How many farmers are into Bt Cotton and GMO? We were always into organic farming only. Fertilisers and pesticides have come only during last 50 years. Before that we were unable to feed 60 crore people, and used to live from American ship to American ship of wheat. Now after fertilisers and pesticides, we are able to feed 125 crore people, and even export grains. Indian farmers are committing suicide because land has so fragmented that land holdings are 1/20th of what they were just 60 years ago. So farming is no longer remunerative, and with the break down of society even at the village level, traditional support systems of clan, village, and relatives are gone. Do not establish wild connections.
