Land savings account to stop farmers' suicides in India

Vijaya Varma

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: The Land Savings Account can be useful in distinguishing who are small and marginal farmers and who are rich farmers. So by using the land savings account all rich farmers should be kept out of the reach of farm subsidies. Subsidies should be given to farmers who depend only on agriculture income. The rich farmers, who have other sources of incomes from government or private jobs, contracts, business, industry should be kept out of the reach of agriculture subsidies. * All agriculture subsidies should be given only to these small and marginal farmers
