Farmers may suffer loss eben when there is good harvest

1.	Farmers may suffer loss eben when there is good harvest
Answer» Owing to their poverty (and immediate need for cash) farmers are often driven to a distressed sale of their produce. But good harvest causes a glut (of supply) in the market. This causes a price-crash. The price may fall so much that the total revenue of the farmer decreases even when his output/sale is more than before.<br>Owing to their poverty (and immediate need for cash) farmers are often driven to a distressed sale of their produce.
