FAMILY FARMER TO ERADICATE HUNGER AND ESTABLISH FOOD SECURITY (UN FSN-FORUM)
Family farming is the most encouraged and sought initiative to establish food security and eradicate hunger. Devising new 'Organic Farming Methodology & Technology' with adequate consultation from the agriculture counsellors with improved poilicy uptake can ensure good economic reforms for the farmer.
Precision Agriculture with Sustainable Farming should be welcomed as the deserving option, which involves elementary access to Information Communication & Technology, Adoption of Micro & Drip Irrigation, Farm Mechanization, Multi-Layer Farming, Forage & Fodder Cultivation, Provisional Veterinary Clinics, Facilitation of free counselling sessions for ignorant farmers, Facilitation of free Seed Distribution Drives, 'Young Agrarian Conclaves' to stimulate young generation to adopt 'Organic Agriculture' as a perky career.
It is an urge to acknowledge improvements needed for hassle free economic returns to the marginal peasants by supporting and foster free lease of agriculture land for a minimum period of 3-years into which 15-20% of the agriculture produce can be abstracted as land security amount by the government.
Awareness to elect 'Modern Agriculture Practices' in lieu of 'Conventional' like cultivation of Fruits & Vegetables, Spices, Oilseeds, Development of Water Catchments (Aquaculture), Coconut (Copra Oil Extraction), Plantation Crops (Sugarcane, Coffee, Tea), Atypical Cultivation like Cereal - (Amaranth, Buckwheat, Pearl Sago, Barley, Broken Wheat, Millet-Ragi, Sorghum), Pulses - (White Chickpeas, Horse Gram, Turkish Gram, Sesame, Field Beans), Spices (Carom Seeds, Star Anise, Brown Cardamom, Mace, Nutmeg) & Cash Crops (Bamboo, Cotton, Lavender, Chives, Oregano, Chamomile) are to name a few which are not in regular cultivation by the conventional farmer.
This transformation can be achived by assisting family farmer by imparting 'Practical Skill Sessions' by Agriculture Universities and designated Ministry of Government.
