other than Sikhs and Haryanvi, Indian farmers are mostly subsistence farmers.
Yeah, precisely. And they will remain poor if there are no drastic steps to increase their income. Incentives for setting up the farmers market, exporting directly to states, even get MSP and enjoy Mandis. So, the government simply de-regulated the market which made it possible for small businessmen or consumers like you or me to approach farmers directly without the intervention of a Mandi. Fair enough.

Import potatoes from Idaho, wheat from Australia, Rice from Thailand, Soyabeans from the USA,, sheep from New Zealand.
Give the young urban professional Indian consumer low priced good quality food. It is the young urban professionals that produce India's goods and services for export.

I'm sure India didn't sign another ASEAN FTA (or RCEP). Or did you get some insider info we didn't know?

Just a suggestion. That way you smash the kulak farmer lobby forever. After all the majority of India's exports come from tech services and industrial goods. Agriculture makes up only minor portion of India's exports. This " effing " farmers agitation represents the most regressive, parochial rural dehati section of the population. It is a culturally bankrupt semi educated petty politicking lobby.
They think their tinpot 25 HP tractors matter. Farmers in the USA, Russia, Canada, and Australia can outperform these Tauji and Sardars several times over. They need to be shown the world and their place in it.

No matter who you are, you should understand that there is no Utopia in the world.
As a Chinese, I support Modi's farm bill.
In a country like India, it is difficult to make any reform.This bill is good for India in the long run.
It's just that the Indian government's approach is a little simple and crude, and does not fully communicate with farmers.Twenty years ago, China also had food purchase protection prices. The state purchased them at the protection prices. Later, anyone was allowed to purchase them. However, the state still has protection prices. Farmers can choose to sell to anyone and enterprises, or they can choose to sell them to the government at the protection prices.After that, the protection price is gradually withdrawn.

Your attempt at sarcasm is as bad as your attempt at making any valid points.

Your ignorance of the meaning the word kulak is as bad as your ignorance of the word's historical and social context with reference to India.
Also equally bad is your implied support for a socially regressive and parochial section of your country's population that does nothing to improve your country's social development and transformation.

Developing countries try to move to an industrialized educated society. China is a good example to follow.

Oops I shouldn't have said that.
Golden rule. Never correct an enemy when it is making a mistake.

You can trust your government to withdraw the protection price in a manner that will benefit the masses and protect industry at the same time. Your politicians are not selected in an expensive popularity contest called an election. In a democracy like India, you cannot trust the government to do that. The government will reduce the protection price or take it away because a big businessman has put money in the pocket of the politician. Then the same handful of big businesses will offer similarly lower prices in the name of competition, but in reality will be fixing prices behind closed doors. They will fill the pockets of judges and politcians alike to make sure there is no enquiry. They will buy journalists to ensure there is no public fuss against them.
