The existing situation of agriculture products in our country is not that satisfacrory.The country has to import certain foods from India and some othe countries.Our annual production is less than what is expected.The farmers of Nepal face many problems which can only be solved in an organized way.Attempts have often been made by the government to increase our agricltural produce.The planning commission has made both short and long term plans for this.
