Abstract: Abstract Farmer poverty is a pressing issue that transcends geographical boundaries, affecting small and marginal farmers across the world including developed countries like United States and developing ones like India. This chapter delves into the challenges faced by farmers, that are not isolated to a single region but rather a global phenomenon. In the United States, for instance, small farmers often struggle with economic viability. Some of them pursue alternative sources of income to supplement their farm incomes.
