Economy Pillar 4A2: Agriculture Markets, MSP, & Agri-Inflation | UPSC, Banking & State PSC (PCB14)

🚀 Welcome to the PCB14-Raftaar Economy Series! In this power-packed session on Pillar 4A2, we shift focus from "Inputs" to "Output"—covering how farmers sell produce, the Minimum Support Price (MSP) mechanics, and the massive Allied Sectors (Dairy & Fisheries) which are crucial for NABARD, UPSC, and Banking exams. In this video (Highlights): • Agri-Marketing Reforms: ◦ APMC vs. e-NAM: Why the traditional Mandi system failed (cartelization) and how e-NAM (connecting 580+ mandis) and GrAMs aim to fix it. ◦ Legal Framework: A brief look at the Essential Commodities Act (Stock limits) and the repealed Farm Laws. • Minimum Support Price (MSP): ◦ The Math: How CACP calculates MSP using (A2+FL) x 1.5 vs. the Swaminathan Committee's C2 Formula. ◦ Coverage: List of 22 Mandated Crops + 1 (FRP for Sugarcane). Special rules for Toria and Coconut. ◦ PM-AASHA (2024 Reform): The umbrella scheme integrating PSS (Procurement), PDPS (Price Deficiency Payment), and PSF (Price Stabilization Fund). • Food Inflation & Price Control: ◦ Cobweb Cycle: Why Pulse/Onion prices fluctuate in a loop (High Price → Over Production → Crash → Shortage). ◦ Intervention Tools: How the Govt uses OMSS (Open Market Sale Scheme) and MEP (Minimum Export Price) to control rates. ◦ Operation Greens: From TOP (Tomato, Onion, Potato) to TOTAL. • Allied Sectors (High Yield for NABARD/SSC): ◦ Animal Husbandry: Trends from the 20th Livestock Census (WB UP for Cattle, but UP RJ for Buffalo). The upcoming 21st Census (2025). ◦ White Revolution: Rashtriya Gokul Mission and the Pashu Aushadhi Initiative (2025) for affordable veterinary medicines. ◦ Blue Revolution: PM Matsya Sampada Yojana targets, Shaphari Certification for antibiotic-free shrimp, and the new Kisan Credit Card extension to fishermen. • Global Context: ◦ International Year of Millets (2023): "Shree Anna" and the MIIRA initiative. ◦ WTO Issues: The conflict over India's Sugar Subsidies and the Peace Clause. 📚 Exam Relevance: • For UPSC: Focus on concepts like Cobweb Cycle, C2 vs A2+FL, PDPS, and WTO/Subsidy issues. • For NABARD/Banking: Memorize Livestock Census Ranks, MSP Crop Count (22), FRP Authority (CCEA), and schemes like Nandini Sahakar. #UPSC2026 #MSP #Agriculture #PMAASHA #NABARD #Economy #MrunalPatel #PCB14 #FoodInflation #BlueRevolution #LivestockCensus #BankingAwareness
