Higher mandi prices for kharif crop, likely bumper rabi harvest spell gains for farmers: Crisil Research
Irregular distribution of the south west monsoon in 2019 has impacted the 3Ps of Indian farming – productivity, prices, and profitability – unevenly, according to a Crisil Research analysis.
In crop year 2018-19, farm profits jumped 26% on-year over a low base of the preceding year (2017-18), which had seen per-hectare profits decline due to low mandi prices following a bumper crop. The outlook for this year is muted in comparison, though a rise in mandi prices for kharif and higher productivity for rabi crop would lend support to overall profitability per hectare
