The Prime Minister was speaking at the 93rd Annual Convention of FICCI.
"We'd seen walls between the agriculture sector and other areas associated with it — be it agriculture infrastructure, food processing, storage, or cold chain. All walls and obstacles are being removed now. After reforms, farmers will get new markets, options, and more benefits of technology," PM said.
Further addressing the cause, PM Modi said that with all this, more investment will come in the agriculture sector and maximum benefit will come to India's farmers.
