This time of planting winter crops in Terai-Madhesh, the farmers' backs have been burned by the use of urea fertilizers. This situation of forcing farmers to pay high prices for fertilizers is not new.

The government is aware of the past that farmers wandered in search of fertilizer even during planting, but their eyes and ears are closed. Farmers, who provide food security to the country, have been suffering from discrimination and indifference of the state for years.
In an agricultural country like Nepal, agriculture has never been a priority of the government. Ministers can spend crores on foreign tours, build a view tower in a mountainous country, but cannot open a single factory to supply fertilizers to farmers. Due to such leadership, the country's farmers have been left without guardians for years. The vision and mission of the leaders never rose above fleeting and cheap popularity. Middlemen and corruption have plagued the mainstream of the agrarian country. Basic services like fertilizers, seeds and irrigation were never neglected by the government. The farmers of Terai-Madhesh are waiting for fertilizers and are unable to plant winter crops and dry crops. Due to the indifference of the government and neglect of the farmers, the youth are fleeing. Cultivable land is barren in hilly and mountainous areas. Government policy makers do not understand the value of farmers' sweat.
The three-level federal government and the strong leadership of almost two-thirds should solve the farmers' problems. If the leadership is incompetent to open a fertilizer factory, there is no point in keeping such incompetent leadership in the chair. This situation in an agricultural country is the result of the short-sightedness of the Ministry of Agriculture. There is a need for a plan that can guarantee food security to farmers, talk alone is not going to do anything. Fertilizer scarcity, middlemen's mafia and state's indifference towards farmers cannot be tolerated anymore. The good of this country begins only with the respect of the farmers. The state should now pay the right price for the labor and sweat of the farmers.
