Answer 1

The correct option is B Both the statements are false.

The agricultural policy of 2018 tried to reduce the bureaucratic burdens on farmers and agricultural labourers. This policy also removed the restrictions on exporting organic and processed agricultural products from India to other countries. The restriction was removed to expose native farmers to overseas markets where they could get a good price for the organic products they produced.
