The correct answer is D. All of the above.
Farmers’ movements in Karnataka have campaigned for fair prices for agricultural produce, access to credit and inputs, and government support during droughts.
Fair prices for agricultural produce is one of the most important demands of farmers’ movements. Farmers have been demanding that the government should fix minimum support prices (MSPs) for all agricultural produce, which would ensure that they get a fair price for their produce. The government has fixed MSPs for only a few crops, and even those are not always implemented properly. This has led to farmers getting very low prices for their produce, which has made it difficult for them to make a living.
Access to credit and inputs is another important demand of farmers’ movements. Farmers need credit to buy seeds, fertilizers, and other inputs. They also need credit to meet their day-to-day expenses. However, banks are often reluctant to lend money to farmers, as they consider them to be a risky proposition. This has made it difficult for farmers to get the credit they need.
Government support during droughts is also an important demand of farmers’ movements. Droughts are a regular occurrence in Karnataka, and they have a devastating impact on farmers. Farmers need government support in the form of drought relief, crop insurance, and other measures to help them cope with the effects of droughts.
The government has taken some steps to address the demands of farmers’ movements. However, these steps have been inadequate. Farmers continue to face many problems, and they are demanding that the government do more to help them.
