    "content": "If you look at the agriculture sector which is the mainstay of this economy, it is given very little money. Even the BPS this time around is proposing that we shall even give less to agriculture. Last year, agriculture was number 11 in priority of this country, where priority is looking at how much has been given to a sector. That being the case, the few proposals that look like they are reasonable in terms of what agriculture can do, is basically developing more acreage so that we can expand the national irrigation programme to increase production and productivity. There is also proposal to increase the area and small holder irrigation. I would like to say that as country we need to go the way other countries have gone.
