RIL is planning big time in revolutionizing retail industry in our state. They claim that with efficient supply-chain system they can cut middle man and improve the marketability and profitability of farm products. On top of this Walmart, the world leader in retail market is planning to enter India. AP is one of the states they are going to pilot. At the same time our Govt, having realized the importance of new segment in the market, promoting organic farming for farmers. All this is going to change forever the way farmers grow and sell their products and the way we buy the products.

Lot of critics led by left are skeptical about this experiment and feel it will ruin the livelihood of thousand of middleman who buy the products from farmers and bring it to the retail market. What do you think? Is it good for consumers and producers?

Middle man are the crooked peolpe who hv been robing the producer & end user of all most all agri products.

Farmers are most affected peolpe by this middlemen gamble.

I don't think anybody can throw grace on them, any policy eliminating the roots of this middlemen robbing & illegal earnings will be of great help & morale booster to the farmers.

Mr.Kumar,

This above system is a part larger conspiracy of our society. In srikakulam, vizag districts produce huge stocks of vegetables which no other district can compete with them. the noble vegetables like gobhi, carat, bet root, cabbage, alu, beans, soya, mutter, capsicum are produced here without any remunerative price. In srikakulam the gobhi today is sold at rs.1/- kg according to recent TV 9 interview with farming community there. These people are benefitted to some extent in vizag district because of raithu bazars.
