Provide crop insurance
Ensure fair prices to farmers
Promote organic farming
Modernize irrigation systems
Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: B) Ensure fair prices to farmers.
The Bhavtaar Bhugtan Yojana (BBY) is a price support scheme launched by the Government of Madhya Pradesh in 2017. The scheme aims to provide a minimum support price (MSP) to farmers for their produce, irrespective of the market price. This is done by the government purchasing the produce from farmers at the MSP and then selling it to consumers at a lower price.
The BBY has been successful in ensuring fair prices to farmers and has helped to increase their income. The scheme has also helped to reduce the distress sale of agricultural produce.
The other options are incorrect because:
- Option A is incorrect because the Bhavtaar Bhugtan Yojana does not provide crop insurance. Crop insurance is a type of insurance that protects farmers against losses due to crop failure. The Bhavtaar Bhugtan Yojana, on the other hand, provides a minimum support price for agricultural produce.
- Option C is incorrect because the Bhavtaar Bhugtan Yojana does not promote organic farming. Organic farming is a type of agriculture that does not use synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. The Bhavtaar Bhugtan Yojana, on the other hand, is a price support scheme that aims to ensure fair prices to farmers.
- Option D is incorrect because the Bhavtaar Bhugtan Yojana does not modernize irrigation systems. Irrigation systems are used to provide water to crops. The Bhavtaar Bhugtan Yojana, on the other hand, is a price support scheme that aims to ensure fair prices to farmers.
