not more than 35-40%. More than 170 million people are below poverty level - 2012 survey. I am person who is related to rural areas, too. So, I know how people are struggling there even for 2 meals a day. Our economy gives us no hope that there will be good days for the majority of the people for years. All the thanks to your NDA govt priorities. I will never call you an andhbhakt until you go to a level where u deny the real situations & talk about a hypothetical World, where you dare enough to say on an international stage "Sab Changa Si", when people of your country are dying of hunger, lynchings, anarchy, Rapes have been a new normal, etc. This is Narcissism.
@Diptasree Choudhuri I don't know what led you to believe that NGOs hold that much power. If we look at the current Farmer protest, it's by the union of farmers. Different Unions, whose members are farmers themselves, across the country are protesting against the Farmer's New Laws. If by chance there are some NGOs are also participating, it's not a problem. Also, I don't understand what kind of NGOs you are talking about. If you can name some of them.
Also huge thing is not able to sue companies for not paying the farmers. All liability is written out of the bill. This is what killed sugarcane and other farming practices in punjab. Only rice and wheat now since they have msp and farmers dont get exploited by the companies that have prime minister in there pocket.
Anyone who thinks "let the markets decide" "sounds good in theory" needs to do a tonne of reading on welfare states and free markets and its operations. If you're talking about a critical reform in a field such as agriculture and that too in the context of country like India I'd expect your reasoning to be slightly better than "might actually turn out to be good." We all saw what happened with the pulse prices back in 2015-16. “All the government did was, paint the entire trading community as hoarders and black marketers. The government must facilitate trade instead of trying to micro regulate it during a crisis such as this,” said Prem Kogta, president of the Jalgaon Dal Mill Owners’ Association. "Not a single action was taken against the big corporate retail chains found selling pulses at higher rates, while importers and traders working on wholesale prices - that remained lower than retail prices all through 2015 - faced the brunt. “Chains like Big Bazaar, Reliance Fresh did not face any music at all while the importers and miller were hounded,” said Navin Bhai, former secretary of Grain Rice and Wholesale Merchants’ Association (Mumbai). (source - the_hindu) You think after this "liberalisation of agro produce" markets are not going to exploit the producer?! Comeon Meghnad.
Also don't you think contract farming before the start of a season could be disastrous for the farmer? As natural disasters and other factors cannot be predicted. What would happen in such a case? Would the contract then be voided or will the farmer have to pay a fine to the corporate sponsor for not supplying farm produce on time? Or will the corporate sponsor usurp that farmer's land? The bills are very vague (probably on purpose) on these points.
Free markets exist in theory because the fact of oligopoly power is nor factored in. Take the case of Ola and Uber.( Also, remember Milton Friedman was paid by large corporations). Btw, the introduction of a base price or at least an indication by the government of their willingness to introduce one in case oligopolies start their round of cartel formation outside the mandi is the only safeguard I can envisage here. That's the crux of most farmers demands. Also the PepsiCo controversy still lives on in the memory of farmers in Punjab and Haryana and other places. So that explains their scepticism towards contract farming. Also in places like West Bengal and Kerala where land reforms were implemented is it really possible for Contract Farming to take shape at the stroke of a pen? This system could have only benefited most farmers from these regions if cooperative systems were first established and then they were allowed to profit from and through the forces of the market.
The very fact PM assured that MSP will continue and the bills are for farmers welfare is reason enough to oppose it. We have dozens of examples what happens when he promise Achche Din!
this farm bill would have worked if first govt of India would have provided some way so THAT FARMERS CAN HAVE A WAREHOUSE WHERE THEY CAN STORE THE CROPS till its sold at a profitable price. FURTHER IF ITS A LAW THAT A MSP has to be given then they would feel more secure. sure the crops in India are not of very high quality but that does not mean that government would put such a pressure on farmers who are already living in distress.
The bills are good as middleman will not make cartel now as it will increase the compitition in the market. As we know that stories of farmer's selling 2 rupees tomatoes in apmc as big player will not take tomatoes 2 ruppes. The protest are mostly from farmer's union and regional leaders who had profit of interest in apmc. As far as bihar is concerned it had small land holdings and high crime rate therefore no big private player wants to invest,So we can't compare bihar to whole india. So I am not saying it is best and it has some Lupe holes but we have to start from anywhere. After disaster of demonisation it is good because I came from farmer's family. And I know how bad are apmc now in india and corruption and cartilization stole the market and farmers get nothing as there are middle man in middle man's, so it becomes long chain of middlemen and destroys farmers.
logic dies 1000 times when u say for not comparing bihar so, according to ur logic how abt comparing it with maharastra me too agree that free market economy is good bt zero competition leads to monopoly which is more dangerous to socialist economy In our we dont have much competion in market nd may also result in foreign players hijacking the market imp notes agri sector is most dominant sector for us how can u pass bill without consultations from concerned players nd ur just disrespecting all the farmers protesting by labeling them as APMC
They aren't removing the middleman. There is still a middle man between the farmer and the consumer. They are putting a middle man of their choice and such a powerful middle man that when the farmers get exploited no one will listen to them. Just like the Modi Government isn't listening to them right now.
@@mohammedsaif4273 look brother, in maharashtra the local regional leaders who are working for farmers reform are supporting the bills,as they said they will now get good prices of sugarcane. And it also leads farmers to overcom form overdependency on sugarcane. As far as bihar is concerned and you are saying my logic is not right that means you do not know bihar and its politics,even though sushil modi has said that big scale industries are not possible in bihar due to small holidings and crime rate. And in any other state other than haryana and punjab there was not any major protests. And it will not decrease the compitition and no private player can take 2 ruppes tomatos and farmers can also sell their products in apmc also. Influence of foreign players is also said at time of lpg(liberalisation,privatisation and globalisation) reforms 1991. And if foreign player comes it will be good for farmers as it will increase the competition and increase the prices of crops. And far as on the question on passing the bill without consulting I agree with you it is not democratic and against the decent. Please reply your views if possible. And one small suggestion please read the article of indian express and especially the hindu newspaper. it will help you to understand the geography of each states and their politics also.
But breaking the Kisan-aartiya i.e commission agent circle which are going on from 100-200 years will severely affect both sides, at least for some coming years.Its just like uprooting a system to install new one and it will surely affect.

Its very rare to exploitation of farmer happens. In Karnataka, private party has been already buying goods directly from farmers. All online retailers are buying the goods directly.. Let me give an example which we do in our farm. Lays company gives contract to grow potatoes. And there would be agreement between farmer and lays company. Where they will tell how much they would be paying irrespective of demand on end day. In this case seeds are also provided by company itself for free as they may need specific breed of potato. And farmers know for much they need to sell there goods to make profits. If they feel price is not suitable to make profit they would never enter the contract. Don't think farmers are dumb enough not under stand this. They may not under legallity of contract but thet understand economics behind the farming.
@@mmpasupati The problem isn't that but the government should ensure that there are numerous number of buyers available in the market. if they can do that then this bill is successful. I'm also from Karnataka and we also have a farm and not everything is rainbows and sprinkles as you point it out to be. Often farmers won't have the monetary backing to grow crops on their own. This is where exploitation can take place if buyers are very few. They can force them to undertake contracts and sell at a price which makes agriculture barely profitable (for the farmer, not the company). What needs to happen here is the government should create numerous buyers in the market in order to ensure that a monopsony-esque situation won't take place. If a few MNCs make up a huge stake in the buyer's market it will lead to the food security issues that is seen in African liberalised farmer economies. We need to create indigenous buyer's demand in numerous places in order to ensure that this transition takes place smoothly.
When they say #Historic.. For me it sounds like #Disaster And no one needs to understand #farmbill, if farmers say NO , it should be and it should remain as NO
@Krishnan Unni Madathil I had never involved in misinformation....this is what I liked and this is what I support...I agree there are some +ves in the bill but at the same time there are some negatives too... My opinion is gov should clarify the doubts of farmers and pass the bill with complete transparency
Nothing good ever came out of a sentence that started with, "And no one needs to understand." Not all farmers are protesting. My family is farmers and they're pretty okay with it.
"No one needs to understand" You are suggesting people should stop applying their minds and protest/support something without even understanding it. If lazyness was measured in metres, yours my friend would be taller than Burj Khalifa
bro they buy rice from use for Rs 14 per kg and sell for Rs 100 per kg... They gives us Rs 14 because its MSP which is in govt mandi... Now when private players wll come they wll give use Rs 20 in starting for 1-2 seasons we wll sell them very happily and wll not sell to govt. Mandi for 1-2 seasons... The govt mandi wll get closed as they r in very bad shape and govt also want them to close because they don't want to give MSP to farmers... When in 2-3 years govt mandi get close then private play wll buy our rice at rs9 or Rs 10 because we can't go to govt mandi they r closed... Monopoly bro... Then in 2 act of this bill they can store as much as they can... they wll do holding and increasing of price and sell you the same rice in Rs 150...
Liberals would never support communism, or any other authoritarian regime. So not sure what you have put those two together. As a liberal I have to agree that the goal the government is pursuing is good the reforms will harm allot of people who rely on farming. The underlying idea is that small scale farming is unsustainable, as they will not be able to compete with big farms "corporations". The government want's to quickly reform the farming sector with disregard to what will happen to farmers. In my opinion the government should create a government farming fund that would issue out loans and grants to farmers for land acquisition and modernization and give out additional subsidies to those farmers that would want to sell their land and offer them financial incentive to change profession. The government should also prevent land monopolization by judge corporations that want to enter or increase their hold on the farming market. If the reforms are done right, farms will become larger and more modernized and thus will be able to produce more produce that could be sold at cheaper prices. The farmer will earn more, the food will be cheaper. The government should not leave behind those that decide (or in a worst case scenario will be forced by the market) to sell their land. These people can start businesses that provide services for farmers. Poland went threw similar reforms and has done fairly well with it's farming market. The government in Poland has oversight over the farming industry as provides financial incentive (lower taxes, grants and low interest loans) to farmers. Both extreme solutions will be damaging to people. The current system is unsustainable as small farmers produce very little and thus cannot compete on an open market without government subsidies. Even with the subsidies the farmers earn very little which doesn't allow them to invest in modernization. The liberalization of the farming industry will force many farmers out of business as big players will outperform and outcompete small farmers that will be forced to sell their land and figure out by themselves what they should do now. The latter solution wan't to quickly change the faming market no matter the human cost - Margaret Tatcher style. This will have quick beneficial results for the country but many farmers will be left to fend for themselves. Furthermore there is a risk that uncontrolled land acquisition fulled by corruption will create a handful of huge corporations that control and dominate the market, destroying even large independent farmers. Reforms are necessary but they have to take into account Hunan lives that they will directly affect, and not only the big picture and macro data. Good luck!
I come from a farming family in Coastal Andhra and have been involved indirectly with farming since my childhood. I am no BJP supporter (not after the way they treated AP after division). But the reality of the government controlled Mandi is that the poor farmer is usually forced to sell at whatever price the broker cartel at the Mandi decides. MSP usually comes when government procures directly through the FCI etc. For perishable items like brinjal lemon etc he is forced to sell because he cannot take the produce back home. For items like Rice I cannot sell outside the Mandi by law. I cannot sell to another district leave aside another state even when the price is much higher. The government usually forces the farmer to sell locally at low prices so that they can supply subsidized rice to urban consumers or to keep the rice price low in cities. I used to fret but could do nothing. I don't know how the farm bills will affect farmers in Punjab but I am happy that I can now sell anywhere in India and to whomever I want. And nobody can force me to sell. I can always sell at the government Mandi also. I am very happy with this new situation as are most genuine farmers I know in Coastal AP. I feel the presenter has never actually gone farming personally in any significant manner or he would be talking differently.
According to bakths, *"70 SAAL MEIN KUCH NAHI HUA"* BUT ✓ Even before Modi was born, India had prepared the world's best Constitution and started its implementation from January 26, 1950. ✓ When Modi was just six months old, India had hosted the first Asian Games in New Delhi and Jawaharlal Nehru introduced India's first five-year plan. ✓ Before he turned one, the IIT Kharagpur was established in 1951. ✓ When Modi turned two, India held its first general elections in 1952. ✓ Before Modi celebrated his 4th birthday, India created the Atomic Energy Establishment, Trombay (AEET). It was later renamed as Bhabha Atomic Research Centre. ✓ When Modi was just 11 years old, Indian Army liberated Goa and French-ruled Pondicherry , became part of India as a Union Territory. ✓ By 1961, India had established 2 IIMs and five IITs. ✓ By the time Modi turned 13 years, India had built Bhakra Dam ,Himachal Pradesh. ✓ Modi was just 14-year-old when Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) was formed. ✓ When Modi was about 15 years old, India's had fought and won the second war with Pakistan in 1965. ✓ When modi was learning to ride bicycle, india had already started manufacturing aeroplanes and helicopters. ✓ When Modi was about 17 years old, the foundation of the Green Revolution was laid and farmers harvested the first crop of high-yielding wheat. ✓ When Modi was 19-year-old in 1969, ISRO was founded, nationalized 14 banks,Tarapur Atomic Power Station became operational. ✓ When Modi turned 21 in 1971, India was fighting its third war with Pakistan. ✓ When he was only 24, India conducted peaceful nuclear test at Pokhran in 1974. ✓ Long before Modi became the Prime Minister, India had already taken the initiatives for Chandrayan, Mangalyan, GSLV, Mono Rail, Nuclear Sub-Marine, Agni Missile, Chetak, MIG, Arjun Tank, Sukhoi, Dhanush, etc. Therefore, India WAS a powerful nation with a robust economy before modi gov. During the last 70 years India has grown tremendously and all ex prime ministers have taken brilliant decisions due to which india is now one among the biggest powers in asia . Modi and his bhakts would not have raised the question '70 Saal Mein Kuch Nahi Hua' if they would have read history.
You forgot about 1962 debacle with China, that happened because of Impractical, unrealistic policy of "hindi cheeni bhai bhai " . Even after annexation of Tibet ,India did not prepare for possible confrontation with China . Nehru ji was a Hyper pacifict who did not not believe in defence preparedness . Also Why did we have to fight thrice with Pakistan ? That is because during 1947 half of Jand K was left with Pakistan despite India winning in 1947 war . If every thing was so nice ,why did Indian economy hit rock bottom in 1990 ? Kindly read about licence permit raaj . How can you forget militancy in Punjab , Indira Gandhi 's support to Bhinderawala ,1984 anti sikh riots , Terrorism in Jand K ,Exodus of Kashmiri Hindus ? Ofcourse godd initiatives were also taken but these blunders cannot be ignored . Lal Bahadur Shastri , P V narasimha rao were the best PM that India had .
Now try writing down the blunders done by governments in those 70 years. I can promise you, that list will be 10 times bigger than which you just mentioned above.
Licensed middlemen are such saints! They have always worked and nothing but for the welfare of the ppl. They have never arm twisted farmers to anything. We don't need no reforms. Also, this reform has been discussed and in contention for more than 10 years. Should have atleast been discussed 10 more years before its implementation.

Opposition says its opinion was denied, but there's a video of Kapil Sibbals speech in the parliament speaking abt the removal of middleman. Also Congress had included removal of dependence on APMCs in their manifesto.
@@alaapsarkar It will most likely create a monopsony in the market where the buyers are very few (MNCs and huge companies). This will force farmers to lower their prices in order to sell their crops to the buyers available. This is what Meghnad means by exploitation as when there are only few buyers and thousands of sellers prices might go too low for the agricultural practice to be sustainable. The middlemen was made in order to prevent this type of exploitation but bureaucracy without transparency made APMCs into a sort of exploiter too. In order for this bill to be successful, govt has to ensure there are number of buyers available to sell these produces to. This way farmers can sell their produce at a fair price as they aren't force to sell to a select few. How can they do this? Mujhe nahi patha yaar main to economist expert nahi hoon thoda padha hua hoon.
@@alaapsarkar If I have to venture however, they have to put a limit on mass hoarding on very huge MNCs (like the JioMart which will be coming soon) this way they cannot form a huge stake of the buyer's market and create the monopsony that I had mentioned in my previous comment. They need to regulate this aspect or else we'll become like the agricultural practices of African countries where liberalisation has led to food security issues(Case study of Senegal and comapnies forcing farmers to grow cashew nuts [I don't remember correctly if that is the crop] ).
@@harshithh.s.7513 Regarding your 1st point there is already a monopsony which are the authorised mandi traders. This bill doesn't remove anything, mandis are still there, government can still buy at MSP and now the farmer can also sell their produce in other markets. This bill breaks monopsony. Before this bill the farmer could only sell their produce to their allotted mandi now they can sell at mandis or to anyone else. If they don't get a fair price from the open market they can go to the mandi and sell at MSP, that option is still there. I need to look up on your second point.
Glad u were not biased on your take.. we just need unbiased news in these times. If there is proper regulation of this with farmers not being taken advantage of then I tnk the farmers will be hugely benefitted by this bill.

@@aseemrk come on , 13 ??
While you covered most of the points of the bill. You missed a very important point that resolution of contracts etc will not be done by courts but via the SDM. As you know our farmers are so game with contract law and SDMs in India are so honest. This will work perfectly in favour of the farmers whenever an issue with a corporation arises.
Also pls update the video regarding the other very imp. Bill - the Essential commodities act. Doing away with it -Wouldn’t that lead to even more hoarding & blackmarketing by big biz?? Chronology...
@Geetha Rani M There isn't much option. If you're getting shit prices currently and someone comes and gives you better option then surely they'll be tempted. There are many who barely make enough to sustain their family, won't you be tempted to go for such an offer. Maybe you've never seen/worked on a farm so let me give you another analogy. At your job you barely make enough to sustain you and your family, now a corporate comes with a better job offer with much better pay, are you not going to take it?
@Pasta They have to give a higher rate initially to tempt the farmers. Its once that the farmers are trapped in the contracts that they can change things. Since you're giving the example of Canada and US, read up on the history of how it worked over there. Initially it worked quite well over there it was much later with consolidation of the existing companies etc that things began to change.

Sorry you are mistaken. It is just not about MSP, but it also includes contract farming, no tax from private buyers, and removing some foods from essential foods. There are more intricacies apart from these points.
Then comes issue of hoarding as there will be no law or legislations that will govern the private players as they will not be bound by law or government support.

I have spoken with many real farmers regarding farm laws.
Mostly they compare it with ola and uber model of business.
Their biggest fear is:
The corporates will give very good rates initially, then all the farmers will sell only to corporates.
Then as a result of no business in APMC yards, APMC will collapse, as such even MSP will collapse.
Once the competition with government is eliminated.
Only then the corporates shall indulge in exploitation of farmers and the consumers.
By rigging the rates of commodities according to their wish, because of their storage capacity, and in-between collaboration amongst many corporates.
Its a logical scenario according to me.
Solution could be:
The government can give assurance that it will never stop MSP and keep on running APMC by subsidy for next 25 years.

Why did you exclude the fact that msp is not a legal provision? Also, it was promised in an election manifesto that it would repeal the agricultural produce market committees act and make trade in agricultural produce - including export and Inter state trade - free from all restrictions. Why then are we raising barriers when in principle all of us agree it's good for the farmers? APMC is not going anywhere either, so everyone has an option to sell there.

Thank you for this valuable information. This is happening all around the world. It is about disapropriation of farmers and humanity at large. And privatisation through coporate business which have no understanding of life or respect of nature or humanity. In Germany government is making so many stipulations that farmers are close to insolvency as they cannot do all the investments the government is asking for. Once farming is stopped in Germany - of course food needs to be imported. This way they can make the world dependent by "owning the food chain" they can "control" humanity. Vandana Shiva has brought this scheme to light and she is a woman of wisdom and foresight as well as fortitude. Thank you and God bless you. May the true people of earth rise in love and truth and may we live in harmony with the sacred planet.
Must say, every time to oppose just to oppose is will lead country no-where. I know some of the economists also favored these bills. Anyway, without private players, in airlines to cellular sectors, where we might have been, we all know. Anyway, for such a big & complex country, not everyone can be made happy.
So if Punjab & Haryana protest & no other major states are protesting then might be political influence. Else, entire country is mostly into farming. So country should have been burning if all are not happy with it!
Meghnad has been quite fair to the proposed laws. Contract farming itself had been recommended by MS Swaminathan. The point is that since some of these reforms have already been tried out and didn't work out as expected, coz you know, the world is not ideal, doubts regarding their implementation and discussion of steps (with stakeholders) required to correct them are pending. The way the govt went about this is so undemocratic and farmers are clearly unconvinced is the problem with this. Last I checked, India is not an authoritarian state as per its constitution. Remember folks bold does not necessarily equate to wise.
Thank you , this is exactly what I was looking for last evening , to understand the farm bill better before passing any judgements/comments . This was helpful and it’s strange that no news channel or website has put effort into explaining it to us !

Dear Sir: Agreed that Punjab and Haryana farmers are doing well and they want the current STATUS QUO to continue. But there are other farmers in the rest of INDIA who want to scale up and do something. For example, KERALA FARMERS are all ready to scale up on JACK FRUIT POWDER and are making arrangements for cold storage system which will be made available through FPO (farmer producer organizations). Like this there are many many examples. If Punjab and Haryana are happy with STATUS QUO then so be it.

@Wargolldur Deva I believe this is due to the dominance of large "factory" farms, as well as GMOs, and high pesticide usage. The quantity may be up, but in a number of cases quality, taste, and nutritional value are down.

Clearly presented arguments from both sides. However, the last point that our government can (in fact regularly does) limit free market operations in agriculture by banning imports and exports at the expense of Indian farmers should not be held against this particular bill. The fact exists independent of this bill. We can only hope that the tendency will reduce gradually as it only hurts our agriculture industry.
U didn't catch correctly private players will not pay the taxes whereas APMC has to pay ..
@bakunetsu storm The bootlicking government has the term "business incentive" to ensure that the corporates who fund them do not have to pay tax
@bakunetsu storm I ask you 2 questions regarding the conception of government giving job and private sectors giving jobs:
i) There are 2 choices: a) Where salary is high but job security is not present. b) Where salary is low-moderate, but job security is present. Which one will you choose?
ii) As per the clause of WTO that India became a part in 1991, trade barriers are to be removed, and government should not pay subsidies to the farmers. US is also a part of WTO, still it provides their cotton farmers subsidies, and that's why they can sell the cotton at abnormally low prices in global market. But 3rd world countries like India are being pressurised to remove the trade barriers. Is this free and fair globalisation? This question is part of NCERT Class 10 Economics book under chapter globalisation. You can download the NCERT app for verifying.
@bakunetsu storm Also, regarding the per capita income, I can show you an example to prove why it is a deceptive way of measuring the development of a country.
Let's consider 2 countries A & B, where 5 people live in each country. In country A, the salary of 5 people are 25,000, 5,000, 2,500, 7,500, 10,000. And in B, the salaries are 10,000, 9,000, 9,000, 10,000, 7,000. How do you understand which one is more developed using per capita income as a factor? A has more per capita income, but the difference is huge, and in B, though the per capita is less, the salary is more or less equal.
@bakunetsu storm I'm too against the license raj. I opt for another form of market system. But yes, take your time and debunk the rhetorics of neo-liberal economy.
Here's a link where you may visit for a look. I found the data in the issues to be very authentic.

@bakunetsu storm do a bit of research on the condition of famers in the United States
More than half of the states in country don’t have APMCs/ or have already passed Bill to sell outside of APMCs anyways.
If APMCs and MSPs are here to stay and the new Bill is providing additional option, I’m failing to still understand what the problem is. ? What am i missing. Farmers can continue to seek in APMCs - what’s the challenge.
I know, it’s a a question from partial information most of the citizens have. Just trying to get the macro picture

Living in a fools paradise......
boosting Co operative farming,
legal backing from govt in contract farming for farmers,
strict APMC and FCI regulation with regular audit from CAG/local audit bodies,
escrow account held by govt in contract farming,
strict implication of MSP in contract farming,
pressure on easier language of contracts keeping farmers' right (monitoring protection of plant varieties and farmers' right act,2001) in mind.
increasing limit(case by case basis with proper legal and mercantile reason) but not abolishing it in essential commodities act
As a layman I think these should be in those new farmer bills
I loved it when u said the 3rd bill is still pending till I record & the date of recording was displayed on the side.
Nice!
Once I went to my local sabzi market and saw a famer selling vegetables, he was selling freshest and greenest vegetables, and at lowest prices, and that did tasted better when cooked. In future I would love to buy from farmers directly.

» Farmers still have a choice to sell their cultivation in open markets rather than APMC infact majority of farmers sell their cultivation in open markets because the APMCs are far from their reach and the transportation cost is high, they can't afford. There are other factors as well for selling their crops in open market.
»Middle man, 6 of my known ones are Middle men here. Out of these 6, 2 are Licensed and 4 operate in open market. For 2, it's like govt. job, not much income but secured. Rest 4 are earning more than any of the licensed middle men trust me they are making the dow(pun intended). Farmers sell more in open markets and these middle men rip them off cause of no MSP law there.
» Farmers are demanding to abolish the new bill because it will give more benefits to open market middle men(who are already ripping off the farmers) and the farmers will still go empty hands.
»Now coming to corruption in APMCs, remember 2 of my relatives, yeah they don't have clean hands as well. Majority of farmers don't know about MSP standards and how it is calculated, the middle men provide them with enough money in hand in the starting but then they exploit them by the help of outsiders in the name of Money Landers for expanding their fields, Urea and other fertilizer providers who sell coal at the price of diamond. Farmers have no choice but sell their crops in open markets from next time and 6 of my known ones are already waiting for them out there.
» Farmers who understand these webs and are ready get out of it can't just come out because when they come to know about it they are already too late and trapped drastically, here govt. subsidiary system helps them but the amount of debt, their living expenses, education expenses for their children leads them to a tree and rope and you know what happens then....
Please release this in hindi, as most of the farmers do not understand english.🙏
Most of farmers knows their stand.
Farmers are already very informative it's us who are lacking
@@bhardwajparth 👍👍👍
At least, to strike a compromise, Govt. need to have a seperate agency to act as a business resource center for the farmers in each state that they can go to; to give them business guidance, teach them business & negotiating skills etc.
Without that, it's like throwing them out of the ship and they're saying, they don't even know how to swim. Govt. They are the backbone of Indian society, Govt. needs to have understanding, empathy & compromise

As an American, I found India television to be quite different, {read very strange and odd}. Thank you so much for explaining this farm bill. You did an excellent job. And I also love your humor. Especially when you cough and said Pakistan real fast. That was very funny. I look forward to seeing more of your videos. And please know that your audience isn't just an India. But worldwide.

Guys, watch Faye Desouza's discussion with P. Sainath. He addressed all the three perils of this Bill- which Meghnad presented as pros here- 1. The destruction of APMCs, 2. What CONTRACT farming did to our farmers and our food crops across the country, 3. Essential Commodities act removal now also means black marketing and hoarding in addition to what's happening with the lack of MSP. This is a total mess.

Hay news laundry,
Actually, you missed some point on
For example,
1.the future and options
Let consider reliance (remember jio bulldozer marketing tactics) company buy all future rice bags at a fair price from farmers in India 🇮🇳 , which is not yet to seeded. Which create artificial scarcity in future using it he keep higher prices than MSP which led to chaos in buyer and where let to a shortage in government state-run reaction stores poor people can't eat their meals.
2.There will lose the small and micro scales farmers in India.
MSP was not only supported price but also it gives money for buying small things like agriculture equipment and fertilizer keep running. Where private companies never keep on their minds because their holy grail is profit.
Which will not support their likelihood hence they turn over the city for there survival. Let to losses in small and microscale farmers and huge migration towards to city and jobs loss.
@subhadeep mandal
Will I mentioned it jio marketing campaign
I still have few doubts is whether
1. do traders need to register and pay some registration at APMCs?
2. If there are no traders left in APMCs will the govt be still there to buy the products at MSP?
3. Just like the prices do MSP also fluctuates based on demand and supply?
4. Can any external third party (not political party) affect or control the prices at which products are traded at APMC?
5. What are the positives observed in Bihar if the policy is already implemented there? Do the farmers their satisfied without the APMCs?
Was just waiting for your video on this topic 🔥🙏
dairy industry in india has ben privatised , so far there is no monopoly
the law says MSP won't be removed.
private players do not mean just huge corporates , it also includes start ups , individual investors , etc , it is a spectrum.
these laws were necessary for india's agricultural sector.
only 6% farmers in india enjoy MSP.
the excess food bought by food corporation of india from farmers gets stored and when food corporation of india runs out of spaces to store it just gets dumped . Pvt players will have more resources to manage , store , these products , even export .One of the three laws will educate the farmers about new and modern techniques and different variety of crops .
Where ever open market has been formed , the ones who are willing to provide better services have gained more profits .
Even the farmers can join and form cooporatives .
Says "They will do it to teach a particular country a lesson" and coughs 😂 epic
it's a stale style of joke - perhaps epicly new to your ears!
A few questions.....
1. Why only wheat and paddy crop recieves MSP ??
2. Why Punjab and Haryana APMC have the highest cess of 8.5%??
3. Why having APMC since 1965 still ensures only 6% of farmers are getting MSP??
4. Why can't we promote better FPO/FPC to empower farmer to make better deals rather than always saying that a farmer can't negotiate ???
Wrong on few aspects. For example: Price Discovery will still happen
This bill is not disaster nor historical or game changer. India needs our own R&D high yields and oil seeds farming revolution

TATA is Investing in BigBasket . So They can Make Farmers rich, selling their Produce (Products) abroad.
Didn't this option thing was available earlier before these bill.
Farmers were never bound to sell to APMC. The farmers know that APMC & MSP option will disappear soon.
Nope, apmc was always the middleman between corporates and farmers.
@Diptasree Choudhuri There is ur point. BJP til date has only introduced rules which sounds good until it's on papers.
Implementing laws successfully has never happened & will not happen in this NDA government cause they themselves are too corrupt to implement it, fairly. Thus, only bringing news laws will not benefit any1 but yea, it will destroy many lives of those who are compatible & adjusted their lives acc to old laws after striving for years.
And, if you pay enough attention you'll see that every bill which NDA brings somehow are beneficial for big corporates like Ambani, Adani, etc. "A government by the people for the corporate."
@ India has 80% of farmers with average land size, as stated in video. APMC is good for Farmers who produce on bigger scale.
Farmers with lower production of grains & essential foods sell directly in the Mandi/the whole sale market in cities. But, MSP has always saved them from exploitation even in these Mandi cause the buyers also know that they have an option.
@Diptasree Choudhuri No offense, but you're only talking for the 20% of people who belong to Upper Middle class & Wealthy families. That's why ur argument is not valid.
We're a nation where 70% of the population is rural. In papers India's literacy level is above 75% but in reality the people who are literate enough to understand the policies of the govt. is not more than 35-40%. More than 170 million people are below poverty level - 2012 survey.
I am person who is related to rural areas, too. So, I know how people are struggling there even for 2 meals a day. Our economy gives us no hope that there will be good days for the majority of the people for years. All the thanks to your NDA govt priorities. I will never call you an andhbhakt until you go to a level where u deny the real situations & talk about a hypothetical World, where you dare enough to say on an international stage "Sab Changa Si", when people of your country are dying of hunger, lynchings, anarchy, Rapes have been a new normal, etc. This is Narcissism.
@Diptasree Choudhuri I don't know what led you to believe that NGOs hold that much power.
If we look at the current Farmer protest, it's by the union of farmers. Different Unions, whose members are farmers themselves, across the country are protesting against the Farmer's New Laws. If by chance there are some NGOs are also participating, it's not a problem.
Also, I don't understand what kind of NGOs you are talking about. If you can name some of them.
Also huge thing is not able to sue companies for not paying the farmers. All liability is written out of the bill. This is what killed sugarcane and other farming practices in punjab. Only rice and wheat now since they have msp and farmers dont get exploited by the companies that have prime minister in there pocket.
Anyone who thinks "let the markets decide" "sounds good in theory" needs to do a tonne of reading on welfare states and free markets and its operations. If you're talking about a critical reform in a field such as agriculture and that too in the context of country like India I'd expect your reasoning to be slightly better than "might actually turn out to be good."
We all saw what happened with the pulse prices back in 2015-16.
“All the government did was, paint the entire trading community as hoarders and black marketers. The government must facilitate trade instead of trying to micro regulate it during a crisis such as this,” said Prem Kogta, president of the Jalgaon Dal Mill Owners’ Association.
"Not a single action was taken against the big corporate retail chains found selling pulses at higher rates, while importers and traders working on wholesale prices - that remained lower than retail prices all through 2015 - faced the brunt. “Chains like Big Bazaar, Reliance Fresh did not face any music at all while the importers and miller were hounded,” said Navin Bhai, former secretary of Grain Rice and Wholesale Merchants’ Association (Mumbai).

You think after this "liberalisation of agro produce" markets are not going to exploit the producer?! Comeon Meghnad.
Also don't you think contract farming before the start of a season could be disastrous for the farmer? As natural disasters and other factors cannot be predicted. What would happen in such a case? Would the contract then be voided or will the farmer have to pay a fine to the corporate sponsor for not supplying farm produce on time? Or will the corporate sponsor usurp that farmer's land? The bills are very vague (probably on purpose) on these points.
Free markets exist in theory because the fact of oligopoly power is nor factored in. Take the case of Ola and Uber.( Also, remember Milton Friedman was paid by large corporations). Btw, the introduction of a base price or at least an indication by the government of their willingness to introduce one in case oligopolies start their round of cartel formation outside the mandi is the only safeguard I can envisage here. That's the crux of most farmers demands. Also the PepsiCo controversy still lives on in the memory of farmers in Punjab and Haryana and other places. So that explains their scepticism towards contract farming. Also in places like West Bengal and Kerala where land reforms were implemented is it really possible for Contract Farming to take shape at the stroke of a pen? This system could have only benefited most farmers from these regions if cooperative systems were first established and then they were allowed to profit from and through the forces of the market.
One of the simplest and the best explanations I heard so far with all the satire and humor. Thanks. 😁
The very fact PM assured that MSP will continue and the bills are for farmers welfare is reason enough to oppose it. We have dozens of examples what happens when he promise Achche Din!

Finally.. An ad on this channel to watch without skipping... 💛
Anchor is nuts. Excellent presentation...
But he is telling truth....
this farm bill would have worked if first govt of India would have provided some way so THAT FARMERS CAN HAVE A WAREHOUSE WHERE THEY CAN STORE THE CROPS till its sold at a profitable price. FURTHER IF ITS A LAW THAT A MSP has to be given then they would feel more secure. sure the crops in India are not of very high quality but that does not mean that government would put such a pressure on farmers who are already living in distress.
The bills are good as middleman will not make cartel now as it will increase the compitition in the market.
As we know that stories of farmer's selling 2 rupees tomatoes in apmc as big player will not take tomatoes 2 ruppes.
The protest are mostly from farmer's union and regional leaders who had profit of interest in apmc.
As far as bihar is concerned it had small land holdings and high crime rate therefore no big private player wants to invest,So we can't compare bihar to whole india.
So I am not saying it is best and it has some Lupe holes but we have to start from anywhere.
After disaster of demonisation it is good because I came from farmer's family. And I know how bad are apmc now in india and corruption and cartilization stole the market and farmers get nothing as there are middle man in middle man's, so it becomes long chain of middlemen and destroys farmers.
logic dies 1000 times when u say for not comparing bihar
so, according to ur logic how abt comparing it with maharastra
me too agree that free market economy is good
bt zero competition leads to monopoly which is more dangerous to socialist economy
In our we dont have much competion in market nd
may also result in foreign players hijacking the market
imp notes agri sector is most dominant sector for us
how can u pass bill without consultations from concerned players
nd ur just disrespecting all the farmers protesting by labeling them as APMC
They aren't removing the middleman. There is still a middle man between the farmer and the consumer. They are putting a middle man of their choice and such a powerful middle man that when the farmers get exploited no one will listen to them.
Just like the Modi Government isn't listening to them right now.
@@mohammedsaif4273 look brother, in maharashtra the local regional leaders who are working for farmers reform are supporting the bills,as they said they will now get good prices of sugarcane.
And it also leads farmers to overcom form overdependency on sugarcane.
As far as bihar is concerned and you are saying my logic is not right that means you do not know bihar and its politics,even though sushil modi has said that big scale industries are not possible in bihar due to small holidings and crime rate.
And in any other state other than haryana and punjab there was not any major protests.
And it will not decrease the compitition and no private player can take 2 ruppes tomatos and farmers can also sell their products in apmc also.
Influence of foreign players is also said at time of lpg(liberalisation,privatisation and globalisation) reforms 1991.
And if foreign player comes it will be good for farmers as it will increase the competition and increase the prices of crops.
And far as on the question on passing the bill without consulting I agree with you it is not democratic and against the decent.
Please reply your views if possible.
And one small suggestion please read the article of indian express and especially the hindu newspaper. it will help you to understand the geography of each states and their politics also.
Big corporates won't exploit farmers like middle-man atleast .It will uplift their socio-economic condition.
But breaking the Kisan-aartiya i.e commission agent circle which are going on from 100-200 years will severely affect both sides, at least for some coming years.Its just like uprooting a system to install new one and it will surely affect.
@@rdsc.455 No ,the system would be there just the farmer will get option ,if he wanna opt it or not.And it would increase negotiating powers of farmer.
Jitne bhole hain app.
Very informative with a generous amount of sarcasm ! Ouch Modi ji ouchh
It's really sounds good that they are giving our farmers an option, but won't it allow the Corporations to devise some way out to exploit our farmers ?
Its very rare to exploitation of farmer happens. In Karnataka, private party has been already buying goods directly from farmers. All online retailers are buying the goods directly.. Let me give an example which we do in our farm. Lays company gives contract to grow potatoes. And there would be agreement between farmer and lays company. Where they will tell how much they would be paying irrespective of demand on end day. In this case seeds are also provided by company itself for free as they may need specific breed of potato. And farmers know for much they need to sell there goods to make profits. If they feel price is not suitable to make profit they would never enter the contract. Don't think farmers are dumb enough not under stand this. They may not under legallity of contract but thet understand economics behind the farming.
@@mmpasupati The problem isn't that but the government should ensure that there are numerous number of buyers available in the market. if they can do that then this bill is successful. I'm also from Karnataka and we also have a farm and not everything is rainbows and sprinkles as you point it out to be. Often farmers won't have the monetary backing to grow crops on their own. This is where exploitation can take place if buyers are very few. They can force them to undertake contracts and sell at a price which makes agriculture barely profitable (for the farmer, not the company). What needs to happen here is the government should create numerous buyers in the market in order to ensure that a monopsony-esque situation won't take place. If a few MNCs make up a huge stake in the buyer's market it will lead to the food security issues that is seen in African liberalised farmer economies. We need to create indigenous buyer's demand in numerous places in order to ensure that this transition takes place smoothly.

@Krishnan Unni Madathil I had never involved in misinformation....this is what I liked and this is what I support...I agree there are some +ves in the bill but at the same time there are some negatives too...
My opinion is gov should clarify the doubts of farmers and pass the bill with complete transparency
@Krishnan Unni Madathil and I'm not taking about anyone else except farmers 👍😀
Nothing good ever came out of a sentence that started with, "And no one needs to understand." Not all farmers are protesting. My family is farmers and they're pretty okay with it.
"No one needs to understand"
You are suggesting people should stop applying their minds and protest/support something without even understanding it. If lazyness was measured in metres, yours my friend would be taller than Burj Khalifa
bro they buy rice from use for Rs 14 per kg and sell for Rs 100 per kg... They gives us Rs 14 because its MSP which is in govt mandi... Now when private players wll come they wll give use Rs 20 in starting for 1-2 seasons we wll sell them very happily and wll not sell to govt. Mandi for 1-2 seasons... The govt mandi wll get closed as they r in very bad shape and govt also want them to close because they don't want to give MSP to farmers... When in 2-3 years govt mandi get close then private play wll buy our rice at rs9 or Rs 10 because we can't go to govt mandi they r closed... Monopoly bro... Then in 2 act of this bill they can store as much as they can... they wll do holding and increasing of price and sell you the same rice in Rs 150...
Thank you Meghnad
This was informative as well as entertaining.
Liberals would never support communism, or any other authoritarian regime. So not sure what you have put those two together. As a liberal I have to agree that the goal the government is pursuing is good the reforms will harm allot of people who rely on farming. The underlying idea is that small scale farming is unsustainable, as they will not be able to compete with big farms "corporations". The government want's to quickly reform the farming sector with disregard to what will happen to farmers. In my opinion the government should create a government farming fund that would issue out loans and grants to farmers for land acquisition and modernization and give out additional subsidies to those farmers that would want to sell their land and offer them financial incentive to change profession. The government should also prevent land monopolization by judge corporations that want to enter or increase their hold on the farming market. If the reforms are done right, farms will become larger and more modernized and thus will be able to produce more produce that could be sold at cheaper prices. The farmer will earn more, the food will be cheaper. The government should not leave behind those that decide (or in a worst case scenario will be forced by the market) to sell their land. These people can start businesses that provide services for farmers. Poland went threw similar reforms and has done fairly well with it's farming market. The government in Poland has oversight over the farming industry as provides financial incentive (lower taxes, grants and low interest loans) to farmers.
Both extreme solutions will be damaging to people. The current system is unsustainable as small farmers produce very little and thus cannot compete on an open market without government subsidies. Even with the subsidies the farmers earn very little which doesn't allow them to invest in modernization. The liberalization of the farming industry will force many farmers out of business as big players will outperform and outcompete small farmers that will be forced to sell their land and figure out by themselves what they should do now. The latter solution wan't to quickly change the faming market no matter the human cost - Margaret Tatcher style. This will have quick beneficial results for the country but many farmers will be left to fend for themselves. Furthermore there is a risk that uncontrolled land acquisition fulled by corruption will create a handful of huge corporations that control and dominate the market, destroying even large independent farmers.
Reforms are necessary but they have to take into account Hunan lives that they will directly affect, and not only the big picture and macro data.
Good luck!
Thank you for doing so much of research and simplifying and explaining it us.
I come from a farming family in Coastal Andhra and have been involved indirectly with farming since my childhood.
I am no BJP supporter (not after the way they treated AP after division).
But the reality of the government controlled Mandi is that the poor farmer is usually forced to sell at whatever price the broker cartel at the Mandi decides. MSP usually comes when government procures directly through the FCI etc. For perishable items like brinjal lemon etc he is forced to sell because he cannot take the produce back home.
For items like Rice I cannot sell outside the Mandi by law. I cannot sell to another district leave aside another state even when the price is much higher.
The government usually forces the farmer to sell locally at low prices so that they can supply subsidized rice to urban consumers or to keep the rice price low in cities.
I used to fret but could do nothing.
I don't know how the farm bills will affect farmers in Punjab but I am happy that I can now sell anywhere in India and to whomever I want. And nobody can force me to sell.
I can always sell at the government Mandi also.
I am very happy with this new situation as are most genuine farmers I know in Coastal AP.
I feel the presenter has never actually gone farming personally in any significant manner or he would be talking differently.
According to bakths, *"70 SAAL MEIN KUCH NAHI HUA"*
BUT

✓ When Modi was just six months old, India had hosted the first Asian Games in New Delhi and Jawaharlal Nehru introduced India's first five-year plan.
✓ Before he turned one, the IIT Kharagpur was established in 1951.
✓ When Modi turned two, India held its first general elections in 1952.
✓ Before Modi celebrated his 4th birthday, India created the Atomic Energy Establishment, Trombay (AEET). It was later renamed as Bhabha Atomic Research Centre.
✓ When Modi was just 11 years old, Indian Army liberated Goa and French-ruled Pondicherry , became part of India as a Union Territory.
✓ By 1961, India had established 2 IIMs and five IITs.
✓ By the time Modi turned 13 years, India had built Bhakra Dam ,Himachal Pradesh.
✓ Modi was just 14-year-old when Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) was formed.
✓ When Modi was about 15 years old, India's had fought and won the second war with Pakistan in 1965.
✓ When modi was learning to ride bicycle, india had already started manufacturing aeroplanes and helicopters.
✓ When Modi was about 17 years old, the foundation of the Green Revolution was laid and farmers harvested the first crop of high-yielding wheat.

✓ Long before Modi became the Prime Minister, India had already taken the initiatives for Chandrayan, Mangalyan, GSLV, Mono Rail, Nuclear Sub-Marine, Agni Missile, Chetak, MIG, Arjun Tank, Sukhoi, Dhanush, etc.
Therefore, India WAS a powerful nation with a robust economy before modi gov.
During the last 70 years India has grown tremendously and all ex prime ministers have taken brilliant decisions due to which india is now one among the biggest powers in asia .
Modi and his bhakts would not have raised the question '70 Saal Mein Kuch Nahi Hua' if they would have read history.
You forgot about 1962 debacle with China, that happened because of Impractical, unrealistic policy of "hindi cheeni bhai bhai " . Even after annexation of Tibet ,India did not prepare for possible confrontation with China . Nehru ji was a Hyper pacifict who did not not believe in defence preparedness .
Also Why did we have to fight thrice with Pakistan ? That is because during 1947 half of Jand K was left with Pakistan despite India winning in 1947 war .
If every thing was so nice ,why did Indian economy hit rock bottom in 1990 ?
Kindly read about licence permit raaj .
How can you forget militancy in Punjab , Indira Gandhi 's support to Bhinderawala ,1984 anti sikh riots , Terrorism in Jand K ,Exodus of Kashmiri Hindus ?
Ofcourse godd initiatives were also taken but these blunders cannot be ignored .
Lal Bahadur Shastri , P V narasimha rao were the best PM that India had .
Now try writing down the blunders done by governments in those 70 years. I can promise you, that list will be 10 times bigger than which you just mentioned above.
Licensed middlemen are such saints! They have always worked and nothing but for the welfare of the ppl. They have never arm twisted farmers to anything. We don't need no reforms. Also, this reform has been discussed and in contention for more than 10 years. Should have atleast been discussed 10 more years before its implementation.

🤣🤣🤣 . Vo phir tum log hamko Bakt kahte ho.🤦
Greatest living Punjabi/ Greatest living Indian is Manmohan Sir.
Reliance retail just bought out big bazaar..well I think that’s just a coincidence..😄
For those who say newslaundry does propaganda against government should watch how meghnath also highlighted the positive points
Presentation could have been made in a less frivolous way.
Yeah true.. felt something exceeding the limits..
Opposition says its opinion was denied, but there's a video of Kapil Sibbals speech in the parliament speaking abt the removal of middleman. Also Congress had included removal of dependence on APMCs in their manifesto.
Not a BJP supporter at all but I feel this reform is good.
So your "feeling" would decide the future of crores of farmers?
@@IamRanJos can you explain why these bills are bad?
@@alaapsarkar It will most likely create a monopsony in the market where the buyers are very few (MNCs and huge companies). This will force farmers to lower their prices in order to sell their crops to the buyers available. This is what Meghnad means by exploitation as when there are only few buyers and thousands of sellers prices might go too low for the agricultural practice to be sustainable. The middlemen was made in order to prevent this type of exploitation but bureaucracy without transparency made APMCs into a sort of exploiter too. In order for this bill to be successful, govt has to ensure there are number of buyers available to sell these produces to. This way farmers can sell their produce at a fair price as they aren't force to sell to a select few. How can they do this? Mujhe nahi patha yaar main to economist expert nahi hoon thoda padha hua hoon.
@@alaapsarkar If I have to venture however, they have to put a limit on mass hoarding on very huge MNCs (like the JioMart which will be coming soon) this way they cannot form a huge stake of the buyer's market and create the monopsony that I had mentioned in my previous comment. They need to regulate this aspect or else we'll become like the agricultural practices of African countries where liberalisation has led to food security issues(Case study of Senegal and comapnies forcing farmers to grow cashew nuts [I don't remember correctly if that is the crop] ).
@@harshithh.s.7513 Regarding your 1st point there is already a monopsony which are the authorised mandi traders. This bill doesn't remove anything, mandis are still there, government can still buy at MSP and now the farmer can also sell their produce in other markets. This bill breaks monopsony.
Before this bill the farmer could only sell their produce to their allotted mandi now they can sell at mandis or to anyone else. If they don't get a fair price from the open market they can go to the mandi and sell at MSP, that option is still there.
I need to look up on your second point.
Glad u were not biased on your take.. we just need unbiased news in these times. If there is proper regulation of this with farmers not being taken advantage of then I tnk the farmers will be hugely benefitted by this bill.
Random suppoter says:
You were silent when kangana's office was bulldozed.
Shouting when this bill is buldozed. 😂
Meanwhile: Logic died
Media already made enough noise for Kangana... We condemning it or not doesn't make any difference
Such a historic decision of market control , make petroleum price hike in India while price law in international market
