What is price policy
A price policy for agricultural produce aims at securing remunerative prices to farmers to encourage them to invest more in agricultural production.
Keeping this in mind, the government announces minimum support prices for major agricultural products every year.
These price are fixed after taking into account the recommendations of the Commission for Agricultural costs and prices (CACP)
3
factors considered by the CACP to regulate price policy
• Cost of production• Changes in input prices• Input/output price parity• Trend in market prices• Demand and supply situation• International market price situation• Parity between prices paid and prices received by
farmers (Terms of Trade)

What is procurement
• Procurement is the acquisition of something of goods and/or services at the best possible total cost of ownership, in the right quality and quantity, at the right time, in the right place and from the right source of the direct benefit or use of corporations, individuals, or even governments.
5
Govt.’s Grain procurement
• The record purchase of over 51 MT achieved last year.
• But private interest in procurement of both wheat and rice has been limited , owing to export ban and purchase restrictions imposed by the government.
• This passive attitude of the private sector along with an increase in the Minimum support price (MSP), has aided government purchase
6
Contd….
• It is worth noting that wheat MSP has been raised by 8 percent and the rice purchase price by 20 percent this year.
• Wheat procurement has already touched 22.24 MT, marginally lower than the previous year’s procurement of 22.68 MT.
• Similarly, rice purchase has touched 28.45MT, just below last year’s purchase of 28.5 MT
7
Contd…
• In 2009-10 the central pool had wheat stocks of 29.82 MT and rice stocks of 21.40 MT making for a total of 51.22 MT.
• The stocks of both the grains are much higher than the buffer stock norm for the period- 4 MT for wheat and 12.2MT for rice

Procurement of rice and wheat(2006-07to2008-09)
2006-07 35.8
2007-08 37.6
2008-09 55.9 (32.80+22.69)

Minimum Support price of Agriculture commodity
• Minimum support price announced by the government is that price at which government is ready to purchase the crop from the farmers directly if crop price becomes lower to MSP.
• Govt. has been announcing minimum support price (MSP) for 24 major crops
10
The main objectives of announcing MSP are:
• To prevent fall in prices in the situation of over production.
• To protect the interest of farmers by ensuring them a minimum price for their crops in the situation of a price fall in the market

Market intervention scheme
• The Market intervention scheme (MIS) is an ad-hoc scheme under which are included horticultural commodities and other agricultural commodities which are perishable in nature and which are not covered under the minimum price support scheme
• Government implements M.I.S. for a particular commodity on the request of a state Government concerned
• Losses suffered are shared on 50:50 basis between Central Government and the State govt.
