Kerala CM announces ‘Land Reforms 2.0’ and comprehensive agriculture policy · thestatesman.com

The leader of Kerala, a state in India, made a big announcement to help farmers.

He wants to update old land rules so unused farms can grow different crops and welcome visitors.

This is called 'Land Reforms 2.0'.

He also wants to sell Kerala's spices and farm products all over the world under one special name, the 'Kerala Brand'.

To keep animals from eating crops, the government will use smart computers and fences.

Farmers who grow rubber will get more money for it, and help for damaged crops will be bigger.

The leader also said farmers will be paid on time.

He wants to use a new big port to send products to other countries faster and cheaper.

All these plans are meant to be a 'friend' to farmers and make farming better for everyone.
