Problems and prospects of Indian agriculture

The developed countries are consumer-related, in most of the developing countries. The equation is the opposite. In most of the developing countries, the consumers are happy as they are getting agricultural products at an extremely affordable price. On the other hand, the farmers make next to nothing out of it. In fact, the little profit that comes out of agriculture goes to the middleman. Most of the farmers work only on small-scale. They are unable to make anything substantial out of what they produce. But this isn't all. Owing to the enormous population and limited employment opportunities in such countries, it becomes impossible for the farmers to come out of this circle. India, in particular, symbolizes the agriculture problems of the developing countries. Therefore, to solve that problem, it is necessary that we understand the major problems of agriculture in India. The surplus too is low, which means that farmers mange to eke out a living only for themselves. One of the solutions to agricultural issues is to improve communication between rural and urban areas, so that farmers can sell directly, without the need of the middlemen. There are many problems of agriculture-farmers are always in debt, and struggle to make a living. There is inadequate transport and communication between rural areas and the government has to step in with loans at low interest to save small farmers from the clutches of moneylenders. Better seeds have to be provided at low prices too, to help the farmers grow assuredly surplus crops.
