Corporatisation In Agriculture e-bog

The theme, corporatisation in agriculture, is a leap in the dark insofar as farming and related activity are largely personal in nature, and comparisons with the United States, where the MNCs would appear to have over-run farms, may not make much sense. The Americans have learnt to live with various lobbies and that representing farming does wield a lot of clout and this, one must remember, does not quite emerge from the increasing dominance of the giant corporations. In the Indian context, farmers have always dictated terms, although their power as a major vote bank is not to be confused with a glaring reality of the farm sector - the wanton neglect of the vulnerable segments of the rural masses often leading to suicides and deaths due to sheer impoverishment.
