7:34 am
home yet from up in india couture explains why in a very we are farmers if our land is taken away what will we do what will we eat what will i tell my children that we never went there to protest we never raised her voice against the government the land that belonged to our ancestors we even lost that they were asked why we didn't fight for our rights that is why we are here boys in the army after. so what is next for the farmers protest in india if you have perspective we would love to hear from you you know what city if you are on the cheap is jumping to the comment section and be part of today's show and you can also ask the questions too i guess you have an excellent one up we have elizabeth we have merged in there and we also have the guest hello welcome to the string nice to have it it is let's tell everybody who you are why you are important to this discussion. hello family while i and the other khurana al-jazeera has and
7:35 am
their correspondent and i've been covering these protests since they began 2 months ago and now. my dear the welcome to the stream tell everybody here. what it's a lot of. fond of so little time to institute before close on winston water sure a little better and i'm also i'm on climate change ourselves and working on what get to have a headache welcome to the stream why you put into this conversation tell our audience here you are what. my name is. dear that can lean over all for a national alliance scorelines for sustainability who mystic agriculture i've been far. from the beginning. i would you 2 things one is elizabeth i want you to catch up and how about when
7:36 am
it's catch up with what has happened since the protests started in terms of government action and defeating you've been in talks negotiations and i want to hear what the thoughtless feel that they have achieved so far so please he starts us what is the government done when they realise the farmers were upset what if they don't. well the government has done quite a lot for me i mean they started by trying to stop these farmers from entering delhi to begin with they use tear gas and water cannon when they realize farmers are determined to come to the capital they said that you can come but you have to protest as a desert designated site that wasn't good enough for farmers and they occupied 3 major highways they've essentially allowed us to do that and after about 6 or 7 weeks of the largest protest that we've seen since promised in that in that order was 1st elected 6 years ago. the government has now said that it's willing to suspend the implementation of things that was for 2 years so that's latest offer
7:37 am
that follows the supreme court's suspending the implementation of the laws while it set up a committee to look into them so the government it looks like you know it's made. exceptions or it's made allowances for the farmers but of course nothing they've done is good enough for farmers for that it really didn't help that the supreme court's committee was made up of 4 people who have all spoken out in favor of the kinds of changes that the government is suggesting and that is why the protests are still very much continuing. i've been looking at some headlines on my laptop here this one is from the times farmers reject cintas proposals put yours on hold for 1.5 years is that this is just updates just a little bit longer than that the you have been negotiating table this is quite
7:38 am
some feat farmers have done it they've pushed back a lot what else do you know it wants. they've only got a suspension awful from so far and they're asking for the. repeal of the laws and that is something that the government does not do is not ready to give in because they believe that the prime minister to be. they want him to be seen as someone who is decisive they want to be seen as. a government we can screw reforms and so on. and all in all of this moment why the markets still get 40 points from the government has seen many other things happen there's a huge debate that the protest has churned up in india democracy it's
7:39 am
about reforms and brits do diction shoot reform speech about a gradient crisis in india and importantly. have learned to work with each other flom organizations which have been working as small. groups all over the country they have joined hands and we're talking about it least $400.00 organizations coming together listening to work with each other protesting together that it's a. huge positive outcome and hold this promise for the future as flat as. 2 feet or you make an important point and it's something the problem of who is a little we are. just a little bit moving just a true test that this is tending to amusement this is what he told us. fatah
7:40 am
movement has successfully democratic freedoms going on reading going on curacao stock market model going childred every lawmaker. movement is proceeding rightly only by the program had among women rich no reason question and it could be unfortunate if the government of the day are always there to use force or wellington in the form of to go this mosque peaceful boston to burn and in the struggle for the right by the people yes we have quite a movement going on and he commits such as well murder i'm going to put the question to you if this is for ms ali thanks nice for staying up late why do you think the ruling indian government want to stick something that isn't broken. i think that's a fan's needs is a banger. ok that's
7:41 am
a fantastic question. about i'm just going to talk more and you know what they are all about are almost the. only one and. or you know while they. are only 6. and the long march if i'm going to read or write or like so if that's all i'm broken i don't know what is sort many farmers out killing them so if that's not broken i don't know what is the one thing is many of these crops started off as a linear legacy and then we've continued on with them sort of i'm. going to. i'm going to the water and out of the water and out of job and. a lot of those crops you know what job and have not bought something get 55600
7:42 am
millimeters of rain and ice it's a crop that does i think on their appearance which is 800 millimeters of rain and then people talk to. the farmers i call the also say one of the reasons they concept. procurements and the price i'd like to is because this is the market you know so i would disagree that the system us know what broken the system is broken and i think we need to do a lot all small farms and i want to see neighborhoods and there are questions but a lot of women let's leave and you know. i mean it's not he's saying in this group yeah right push back to you it doesn't matter i never hear from you let me put this one to you why most of the film is from punjab. and not. of india. so the reason why most. farms are from punjab and haryana is the cause most of the
7:43 am
farmers and punjab and i do yana do actually get a minimum support price for their project mr mishra speaking about that $6.00 this and saying that only 6 percent of the country's finest get that minimum support price. wallace. there is a lot of debate about that that that 6 percent i think the doctors from about 2012 there needs to be more recent dollars and better analysis. basically it's because they are the farmers that are going to be impacted a lot by the laws they are also very very organized and so they've been able to come to jennie's for what is. essentially stand up for themselves. to take isn't ready to. are. calling for a protest was given to the states as own daily then the talked about
7:44 am
you know walking into daily to speak to the central government of india. it was a call given to farmers from. the british just. for all of the farmers in the country this is this was in october that was said. as we call it in india i mean let's go to delhi now but all of the states the call was about protesting locally. but just you do find that the punjabi farmers are more organized than the straight and also people who have access to. the nitty lake tractor trolleys and they converted into they put it he homes as this quarter. is yet i just want to bring in place through here and this is to me that much. about. how effective is famine in
7:45 am
india right now maybe there should be some reforms have a look here. at an article that she wrote in december from axa necessary for green revolution 2.0 on transparency in consequence incentives and communication are key so what the government did murder was that ok. and are we just looking at pushing back progress in india and india really does need to look at how is it doing its agriculture right now. again i'm going to keep in mind i meant change and what i have i think that both things right are we growing appropriate and when you talk. to us. and i think the musician or a look at you for the promise of
7:46 am
a job and how they are not there led the charge on into evolution one point which made us all right i think all of. that after i think that it's not all the way it's about that but it seemed to point to as to being in a warming climate then different from one point that you need different crops you need different jolt of things to participate and the problem is i think you can become said that it could i think one child has permission to be on top is getting all the things that what opera brought up in getting that interest and many thoughts it won't have the financial badly thought of that infrastructure which is why they need 5 of the patients and into them with that private part of the patient doesn't it that's pretty small problem but i heard. that you know what we want is a kind of private participation and you know i think some of they can actually be
7:47 am
rid of the need to bring the kind of those you want to get there and just you know i know you didn't ask me about the protests but i think the board in some wonderful mature you ringback condemned to say one thing that i so-called political communication we can get the solution where. we moved to a better place. but you know i mean. yeah liz in the piece that i'm not seeing how let's get to that solution right now stop go ahead. say i just wanted to say that you know femi there's very few people that will say that india. is perfect most people say that it needs reforms but those who are out protesting protesting those hundreds of thousands of people say that you can't fix one broken system but the new set of laws which are broken in themselves because they give too much power to private corporations which were not. in the interests of more than marginal farmers most most of india's more and more and marginal
7:48 am
farmers. i would have beginning now to power who talks about the green the solution in. right back to you and i should say in the 1960 s. india had a green revolution so this is why now the reform of agriculture right now is being called the refresh illusion 2 point by some people now that your power is saying hold on a minute it's happened to listen to what she had to share with us earlier in the story. there are lots of misconceptions i don't read evolution so it was not an entirely successful operation and the intensive want to close their practices that it didn't go into their herd and are especially detrimental for smaller marginal farmers were ones that you know heard of these farm laws so these practices the idea of going to responsibly for farmers who saved land lucian and more to be you should so what are the farmers in india do we need. from these practices do not mean very boettcher do not need devolution where all or any munition do seem to
7:49 am
have markets. to go ahead you've been sitting at the gauche ation tables you want to be revolution $2.00. but it. has a. has a negative connotation for most of flows. and you know it's something that ended up destroying those pockets of india. as those hubs so food security as win as those ignore large strikes. in india so they would is pretty small on set of places where everything was bombed in a wall ecosystem was built on focusing on just about 2 grains and beat and india's food security is. a policy concept you're lazy invested on these. 2 grains and supply from
7:50 am
these pockets to the rest of the country and i must say that followed has been a boon for the entire country and that is where we don't need a 2nd greens evolution as it's called we needed need to reconceptualize wards the future of india as agriculture looks like we don't need the same better dame replicate it a 2nd time and. unfortunately we haven't large program going on it's actually does that it's called bring into being devolution to east india a lot of public investment is going into water intensive farming in eastern india so we need to think about farms in a different. need not mean just you know in a macroeconomic sense. you know liberalization facilitation of
7:51 am
private business operations and so on for most things this government didn't usually talks about a unique. indian tragic tree. sure the word when it comes to reforms the need pharms from unlikelihood sport speak to the need to. lift the need to unwind mental sustainability and the important things we need social justice. i just want to just jump jump across to murder murder you look totally forgot we can fix it was talking you had your head in your hand and you do not i can't can you i don't put words into your into your body language can articulate what your face was now you know what's going on and yet it's not i think that. that's exactly what i said which is you know blamed. i don't want to be in
7:52 am
evolution 1.2. and that's the irony that agreeing that you know what you should go and live it to sustain. you know fire the almost protests out about continuing to grow you know no no no it's not no nor not with the less already there asking for prices for you to go in or. so that you know i mean you're with me i mean our mum doesn't want and it came to me just a quick price of what from. it gives you know if you want to get out of the doing it please but again. i mean let's say ladies don't let anything you say but let's not be. i hear i hear the disagreement i'm going to hear it i know to you both made your point and now i'm going to move on i want to share with you something here it's an image that. let's put on her instagram account and she
7:53 am
was in put in charge she was talking to protest and the thing that jumped out at me were these were all women there is an alarm about gender or women fans women farmers also protesting that sometimes get over a lot look this is step to see when minding us that there are women protesting and what they also have to lose is have a look at. it decrease in farming incomes is likely doomed lead to rising levels up did and debt is a very cause of farce to say in india now we're belonging to suicide a very good families are already going really well and we do power decency that tomorrow morning and do the view good ideas of me in who it is environment are ordinary acknowledged as farmers in spite of their way to going to. morrow or in a few leveraging our society when farming in the drawer and household resources are insufficient then the needs of men will move toward the needs of their.
7:54 am
lives go ahead yeah yeah i mean henry the laws started to address the end of quality in farming at all women make up around 50 percent of the nias agricultural force they are only on 12 percent of the land they work on they're not recognised as farmers which means that they're not entitled to many government provisions to credit. the credit that people get when they are hummers and again these laws don't address any of those massive imbalances. when i'm following the farmers protests and keeping up with all of the debate what comes out seems to me that the worst case noir the pharma so expect in the worst case scenario and then i saw a tweet from you which is really interesting the government of india has already lost a game set and match has tanked from is true tess that sounds very optimistic
7:55 am
you're always somewhere in the meadow do you feel you've done. well in many of there is. like i said the fact that the debate is squarely on the farming crisis. is something that was in long. and to me it's so good it seems that the farmers protests is making headline news every morning and prime time debates on india as mainstream television channels are about ok what should be done you know which direction for the future so that to me is a good thing and the fact that the government is stepping down incrementally after having ignored the protests for once so all of these to me reading that if positive outcomes already and i think we are not too far away from actually getting go we're
7:56 am
demands for it. is i guess i'm going to ask you just very briefly in a sentence to reply to judge it seeing his own right now when we're farmers not consulted before implementing the law i mean surely they they would. not have this protest if they'd actually consulted the farmers i want an instant reaction from leeds much of the use not. i think the bow consultations are going to be. and. you know. i mean we're all almost as much you know pushing or you know pushing back much of the same they were consultations goofy things in response to jackson well they were absolutely no consultations when it came to this said laws that the same brocton
7:57 am
they will consume titian's. the farms in exactly the details of it and that was lift to the state governments in india's fridge and set up the flag did the government. name brought in these acts that is the unacceptable part and i wouldn't agree that they were consultation. phemie i would just say that this is not a government that is known for doing enough consultations with stakeholders before at passmores and that's something that we've seen a lot over the last 6 years and this is an theme that i would say. thank you gas for keeping us up to date with the psalmist protests and pushing us almost the discussion as well huge she says you're remarkable at the time of these grow counts it is the middle of the night. and i can tell that from his protests he's very d. and e.
