See your below text, "grab his land to start industry for poor landless non
farmer" ... It shows that there is link ... But the link is more than that,
farmers produce cotton sell to traders, traders sell it to yarn producers and
it's converted as yarn and becomes cloth, a shirt is made out of the farmers
cotton. A farmer sells 1 Kg of cotton for Say Rs.25, a shirt takes 2 meters of
cloth(roughly), a commodity worth of Rs. 50 becomes a shirt(another commodity)
worth of range from Rs.500 to Rs.2000., average it to (Rs.1000) ... How is this
Rs.950 is added.
Whether this Rs.950 is shared among the people who put their labour in the
whole process? If you say yes, I may recommend you some books on political
economy.
Like wise, if you want to know, how paddy, wheat and sugarcane connected with
industry please write, someone in the mailing list who is good in this subject
will reply you.
But, don't be in the illusion that farmers (suicide) and industry have little
relationship

Your statements are contradictory. If farmers are able to sell their
commodities at higher price they will NOT commit suicide.
I think, the reasons for farmers suicide and price hike are
1/ Future Trading
2/ Greedy 'Accredited Lond Providers' who got loan from the banks on low
interest and lends to the farmers to very high interest.
3/ The removal of 'Quantitative Restrictions on imports proposed by the
World Bank, the IMF and the WTO.
4/ Failed to implement Swaminathan Commission recommendation on MSP(Minimum
Support Price)
5/ Allowing ITC and Cargill to procure directly from the farmers at very low
price.
Other can add more ...
There is nothing wrong if a farmer's kids joins FOSSCOM, It's right should be
welcome.
Why I support free software? If Govt. choose Free software rather propitiatory
the state can save a good amount of money which can be spent on people welfare.
If anyone has detail data how much Indian government spend on proprietary s/w,
please share.

Satlin, Basu, Nehru, Kissinger, Jong, Tito ... I don't know very much about
each one of them. Meanwhile I can say, If Com.Stalin had attended Apex body
meeting for e-governance document stranded and had listened to their debates he
would say, "Comrades, after listened to your discussion, I feel that single and
Free document stranded would be beneficial to the people so please approve it
as comrades from IBM, Sun and RH argues. Meanwhile, I recommend comrades from
NASSCOMM and MAIT to agree with IBM, Sun and RH on single stranded in the
interest of the people. If comrades from NASSCOMM and MAIT can't take decision
by 5:10 PM today, please meet me in my office"
Stalin concluded and looked at his watch it shows 5:00 PM.
