The finance minister assured that the MSP henceforth will be one and half times the actual production cost. Though the government announced steps to keep its election promise of doubling farmers’ income by 2022, there is no provision for additional procurement or 100% procurement of produce. Similarly, the finance minister announced a slew of new schemes and measures. But at this juncture there is little or no clarity. For instance, the government has decided to raise the MSP of all unannounced kharif crops at least one and half times their production cost, after declaring the same for the majority of rabi crops. But the details are still awaited.
