This is such a sad story all around. Farmer laws require amendments to remove middle mens. Farmers are not ready to accept those due to missinformation.The prices have stagnated for farmers due to middlemen getting all benefits of inflation. The government is to be blamed for the handling of the entire protest in a particular part of country. Their is no third party solving this issue. Farmers need to get away from being stuck in a stalemate and ask for third option.

The protests are for MSP. It's the price at which the government buys the produce from the farmers. There are no middlemen involved in this transaction.
