MSP - Minimum Support Price

By

                                                                                                 -  Diya Mulik (std. X Abhinav Vidyalay)   





In 1960 Minimum support price was introduced by our Government because Indians faced many problems of food storage due to there being a drought for multiple years. This policy was very helpful for our farmers, this policy was designed to maintain stocks of food, and the government also provided price support to our farmers. The MSP was made for various commodities and the rates of grain were also turned into a minimum price for those who cannot afford it.

 

In our agriculture price policy when the MSP was declared for the first time from various objectives, one of them was Minimum support price which became an important function of our agriculture price policy.

The objective of the minimum support price is to ensure the price of farmers who grew the crops and give higher investment and production.

The objective of MSP is also to bring sufficient food production to the people and also the people are getting affordable food grains.




The minimum support prices are fixed by our Government of India because we get the food from our farmers and they should get proper price for their crops which they grow in their farm, that's why the MSP given by the government has a guaranteed price for their produce of farmers. 


The MSP is beneficial for farmers because as per the minimum support price when the government purchases crops from the farmers they get the proper price of their crops. 

Thank you for reading

Annual Day 2023

By
 After a long hiatus due to covid we finally got most activities on track. The Annual Day function is always a big deal for everyone at Abhinav. It has been a tradition my mother started that the Annual Day will be not a Teacher-managed event, but a Student Initiative. Since when I was a teenager, I was part of this and today 10 years after she passed, I still strive to make it work as she would have. After some hesitation, we began working in early January. I wanted to use an outside choreographer just so that teachers will not be burdened. (They are already struggling with post-covid learning difficulties) But then, an outside guy could never do justice to the Abhinav style of doing things. We always keep in mind that the cultural program should be enjoyable to everyone in the audience and at the same time should display as many of the diverse talents that our students have, as possible.  It was a great relief that my G3 students came to the rescue. Almost all of std 9 and m...

We have developed from fuel-efficient vehicles to Hybrids and EVs and now we are enhancing self-driving vehicles.
