IMPACT OF THE LAW
WHICH GIVES FREEDOM
TO SELL ANYWHERE
If farmers want to sell within the APMC markets,
that will continue. MSPs will also continue. So, the
MSP acts as a safety net for farmers.
APMC market yards will be open for farmers to
sell. This apart, they can also sell outside the
mandis. There will be competition to buy from
farmers which means farmers have greater
bargaining power to decide their price.
For every product and for every producer,
all of India is a single unified market.
Only farmers were denied this benefit of
a massive market.
With these reforms, Indian farmers will now
finally have the freedom to sell their produce
to whomsoever they want and where they
want and at price of their choice, an option
denied to them until now.
