Yearly Average Index Number of Prices Received and Price Paid by Farmers


The data shows that farmers in Kerala are getting higher prices for their produce over the years. However, the cost of farming and living has also gone up a lot. While the money they earn has increased, their expenses have increased even more. In 2010, for every ₹100 farmers spent, they earned ₹52. In 2024, they earn ₹54.40 for every ₹100 spent. This means their profit has not improved much in 14 years. Even though prices have gone up, the benefits to farmers have stayed almost the same.
