Agricultural Economics Administrative Decision Making

एका क्षेत्रातील जमीन सुपीक आहे परंतु मागील तीन वर्ष पासून पुरेसा पाऊस पडत नसल्यामुळे शेतकरी त्रस्त झालेला आहे. शेतकऱ्यांनी शेतीसाठी कर्ज घेतलेले आहे आणि कर्ज फेडत न आल्यामुळे काही शेतकऱ्यांनी आत्महत्या केल्या आहेत. अशी परिस्थिती शासनाने कशी हाताळावी ? The land in one area is fertile but the farmers are suffering due to lack of sufficient rainfall from the last three years. Farmers have taken loans for farming and some farmers have committed suicide due to failure of refund loans. How should government handle such a situation ?
