Doubling farmers’ income; halving number of farmers’ exploring possibility (State Times)

October 02, 2019


State Times (India) reported on the status of rural income in India, referencing Director General Shenggen Fan. While the government has plans of doubling farmers’ income by 2022, economists and researchers offer an alternative–halving the number of farmers. Fan suggests if not halving than reducing the number of farmers using the ‘Move out, Move up’ approach and emphasized how Chinese transformation was based on this approach. This article was republished in Early Times (India).
