agrarian distress

Agrarian distress refers to the financial and emotional difficulties faced by farmers due to factors like low crop yields, falling prices, heavy debt, and unpredictable weather. These issues can lead to economic instability and, in severe cases, contribute to farmers feeling overwhelmed or helpless. It reflects the struggles of the agricultural sector, impacting not only farmers' livelihoods but also food security and rural stability. Addressing agrarian distress requires understanding these interconnected challenges and promoting sustainable farming practices, fair prices, and access to financial support.
