摘要

The year of 2012 has been declared by the United Nations as the International Year of Cooperatives. 'Agricultural Cooperatives—Key to Feeding the World' was the focal theme for this year's World Food Day. Among the many serious problems we are facingon the food front is the gradual diminution in the size of a farm holding. According to the Agricultural Census of 2005-06, the number of operational holdings is nearly 130 million. A majority of our farm families numbering about 120 million belong to the category of small or marginal farmers. The cost-risk-return structure of farming determines their ability to invest and to take to high-value agriculture. A small farm itself is not a handicap since it affords an opportunity for taking to crop-livestock integrated farming systems, thereby increasing the net income per unit of land and water. A small farmer, however, suffers from many handicaps since new technologies, though size neutral, are not resource neutral, inputs being needed for output. Onlyby overcoming the constraints faced by small farmers, we can reap full benefit from small farms which are ideal for ecological farming. Therefore, a major challenge before Indian agriculture is the standardization of methods of providing the power and economy of scale to small producers.
