His wife and children work with him in the field, whereas an American farmer earns $60000.00 in a year working 80 hours per week. He has a very comfortable life Farming methods are very modern which make farming for an American farmer easier and more convenient. After green revolution doubtless economic condition of farmers improved to some extent but the same economic did not last longer. Agricultural productivity started falling as well as their income also gradually gone down. There are several reasons behind their low economic status the one among is the extravagance nature of farmers. The condition of the farmers in India has not so good.
