Though farming contributes less than 20% of India's GDP, it provides livelihood support to nearly half of the country's population. It is an extremely challenging occupation, with many from the younger generation unwilling to pursue agriculture.
When the post-economic reforms financially benefited sections of Indian society, how did the farmers feel left out?
In the fifth episode of Environomy, the host discusses the impact of economic reforms on the agricultural sector.
Through Environomy, S. Gopikrishna Warrier takes us through the journey of how environmental economics got interlocked after the economic reforms of 1991. This is a journey for which he had a ringside ticket as a journalist, reporting and writing on the environment for the past three decades.
