Climate change, pollution of air, land and water, and change in globalisation policies are threatening the agricultural economy of the country. In such circumstances, focus should be on alleviating these problems, S. Damodaran, Minister for Agriculture, said here on Friday.
Inaugurating the 23rd meeting of Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) Regional Committee No. VIII at Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, he said that conversion of agricultural land for commercial or residential use has also aggravated the farmers' problems.
