Reforming agri marketing
Financial Express Lucknow|December 21, 2024
Need for a GST-like body of state ministers to build consensus on a unified national market

Although the government backtracked on farm legislation three years ago due to a year-long agitation by farmers, the reality is that the genie of reform is out of the bottle. There is no rolling back the government's Digital India initiative that uses technology to transform how it delivers services to farmers. Over 3.7 million IDs have been created for this purpose as part of the Agristack project. The action has now shifted to the states for securing the best possible market and price for their produce.
