The MSP is announced by the government every year before the sowing season. The MSP is based on the cost of production of the crop, the market price of the crop, and the government&#8217;s objective of ensuring a fair price to farmers.<\/p>\n<p>The MSP is an important instrument for ensuring the welfare of farmers. It helps to protect farmers from the volatility of market prices and ensures that they get a fair price for their produce. The MSP also helps to increase agricultural production and productivity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;23&#8243; option2=&#8221;7&#8243; option3=&#8221;5&#8243; option4=&#8221;12&#8243; correct=&#8221;option1&#8243;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3631","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-agriculture","no-featured-image-padding"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.2 (Yoast SEO v23.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>How many crops are recommended by Agricultural Cost and Price Commission of Indiafor minimum support price ?<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The Agricultural Cost and Price Commission of India (ACPC) is an autonomous body under the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, Government of India.
