Myth. The bill will block the ways for the state to generate revenue from agriculture trade and will lead to the closure of APMCs eventually giving corporates monopoly on agriculture trade Referring to Chapter 1 Section 2(m), “trade area means any area or location, place of production, collection and aggregation including – farm gates, factory premises, warehouses, silos, cold storages, or any other structures of places from where trade of farmers’ produce may be undertaken in the territory of India but does not include the premises, enclosures and structures consisting – physical boundaries of principal market yards, sub-market yards, market sub-yards managed and run by the market committees formed under each State APMC Act in force in India…”. The bill does not intrude into premises under the APMC Act and the same may continue to operate in the state. But it allows for the development of private mandi infrastructure in the state and hence, improved market access for farmers. The states with efficient services at APMC market premises will continue to attract farmers and generate revenue. Overall, the bill will ensure the creation of a competitive market setup, improved market access, and farmer welfare. 1. ▇▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇/article/explained/in-three-ordinances-the-provisions-that-bother- protesting-farmers-6598905/ 2. ▇▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇/news/india/what-are-new-farm-bills-benefits-farmers-protests-all- you-need-to-know-650274 3. ▇▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇/doc/1883579/
