Swaminathan for setting up Indian trade organisation
Eminent agriculture scientist M.S. Swaminathan has called for setting up an Indian trade organisation as a national counterpart of the WTO. Addressing an "International Conference on Natural Rubber Extension and Development,' organised by the Rubber Board, he said there was need to segregate the support extended to farmers for their livelihood and the support for commodities that could be considered trade distorting in the global market. Agriculture exports accounted for only 6.2 per cent of the total agriculture production.
