I thought I was crazy until I found Richard Feynman. Feynman was not only among the most brilliant people on earth, but he transmitted something I've never seen in others. Thread with some lessons from his peculiar way of being:

How the stock market is protected from a virtual collapse and farmers made to face the vagaries of markets. Economists have no problem when share market is tinkered with but frown when poor farmers seek protection from market volatility. Paisa bolta hai.

"Modern man does not experience himself as part of nature but as an outside force destined to dominate and conquer it. He even talks of a battle with nature, forgetting that, if he won the battle, he would find himself on the losing side…" – E.F. Schumacher, #SmallisBeautiful

The food price control in India is political, and the burden is borne by the farmers and consumers together. However it is wishful to expect 'Good Package' again as a grant. There is work required on the ground. Agri focussed MBA and IIT for the farmers will be a good start.
In an interview with Global Punjab TV I was asked of the solution to pull farmers out of the crisis .. listen to my short and crisp answer.

The soil underlying one hectare of temperate land houses up ~ 15 tons of life, mostly bacteria and fungi. That's the equivalent of 20 cows. Often it's what we can't readily see that determines the productivity and health of an ecosystem.

#GreenRevolution problem Rice was not a crop of Punjab .Tall Straw of native varieties turned into stubble by the Green Revolution dwarf varieties of rice bred for chemicals & use of Combine harvesters which only harvest the grain & leave the stubble in the fields .
#WATCH | #Punjab: "We don't have any option. Our demand is to give Rs 6,000 for stubble. We don't have any interest in burning stubble; it's a compulsion...," says a farmer

When you stop chasing wrong things you get the right solutions. Instead of blaming #MSP rise for inflation, look what Spain did to bring its inflation to lowest level in EU. It capped rent increases, and provided free train travel for 1 year. Germany is now capping house rent

By the time food reaches our plates, there is no pesticide residue remaining. Yes, in standard application conditions that's true (How many you know who follow them?). Read how these chemicals affect our food, health, and climate.

Many of the world’s biggest oil companies produce pesticides or their chemical ingredients.

I am checking out threads... Will surely check Twitter when I am too calm and would like to see the disturbed, distorted, and violent content. Or disgrace publicly a company for poor service... #Youtoocando @elonmusk

@JioCare Impossible to get a gsm call and data signal at Sector 63A, Gurgaon. Tried to complain online through chat, but it keeps getting timed out. The location is Kriti hospital, and it's near impossible to call the place or make any call out of it. It is an emergency.
