Great initiative Ajay Ji. Congratulations. What we need is an objective, databased, analysis of India’s agriculture across regions leading to reform and restructuring of the sector that is not only technologically advanced but also financially, economically and environmentally sustainable. As you always say, narrow regional considerations do not help. Subsidies lead to misallocation of resources including land and water. Rationalizing and repurposing subsidies is critical.
