Yesterday I was talking with a farmer, his point was that all the policies of governments are to eliminate peasants from farming occupation so that corporate farmers can capture the agriculture sector.....for this they are increasing cost of agriculture inputs and reducing the Minimum Support Price (MSP)....finally a loss earning small farmer will quit the occupation and large companies will take their land on lease......farmers will have only option to work as landless labor on their own land or if companies could mechanize the entire farming then these people have no option than to migrate from their places, this will also work in the favor or corporate farmers... Is it really so......
