Food is inevitable for human life Numerous record and vocal famines in human history, have accounted millions of millions wrong deaths.Therefore, foodstuffs have ever been primary concern of humanity. Therefore, our dependence upon agriculture is of final importance. Golden epoch of husbandmans and c beer Agriculture backbone of economy Farmers is an axle, close to which all agricultural and industrial activities revolve.There is higher correlation surrounded by agriculture and development whether it be househo ld consumption, industrial, and govern cordial utilization or need to earn foreign cash to import national necessities. largess scenario Nervous farmer of late, nobody wants farming as profession cheer unspoilty. It is truly unfortunate to know that ANNADATA (Provider of food) under arrest of serious financial adjudicate, numerous farmers in India, have committed self-annihilation owning to debt. Crime Records Bureau of India in its 2012 annual report acknowledged 13,755 farmers suicide (11.2%) of overall suicides committed in India. Although The National Mental Health Association of the USA States No depicted object the race or age of the person how rich or sad they are, it is true that most people who commit suicide have a mental or emotional disorder.Suicide is not a matter of economic science. Same inference drained by the data released by World Health Organization in 2011.whereas agrarian country ,Indias suicide rate was 13 per 100000 at the same time as that of industri alized nations,were often higher or comparable, S bug outh Korea 28.5, Japan 20.1.,etc. ( HINDUSTAN times April 24, 2017). All above reports seems to be partially true only to humiliated extent. It is practical, financial stress can fetch not only mental agony but also in various cases, emotional stress as well. Financial paucity is core cause of, numerous political- socio- economic -psychological disorders. It is tho a matter of time..when these theories diminish and go to a nightmare. humor wobble price output paradox Most of the farmers in India are marginal farmers. Government of Indias annual report 2016-17 Estimated average size of holding, 1.15 hectare. Farmers baleful reliance on weather brings uncertainty of yield. Weather plays vital business glumice for especially marginal farmers. If typical weather is friendly, harvest is right(a) otherwise, nearly poor output is predictable. Most suicide of farmers had reported from water- scarce secernates standardized Ka rnataka, Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh etc. Increasing remark cost of labor Agriculture input cost is increasing, rather than output r sluiceue. Management and hiring laborers and latest tools and techniques is costlier to the farmers. Apart from this, usual seeds and dress out protecting insecticides and machineries to grow crop and harvesting, such as-tractors to plow, tube- wells to wet are nightmare for farmers. Thus, horrific scenarios worry farmers. Marketing of agricultural resultion Majority of farmers are still illiterate. They are neither strong ample to fight with strong gamut of intermediaries, traders and corrupt marketing machineries nor organized to do so. Their crop in the mandis or market place sold manipulatively before their eye and they are mere spectator.Thus, primarily twist their arm and force farmer to rush localized moneylenders for debt and fulfill their urgent need of time. Climate change plays vital role in farmers well being. Dilemmas of farmers been portrayed as. mould of population there is very crucial correlation between agriculture and population. Condorcet and Godwin produced such works, which promised to create heaven on earth. Mercantilists as well as Physiocrate,-Mirabeau, had forever and a day regarded numerous population advantageous .Godwin was so confident and plausive that he proclaimed, Government even in its best state is an corruptive. He anticipated such a society in which afterward breaking the bonds of property, of passions and marriage would live happily on only half a days work. Such optimism have some force, and hold true even after a long time.After a rapid addition in the population over the years, there is plenty of food food grain in the world, if managed , distributed, skillfully and impartially, keeping humanity above all cast, trust and beyond geographical boundaries , to the needful of every people of the earth.Farmers have always obtained either semi- crop, due to several explicit and implicit factors. Semi- prices due to socio- economical and political reasons. He is always lagging behind in the facilities of education, wellness and transportation even after a long time of independence. in the meantime tries to minimize input cost of labor, this comes at the cost of engaging whole of his family members for the sake of survival of the family, resulting uneducated, unskilled progeny.During the next cycle of division of farms among the heir of farmers, descendants work either as manual labor or just a marginal farmer to be anxious, wait and watch, hoping organization help and waivers. In Such a horrible scenario, after laboring day and night, it becomes very burdensome to earn bare- bread without butter .Coming out from the vicious cycle of poverty is not possible without welfare and sensible government. Thus, government intervention to revive farmers economic condition is urgent need of time and always solicited.Government efforts and intervention Our governm ent has ever been reacted positively on farmers woes and wounds.Relief packages As and when required government-provide relief packages to the needy farmers. Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, and Rajasthan, or Gujarat or any states of India all helped sometimes or any other.Debt- waiver schemes At the time of crop failure, due to any natural calamities, such as over pouring and scanty precipitation or drought, respective state governments and Indian government or both many times waived off farmers loan.Soil health bait For better productivity, soil health card issued to the farmers for their farms.Integrated scheme for awkward Marketing (ISAM) effective since 01.04.2014National Agriculture Market (e-NAM)Model Agricultural Produce and Livestock Marketing (Promotion and Facilitation) Act, 2017Modified National Agricultural Insurance outline (MNAIS)Weather Based Crop Insurance Scheme (WBCIS)SUGGESTIONS As discussed above, it is obvious that, farmers ache a lot, from vicious cycle of c limate change and price role mechanism of input and output.

All together, due to weaker retaining power of their farm product bring their bumper crops at a time in the market adjoin supply, resulting poor pricing due to application of demand and supply laws of economics connivance of intermediaries, scheming traders and bureaucracy what is the outcome of this all-copious crop? Farmers bitter look of unproductive farming, securing semi price for abundant crop. Half- scorched price for full- baked rice.Therefore, there is an urgent need to address farmers despair in India. pursual measures may taken to embalm their miseries1) Rainwater should be harvest with full vim and vigor on large scale. Rainwater harvesting tools and techniques should be subsidized and easily available to the farmers.Education and advertisements, Should imparted among the citizens of India to pitch even single drop down of water. Although, this is herculean task and need a lot of finance, yet would rise up very fruitful in long run.2) Twenty -four hours subsidized electrical energy for irrigation should be provided to the farmers3) Dependence on chemical fertilizers should gradually mitigated and be substituted with organic fertilizers to sustain fertility and productivity of land.4) Ceiling of minimum farm size norm, for cultivation should be determined. Below this farm size limit, accommodating farming should be mandatory.5) Farmland must be saving basically from any misuse. Every possible attempt should carry out to save agricultural land. High- rise buildings in place of independent dwellings be preferred and permitted like China, to save extra land. Agricultural land should not utilise rather saved from industrial and residential land misuses.6) It is evident ,due to unawareness and self esteemed
