Farmers protesting on the outskirts of the national capital, majority of them from Punjab, want the government to continue paying them a Minimum Support Price (MSP) and procuring all of their rice and wheat produce. They also demand that the facility of free electricity and subsidies on other inputs such as chemicals and fertilisers and machinery remains as it is.
However, agriculture experts & some farmers say a combination of assured procurement, free power & input subsidies has led to a vicious paddy-wheat cycle that needs to be broken.
