Dear Stake-holders,

 

While thanking all of you ( - could be on behalf of 1.4 billion citizen of our country ),  for giving up the path of “ confrontation “ and taking to the path of “ reconciliation “, I urge you to , at least debate my following suggestion with an “ Open Mind “

 

With regards,

Devil is in details

  

Farmers have “ suspended “ their agitation after getting an official / written assurance from the Central Government to include in the “ Terms of Reference “ of the proposed Committee :

 

“  Provision for a legally guaranteed MSP for 23 crops “

 

One news paper reported today :

“ Suppose the govt were to buy the marketable surplus of 23 main agri commodities grown by farmers, then the federal FOOD BILL could go up to about Rs 9 – 9.5 LAKH*CRORE 

Ashok Agrawal, analyst with Comtrade, a commodities trading firm

 

( source : Demand for legally guaranteed MSP could put fiscal strain, experts warn / HT / 10 Dec 2021 )

 

 

I urge the Govt to incorporate following in the “ Terms of Reference “ :

Ø  MSP for each crop shall be computed, automatically using a TECHNOLOGY PLATFORM

Ø  Concurrently this technology platform shall also compute automatically, MPQ ( Maximum Purchase Quantity ) for each crop

Ø  The only INPUT to this TECHNOLOGY PLATFORM ( from the Central Govt ) , shall be :

             “ The overall FOOD BILL shall not exceed XYZ % of last year’s GDP “   

Ø  Given such over-arching CONSTRAINT, platform will generate a family of MSP vs MPQ projections, for consideration and adoption by the Committee ( for each crop and for overall )

Ø  Committee will accept a particular COMBINATION ( of MSP and MPQ ) for each crop and recommend its announcement by the Union Agriculture Minister

Ø  This process will be repeated each year

Ø  Committee will have a STATUTORY standing

Ø  Besides involving an ENLARGED PARTICIPATION of all stake-holders in the process of determining MSP ( for each year ), this will ensure that the Committee feels responsible / accountable for the implications of its recommendation on the FINANCIAL HEALTH of entire country

       I urge all concerned to examine my following proposal in this regard :
