"content": "If you go to other countries, be it in Asia or Europe, farmers are subsidized. I have stayed in the Netherlands for many years and the Government of the Netherlands subsidizes its farmers and they are given credit but in this country you will find that farm inputs are very expensive. Even when the Government comes in and says they are going to import farm inputs at a subsidized rate and give them to farmers, in the actual sense, when the farm inputs come here, particularly fertilizers, it is only the business people who eventually acquire those farm inputs and sell to our farmers at very exorbitant prices. So in essence, the Government actually subsidizes merchants, businessmen and businesswomen, who make colossal amounts of profits and farmers live in abject poverty."
