Questions
1) How far Regional Rural Banks (RRBs) have been successful in fulfilling the financial needs of agriculture sector and rural economy?
2) What is Dhara Mustard Hybrid-11 (DMH-11? Why there has been opposition to its commercial release? Are hybrid mustard varieties better than local ones?





Looks great! Also highlight lack of profitability. Also more farmers borrow from commercial banks instead of RRBs, so they have not been able to fulfil the mandate. In second section, also add RRBs have the potential to reduce dependence on informal channels of money lending, which typically have higher interest rates. Rest is awesome!
