Abstract

This study examines the socio-economic status of farmers in Haryana, India, focusing on their income levels, land holdings, education, access to credit, and social challenges such as indebtedness. The objectives were to assess the socio-economic profile, identify factors influencing their economic conditions, and explore the impact of government policies on their livelihoods. Findings reveal that small and marginal farmers dominate the agricultural landscape, with significant dependence on informal credit sources and limited access to modern technology. The study highlights the need for targeted policy interventions to address indebtedness and promote sustainable agricultural practices.
