“The Union Budget 2018-19’s strong pro-farmer focus can provide a much-need stimulus to the agriculture sector. Increasing MSP on Kharif crops, larger food processing sector allocation, and other farm programmes can accelerate the sector’s growth. We also appreciate the budget’s focus on increasing farmer income and profitability, through better farm price realization and adoption of low cost farming practices. The resulting growth can incentivize farmers to invest in mechanisation to expand the volume of produce from their land parcels.”
