"content": " Thank you very much, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. Let me, first of all, thank everyone who has contributed. Let me assure you that we have taken note. Your contributions are most valuable. They will be reflected in the amendments by the time we come to the Committee Stage. However, let me say that this was not an easy Bill to draw up because we are working through massive legislation which is by and large out modeled, but our aim was to make life easy for farmers. If it is not clear, our intention was to have better access to inputs. As it is now, this is done informally. There is nothing to tie anybody to give anybody any inputs. However, with this Bill, that is definitely assured. We want farmers to have access to credit. This has been a subject of discussion in this House for some time. This Bill will make it mandatory for the state to have that. The extension workers are extremely useful. This Bill makes it mandatory for farmers to have access to this. There is a question that needs clarification and it will be re-discussed, although we have discussed it before. Please feel free to submit your own amendments as usual. That is the question of taxation. There are those who feel it should be done at the county"
