Agriculture ministry examining Dalwai committee’s report on doubling farmers’ income

25 Oct 2018 Evaluate

Union agriculture secretary Sanjay Agarwal stated that the inter-ministerial committee has submitted the recommendations on doubling farmers' income by 2022 and the agriculture ministry is examining this recommendations. Agarwal said the panel has pitched for higher investment by both public and private sectors in the farm sector besides shifting the focus on post production and marketing of agri-produce. He added that some of the views of the panel are being implemented like linking 585 wholesale 'mandis' to the electronic platform and establishing soil testing labs across the country.

The panel headed by National Rainfed Area Authority (NRAA) CEO Ashok Dalwai has submitted a report with a detailed strategy to increase farmers' income to Rs 1.92 lakh per annum by 2022 based on the 2015-16 wholesale prices, from Rs 96,000 the current income. The Dalwai committee had set up in April 2016 to look into the entire gamut of Indian agricultural ecosystem, including input and risk management, post-harvest and marketing strategies, issues relating to sustainability.

According to the panel report, economic indicators do not show equitable and egalitarian growth in income of farmers despite increase in agriculture and horticulture output over last few years. The human factors behind agriculture, the farmers, remain in frequent distress, despite higher productivity and production. The demand for income growth from farming activity, has also translated into demand for government to procure and provide suitable returns. The inter-ministerial committee also suggested self-sustainable models empowered with improved market linkage as the basis for income growth of farmers.
