Q: When is National Farmer’s Day celebrated in India?

Ans: National Farmer’s Day is celebrated every year on 23rd December in  India commemorating the birth anniversary of 5th Prime Minister of India Shri Choudhary Charan Singh.

Recently Indian Govt has passed three farmers bill-

1. The farmers Produce Trade and commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) bill 2020.
2. The farmers(Empowerment and Protection) Agreement Price Assurance and farms services) bill 2020.
3. The Essential Commodities amendment Bill 2020.

First bill allows barrier free Intra and Inter- state trade of farm produce. Previously farm produce was sold at notified wholesale markets or Mandis run by the 7000 Agricultural Produce Marketing Committees. Each APMC had licensed middlemen who would buy from farmers at prices set by auction before selling to institutional buyers like retailers and big traders.

According New system farmers can eliminate middlemen and sell directly to institutional buyers but it is also subject of concern because this exposes them to corporates who have more bargaining power and resources than small marginal farmers. There was no restrictions on farmers to sell elsewhere earlier too. Removal of geographic restrictions is also subject of concern for farmers. State Govt. also worried about it because APMC taxes will be abolished by this act.

Second Bill will allow farmers to enter into agreements with agri-farm but farmers are worried this means the MSP will be removed and no govt. control over prices.

Third the Essential Commodities Bill allow food hording but farmers are worried about it because unlimited stocking can lead to artificial price fluctuations and low prices for farmers after harvest.

The acts are more favourable towards the companies and not legally empowering the farmers. This is also concern that 6% of the farmers sell their crop on MSP price, rest farmers sellout at lower price of MSP.
