Solution
The correct option is A 1 only
Explanation:
Statement 1 is correct. It creates a national framework for contract farming. The written farming agreement, entered into prior to the production or rearing of any farm produce, lists the terms and conditions for supply, quality, grade, standards, and price of farm produce and services.
Statement 2 is incorrect. It defines a dispute resolution mechanism. The Act provides for a three-level dispute settlement mechanism– Conciliation Board, Sub-Divisional Magistrate, and Appellate Authority.
