Till
now farmers were not reliving from onion crises they were struck hard by the
new venom in the field COVID-19 preceding to the lockdowns which would be
serious crises and also farmers are facing daunting cropping seasons from
freezing labor forces to a shortage of seed and fertilizers.
The agriculture sector is in a very crucial state as this is the beginning of the
rabi harvest season and also the news of erratic rainfall destroying the crops
have been heard from the different parts of India so mainly who will suffer
more the big question from the beginning of era the Indian farmers they were
not getting any buyers they have to stop their stock in the middle of the supply
also, there is no proper warehouse availability to them affecting supply chain slowdown and shortages.
A glut of question arises Will the farmers will get public procurement during the
pandemic? Will, there would be clear communication between the government and
the farmer for there food production safety?
But
what about crops like wheat, barley and mustard must be looked for proper
storage channels but what about the perishables? we have seen rural farmers in different
states of India were dumping and feeding
their perishables to their livestock meanwhile there were seen the flowers like
gerbera, gladioli, and bird’s paradise
production was also affected by the
fear of lockdown the export of exotic
crops have been drastically affected as we know India export Good amounts of
lettuce, strawberry, Brocolli, celery, parsley, etc to the entire world as the demand for these exotic
were in peak during the summer but what next this is still a big question which
will never answer by anyone
This
would be bewildering a big question for the future as the Food production and
food safety of the whole world has been staggered by this pandemic also this
may also lead to the shortage of supply as the production of the rabi crop is
mostly affected meanwhile China and
India is the leading producer of wheat in the world Followed by Russia and
both the strong countries have been violently ruptured by the effect of the
COVID-19 this may be arousing the inquest among the entire world.
