Recent policy debates highlight contract farming, dismantling outdated APMC structures, and encouraging private investment in agri-supply chains. Technology-driven solutions—like precision farming, drone-based soil analysis—offer productivity boosts. However, smallholders need credit support, irrigation coverage, and risk management through crop insurance. Exam angles include analyzing farm protest contexts, global best practices, and how to incorporate sustainable methods (organic, zero-budget natural farming).

Understanding these reforms is pivotal for ensuring food security and doubling farmer incomes.
