Finding an “alarming picture” on the farm front with over 2/3 of landholdings of households in the country are of one or less than that hectare extent and the government credit not penetrating to them and bearing a high level of indebtedness with little access to good farming practices, an ASSOCHAM study has revealed. The study released on “Farm Structure Reform: Structural Changes on Farm Size Needed for further successes in Rural Front” says that there was a strong case for them to be collectively farmed either through corporate type or cooperative pooling of land. With this kind of farm holdings “it is unrealistic to expect the next big stride in agriculture”, the chamber cautioned policy makers.
