Stand of the Government

♤ In 2014 the union government has promised to offer 50 per cent margin over cost C2 but this was never implemented in letter and spirit.

♤ Recently, Finance ministry has announced that the MSP will be in lines with its earlier announcement on Rabi crops.

♤ In budget 2018-2019, Finance Ministry has announced a hike in MSP for Kharif crops.

♤ Farmers are not satisfied with the announcement as the MSP formula used by the government is blurred.
