farmers want a regular water supply - but we build canals cos the construction of canals will give enough funds to be pilfered by the politicos. instead build small bunds and lakes all over the country.
teach them drip irrigation, rely on themselves not the government - but the politicos want farmer to rely on election manifestos and be at their whims. cos they need a vote bank.
farmers need to rely on less pesticides and fertilisers with modern techniques. they wont do it - cos the farmer then stop relying on the "system" that politicos built.
farmers need immunity from vagaries of nature. in the days to come we'll see less forests and more el ninos and floods and natural disasters. but these natural disasters will only drive the farmers to the political class.
its a systematic trap set by the political class. we sit on the sidelines and comment.
