Are Farmer demands BASELESS or is the govt exploiting the farmers? : MSP Economic Case Study

[@ThinkSchool]

So we just saw some random flood of comments below the farm bill episode!! These people think we only said that the MSP will cost the govt 40 lakh crores or 10 lakh crores. Turns out these people only watched the first half of the episode and skipped the second half!! So just wanted to put this out!! Unlike some people who present only one sided arguments, we presented not 1 not 2 but 5 possibilities of the MSP implementation which are both pro and against MSP. 1. 40 lakh crores if MSP is applied to ALL CROPS. 2. 10 Lakh crores if MSP is given for 23 crorps 3. 21,000 crores, if the govt pays the the difference between MSP and mandi price. 4. ZERO. If the govt applied MSP and forces the private players to pay more to the farmers!! So the govt wont have to buy anything and just act as a price regualtor. 5. Profit. If the govt becomes a monopoly, bought all the crops and then sold to private players at a profit! Moral of the story : End tak dekho, fir comment karo!!

[@kushagrasrivastava3030]

Mainly Government cannot directly implement every demands of farmers because in the time of elections government is bound to not to do any changes at present... and also they have no funds to raise the demands at a whole... Government recently approved to buy wheat at ₹125 more on msp and also in WTO for our farmer's sake India demanded permanent reform on public stock holding and also asked for raise in percentage hold of agriculture subsidy backed by South Africa... Though WTO shrugged off India by claiming India unreal about their demand... This shows that government is aware of our farmers needs but it can't fade the fact that government showed ignorance in agriculture reform for India which today led to much heat between farmers... At present government is choosing temporary path to ease the farmers demands for a while but I think after elections new laws will be entertained for the good of our farmers... Jai Hind Jai Bharat 🇮🇳❤️

But how government will be in loss, post buying, will they not sell to make some money, if government will distribute it in subsidy than that is there problem in such case farmers are not responsible for 10lakh corore loss to government. So just don't say such big number that it will be loss to government. And the main points is in such climate change environment, farmers faces loss due to no rain or excess rain.

[@animeaddicteduwu]

One thing that comes to my mind is though - Since C2 category is based on assets owned by the farmer, we need to consider that rock bottom poor farmers will remain at their same places but rich landlord farmers would get even richer.. Poor farmers dont even own land, they have to seasonally work at rich farmer's land.. Isnt that right? as I think more, this system could also increase the land prices of rich landowners near Delhi and Mumbai as for farming on their land is already highly profitable.. Maybe like politicians tend to make false promises to poor people, maybe these landowners have brainwashed the workers at their field that the new law will be beneficial for them also leading to mass protest.. (Opposition could have also played a role in this like a deal between the opposition and landowners) (Some thoughts against the government too if you feel I am biased) - government will of course not implement the new rule or it could affect their funding by private companies.. It is (maybe) a surity that the govt is lying about strain on economy and the counter arguments by peasants are correct.. Since private companies would have to put money from their own pockets, they'd rather spend less money to influence the leaders in power to prevent these steps.. So in short according to what conspiracy theory I just randomly spouted - Whole system may be corrupt.. And we can't do a f*ing thing about it, just go around your peaceful day.. Lol

[@gsmrg]

​@@animeaddicteduwupartly true. C2 cost won't be calculated per farmer. It'll be weighed average value, applicable for all procurement. In that mechanism farmers whose land rents are high will benefit less, where as farmers with less land rent will benefit more (cause his actual cost is less but C2 considered in MSP maybe more)

[@1265PrabalSurana]

This is indeed a situation which feels like a double edged sword, the government cannot ignore the farmers for too long, because of the sympathetic with them, but then again raising and inducing MSP as mandatory, will be counterproductive...I believe the entire infrastructure of farming needs a revamp, though a slow and painstaking process, will realise in more revenue for the gov and the farmers.

Out of 35, 14 lakh crore directly goes in intrest payment of loans, 6 for defence. In rest 15 lakh crore, our nation runs.

​Yes, that 10 lakh crore of rice has zero value. Because you are producing in excess. Grow less rice, then price will increase. And grow more pulses, that we are having to import. In fact, Punjab should not grow rice at all. Eastern UP, Bihar and Bengal are right place. They have abundant water. No water pumps required. But irrigation canals are lacking there. So, we should invest in irrigation canals in Eastern UP, Bihar and Bengal, and increase the yields of rice there. Punjab should grow pulses, millets and oilseeds. And leave some land for industries also, so that non-farm.hobs can be created. Reducing electricity subsidy by not growing rice, will give cheaper electricity to industry and enable them to create jobs.

Your research didn't mention another very crucial aspect of MSP. The World Trade Organization (WTO) framework, specifically the Agreement on Agriculture (AoA), allows developing countries to provide more than 10% minimum support price (MSP) for certain staple products, but with limitations and conditions. Here's a breakdown: General rule: Developed countries are bound by a 5% de minimis limit on product-specific support, meaning they cannot provide support exceeding 5% of the total value of a specific agricultural product's production. Developing country exemption: Developing countries have a higher de minimis threshold of 10% for product-specific support. This means they can provide MSPs exceeding 10% of the value of production for certain staple products without violating the AoA. However, it's important to note that this exemption is not absolute. The AoA, in Annex 5, outlines specific limitations and conditions :- Product coverage: The exemption is only applicable to designated staple products considered essential for food security. Transparency: Developing countries must notify the WTO Committee on Agriculture about their use of the exemption. Safeguards: Developed countries can challenge the use of the exemption if they believe it is causing adverse trade effects. Thus , even if Govt wanted to give MSP , there are limitations as per WTO conditions

Major concern is unregulated Ground water extraction by farmers in Punjab & Haryana (the ones who are protesting). Actually lands of Punjab & Haryana are not natural regions to grow Wheat and rice. Especially Rice bcz it takes huge quantity of water. And since these farmers use ground water extracted through electric tube wells using subsidised even free electricity. The water level has gone down in the areas of these farmers which is a threat for future generations. Eastern Bihar, West Bengal have more per acre productivity for water intensive crops like rice. These so called protesters just want they be given fixed MSP for Rice and wheat bcz they don't want to diversify the crops, not want to invest in new tangible or intangible assets. Why these protesting farmers esp of Punjab don't want to grow vegetables, millets, pulses. Why are they hooked to just rice and wheat? Bcz it is their comfort zone . Let the ground water go down, let stubble-burning choke North India. But we the farmers of Punjab and Haryana will not diversify our crops. We will sow rice, ask a poor labour from Bihar, UP to run tube wells at night on free electricity, let him care for our crops for 4 months while we enjoy. And then we will get a fixed MSP on rice and wheat. Jai Hind.

(If all the points listed out in video and counter arguments are absolutely true, than the following opinion seems most appropriate -) One thing that comes to my mind is though - Since C2 category is based on assets owned by the farmer, we need to consider that rock bottom poor farmers will remain at their same places but rich landlord farmers would get even richer.. Poor farmers dont even own land, they have to seasonally work at rich farmer's land.. Isnt that right? Edit 1- (random thoughts) - as I think more, this system could also increase the land prices of rich landowners near Delhi and Mumbai as for farming on their land is already highly profitable.. Maybe like politicians tend to make false promises to poor people, maybe these landowners have brainwashed the workers at their field that the new law will be beneficial for them also leading to mass protest.. (Opposition could have also played a role in this like a deal between the opposition and landowners) (Some thoughts against the government too if you feel I am biased) - government will of course not implement the new rule or it could affect their funding by private companies.. It is (maybe) a surity that the govt is lying about strain on economy and the counter arguments by peasants are correct.. Since private companies would have to put money from their own pockets, they'd rather spend less money to influence the leaders in power to prevent these steps..

We are forgetting and ignoring one major aspect to this farmers protests... Yes, there are Arguments on both sides as to why MSP changes need to be implemented or not. But, the farmers are not demanding just MSP changes now are they!!! They want subsidy, free electricity and pension on top of MSP changes. If MSP changes itself can cause so much economic disruption and let's say for argument that the MSP changes will help farmers and not be a problem to the government.... Please tell me where should the government procure the capital for the other demands??!!!... We need to remember that the tax paying demographic of the country is very less.. I think objectively, I stand on the side of the government.. the farmers are demanding too many unreasonable requests I think. Having said that, I hope the find middle ground soon.

[@Nsb52]

What about the subsidies on fertilizers and free distribution of seeds and other agricultural equipment’s including farm loan waivers.. is that factored in cost of production??

[@Anvesh405]

Yes!! Govt is already funding a lot of money. That's not factored in. Punjab farmers who are protesting now are either Khalistan funded protesters or misguided based on some propaganda.

[@Sanatani_Sherni]

Ganesh ...you forgot to mention about another demand by the farmers....that India should EXIT THE WORLD TRADE ORGANISATION...!! _As an Indian...I Stand with my PM and My Government...Thats It..!!!_ ❤🇮🇳🚩

17:54 Regarding this argument that the government can buy all the crops and become a monopoly and sell it to other bodies at its own desirable rate.... I want to ask that why is this not happening? It seems to be such a simple solution to all the above problems. Can someone state the cons behind this??? What's the problem in implementing this policy?

[@Itz_._Sana693]

Give them msp...cut all subsidies... tax them as corporates...

i found this channel one month ago and now im addicted to its video they are so informative and mind bowing i watched almost half of the videos of this channel youre doing great work think school i appreciates your efforts

[@hydraofmalice]

you made it so easy to understand. A lot of my friends were arguing with me that the government is oppressing the farmers by not allowing MSP to be applied to all the crops. i told them how it will significantly affect our capital expenditure from other equally important areas but no one would understand. this video cleared their doubts and now you just said what I wanted to say but a 1000 times better.

40 laksh crores All state income should give to Central govt Then it will happen

[@JiyuTomo]

Abhi and niyu did a better job at explaining the pro n cons of farmer demands.

[@jacobwills7619]

To the people saying farmers dont pay the taxes, firstly let them earn enough to pay the taxes..how easy it is to say they don't pay taxes. And also they do pay taxes on certain aspects of farming, it's a vast field. India's 50% population is agriculture dependent, to the people saying msp would only benefit farmers, it means half of India would be uplifted. And I'm not saying all the demands should be fulfilled, but the govt should make a valuable change in the system and create a provision that is well balanced. So terrible that the comments here show that people take farmers for granted.

[@vamsivikasbuddha123]

40 lakh crore Is acceptable? What about govt employees, infrastructure Then what is difference between old and now

[@1morerahul]

The government is not able to store, government is not able to export, government is not even able to distribute it to drought struck areas, what exactly is government doing at the moment?

[@1morerahul]

@@SanjaiKrishna-yy8gz Who said Government isn't supposed to do business? Modi? Government is the largest business entity in any country! It's literally the set of people we have appointed to take care of our country's business. What we export, what we import, what should be taxed and how much? Everything is done by the government. Privatizing country's assets is not the solution of incompetent government? Ask for better government! Insist on better governance!

[@inspiregrowth9022]

​@1morerahul Govt's job is administration and not business. Being a socialist state, they are already controlling enough. They should only hold stake in extremely critical sectors. You should want them out of your life, not give them more control.

[@raghubharadwaj7122]

​@@tanishkbansal6183you are hoping that the private players will buy from the Government once the implementation of MSP so that the Government can make profit but if private players start to import grains from other countries where these grains can be imported for a relative lower price then it will be a huge economic chaos.

[@pranatimishra1659]

@@tanishkbansal6183 sure let me help you out the most imp point is where the private players will directly buy it from foreign players if they are forced to buy from MSP as they can't go for losses .... it's already happening as ITC is already procuring its wheat and rice from Russia and Argentina as they are getting it at a much cheaper rate. Socialistic policies still haunt us even today and act as a barrier to our economy. and I'm a little upset that @thinkschool didn't talk about the other unrealistic demands of farmers. 2nd point...... today if govt starts selling at a forced price of 5000rs per quintal then there will be artificial price inflation on the market ad hence today you are seeing farmers protesting tomorrow more people like you and me will protest on the street for inflation.

[@tanishkbansal6183]

@@pranatimishra1659 aah sure sure understood i understood , but what about these socialist mFs and so called democracy savers/requiers which think it is all right to protest in the national capital just months before the elections , putting the lives of 100 if not 1000s in danger...... just with ! statement that "they are farmers they are annadata , respect them" .... and i really like this hypocrisy of taking Hindu core cocepts of annadata as first learnig and when elections are over saying ki cow belt chose hindus and intelectuals chose progressive gove------ yeag sure this pregressive govt. whose head has already announced if wins elections will implement MSP in all his states ........ ask that basta*******d that after paying all the lones when the state is only left with 15 Lakh CR where will you get the money to pay 6cr every year

[@blazingsunshine8809]

I think msp can be guaranteed for small land owning farmers. Link the lands owned to aadhar or ration. Choose a limit where most of the poor farmers come and set msp. Let others use market. At the same time government must also focus on storage as we have seen price increases due to war in ukraine and government can use this for diplomatic purposes easily instead of banning export for some time.

according to me its like offer to setup company who are trying to coming out from china there are 2-3 more country dont remember name there are also tax are less initially most of them where going there every few where ready for india after few years they can increase tax because it is not easy to shift the company in short its just like giving freebies for tasting ot using when new shop open in area with discounts initially making habit for people I mighty be wrong but this is my thinking

[@GurpreetSingh-us6ti]

Not only lowering corporate tax but corporate loan waivers , Just FYI i am in favour of corporate tax lowering as it gives companies incentive to come to India

Can you also then explain why government does not tax farmers?

Don't you wants jobs then ? Companies only come here if they find this country as profitable. You can't expect them to do charity.

This is just like saying based on cost of living for a city, government should set minimum payroll to be done for a worker based on his/her qualification. For example skilled worker in Delhi should get ₹X per day and if private players are giving ₹Y per day; government is liable for ₹(X-Y) amount. The cost of living formula would include inflation too. And if we extrapolate this don't know when the inflation would stop as it would become vicious cycle.
