Problems of agricual in Bangladesh

Bangladesh is an agricultural country.Most of our people live in villages and depend on agriculture.Our economy is mainly agro-based.The few industries we have depend on agricultural products.So agriculture is the heart of our country.

Bangladesh is rich in agriculture resources. She has fertile land,fresh water,suitable climate and cheap manpower to produce crops.Almost all kinds of crops are grown on our land.We need not irrigate our land during the monsoon.We need to irrigate our fields only during the dry seasons.We have enough sources of surface water and underground water to do it.

Bangladesh is a potential for fish and shrimp culture.Buy using our fresh water we can produce more fish and shrimp.Buy expording them we can change our lot.

Most of our farmer are illiterate.But they are not ignorant.They are very clever and they are more hard working than the farmers of any other country.The increased produntion of recent years prove this fact.

In spite of many advantages our farmers have problems.The main problem is the ownership of the land.Most of the farmers do not have their own cultivable land.They do not have enough capital to cultivate the land.

They cannot buy good seeds, fertiliser, necessary machines ,tools,diesel,insecticides,etc.they cannot use electricity properly . Besides,load-sedding is another problem.Who depend on electricity for irrigation.

Marleting of a agricultural products has been a great problem for the farmers.The prizes of all crops go down during the harvesting season and go up before the harvesting period.Lack of good communication is also a great problem.

Steps should be taken to solve these problems.We have to solve our farmers problems for the sake of our national economy and development of the country.
