Detailed Solution

Large farmers, moneylenders, traders provide capital to small farmers at a high rate of interest.
Small farmers take out loans from large farmers, moneylenders, or businessmen who provide different agricultural inputs. They give small and underprivileged farmers loans, but they impose very exorbitant interest rates. For four months, they impose a hefty interest rate of 24 per cent. Farmers in need of financial assistance might also borrow money from villagers. As a result, the condition of small and poor farmers gets worse every day. They have no working capital when an agricultural season starts, and they still have the same condition at its conclusion.
