Question

How has globalization affected Indian agriculture?

Accepted Answer

Globalization has affected Indian agriculture in the following ways:

Most of the Indian farmers has switched over to commercial crops of high value to make more profit.

The Indian markets are opened up, but the developed countries continue to have their own trade barriers and they have limited imports from developing countries like India.

The developed countries continue to subsidize their agriculture. As a result, India cannot get the advantage of their low production cost.

It becomes difficult for India to export their agricultural produce to an area in which they have a geographical advantage. As a result of subsidy, Indian agricultural products do not get place in the world market due to the products at cheaper price from developed countries.
