Today the Finance minister of India Smt Nirmala Sitharaman has declared the budget for various sectors. In context to this she has also mentioned India’s economy has increased in recent years and it is becoming a world market. Now coming back to the agricultural sector she mentioned rupees 1,42,000 crore for the agricultural sector for the year 2023. For the farmers of our country, the government of India has planned to set up a small cooperative society which will be able to channelise the agricultural credit societies. The budget will help the small agri entrepreneur who are planning to set up a modern agricultural society. This scheme will strengthen the dairy, fishery, etc sector in the next five years. During the speech she has also mentioned that for the next 3 years, 1 crore farmers are going to adopt natural farming. Farmers will get the help of the public as they will provide them with the infrastructure for storage and farmers will get an adequate amount of income. During the speech she has introduced about millet which is termed as “SHRI ANNA” and she gave a brief description about how millet is very much essential for us and in Hyderabad, a millet institute will promote it through worldwide.
