In India, Several Big Companies like Reliance failed to give remunerative price to farmers in several states as the vested interests created political agitations and stopped them from opening branches and outlets.
So, please join hands with them and do it together; not alone; not just another initiative which might fail before reaching the the door step of the poor.
Why the poor never raise their voice???
Because you dont have an educational component in your empowerment programmes.
I have a program to reduce five years learning to five months, a basic fin literacy program.
Any intt??

As Mr. Swaminathan, Indian plant geneticist, put it, “for farmers a remunerative price is the best fertilizer”.

I am really glad that such a large relief organisation as WFP started seeing the poor as producers and not only beneficiaries.

Warmest regards
