STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS

The Tamil Nadu Agricultural Produce Marketing (Regulation) Act, 1987 (Tamil Nadu Act 27 of 1989) envisages free trade practices. The farmer has the liberty to sell their agricultural produce in any market of his choice. Efforts are being made to dispense with cash transactions, by migrating to digital mode. The said Act needs to be amended to suit the present day requirements of digital technology in marketing / trading in a larger scale, for better price discovery to farmers and to protect their interest.

2. Keeping in view the above objects, the Government, in G.O. (3D) No. 24, Agriculture-Farmers Welfare (AM3) Department, dated 31.3.2022 constituted a High Level Committee with 13 members to recommend and suggest appropriate changes for the better functioning of Market Committees and Regulated Markets. On considering the various objections and suggestions received from the stakeholders, the High Level Committee has recommended certain amendments to the said Act.

3. After careful consideration of the recommendations of the said High Level Committee, the Government have decided to amend the Tamil Nadu Agricultural Produce Marketing (Regulation) Act, 1987 (Tamil Nadu Act 27 of 1989) suitably for the purpose.

4. The Bill seeks to give effect to the above decision.
