‘Farmers are facing some problems in this lockdown.’ Do you agree with

been common everywhere empty grocery store shelves as families rushed to
stores preparing to settle for long run. Farmers who today are still in the
fields, in this pandemic, often without sick pay or health insurance, planting
and harvesting our nation’s food supply. The Coronavirus lockdown will
adversely affect the agriculture sector and farmers in India. The sector is

from lockdown directives, policemen are creating problems. Recently due to
heavy rain, India’s agriculture sector faced disruptions and crop damage. And

individuals. Similarly, the COVID-19 pandemic has brought significant

to shortage of agri-inputs. In addition, the lack of labour in the lockdown has

to sell their products in the market and agricultural products are being
wasted/destroyed and rotten on the field.
