Vice-President M Venkaiah Naidu has said that the issues raised by the farmers can be resolved through dialogue.
“The Government has already declared that they are always ready to hold a dialogue with the farmers organisations,” he said.
He was interacting with a group of progressive farmers on the occasion of ‘Kisan Diwas’ (Farmers’ Day) here on Wednesday.
“Food security and progress of the nation were closely linked to agriculture, which has to be protected, made sustainable and profitable,” he said.
He said there was a need to increase productivity and make agriculture climate-resilient. “We need to promote crop diversification, organic farming and nutrition-rich varieties,” he said.
