India’s The Hindu published an op-ed co-authored by Research Fellow Anjani Kumar on agricultural credit policy. In the article, Kumar noted that the recent farm loan waiver scheme may slow down the pace of institutional farm credit, and is likely to pose a challenge to the agricultural growth. The article also referenced a recent IFPRI study on agricultural credit in the country.
