Note that the ordinances limit existing APMC laws (as in Bihar) but limit the regulation of CMAs to the physical limits of the markets under their control. Regulations can lead to increased competition, which can also increase the efficiency of LDCs in providing low-cost marketing services. [12] In addition, for farmers who sell their products outside APMC markets, APMC market prices can be used as indicative prices and numbered to better price-fixing for farmers. No agricultural contract is entered into for the transfer – including sale, lease and mortgage – of the farmer`s land or premises, or for the increase of a permanent structure or for the modification of the land or premises. These rules apply, unless the sponsor agrees – at his own expense – to remove these structures or return the country to its original state as soon as the contract ends. When such a structure is not removed by the sponsor, the property is owned by the operator after the contract is concluded or the contract expires. The government said the law protected farmers who, together with agricultural companies, processors, wholesalers, exporters or large retailers, for agricultural services and the sale of future agricultural products, within a mutually agreed, agreed lucrative price framework, would be treated fairly and transparently. [7] On 5 June 2020, the central government adopted three regulations: (i) the 2020 Regulation on Farmers` Trade and Trade (promotion and facilitation); (ii) the agreement on price security and the protection of farmers, 2020, and (iii) the Commodity Regulation (Amendment) 2020[6],[8] Regulations collectively aim to facilitate (i) the accessibility of agricultural products outside markets notified by the various national APMC laws (ii) establish a framework for contract agriculture and (iii) to limit agricultural products only when retail prices rise sharply. Together, the three regulations are intended to increase the ability of farmers to enter into long-term sales contracts, increase buyer availability and allow buyers to purchase large quantities of agricultural products.
Quality, quality and standards of agricultural products [Section 4] Agricultural products covered by the agreements under this Act are exempt from the application of a national law that seeks to regulate the sale or purchase of agricultural products. Regardless of the provisions of the Essential Commodities Act of 1955 or the regulations in force at the time, these products are exempt from “any obligation related to inventory limitation.” If the above price is related to variations, the agreement expressly provides that agricultural agreements may include “trade and trade” or “production agreements,” or a combination of the two.
