The Indian Farmers Union is demanding a comprehensive system compared to the MSP. The BKU demands that a new and comprehensive MSP system should be created, which includes farmers’ land fare, wages of farmers and expenses after harvesting. So that farmers can get the right price for their crops.
Farmer party is also demanding MSP on other crops
Dharmendra Malik has demanded from the government that the scope of MSP should be extended beyond the current 23 yield.
