Storage Facilities And The New Agriculture/Farm Bills 2020

Abstract

 India is the second largest populated country in the world. For feeding such huge population, requirement of food is larger which can be fulfilled by stocking food  For this purpose we need huge facilities of storage. But the storage facilities is not enough. The main occupation of the people is agriculture but their earning is very low. To increase the storage facilities and  also to fulfil its desire to double the income of farmer Govt has passed three agriculture/Farm bills in the month of September 2020. Inthis paper we have tried to find out the present position of storage available in the country and the impact of these three agriculture/Farm Bills. By analyzing the data it is clear that the present position of storage is not satisfactory. All the godowns are almost full and new harvest has arrived in mandis. As far as the new bills are concerned there are certain questions that are still to be answered.
