    Question 2.
    \nHow are the high interest rates on loans harmful?
    \nAnswer:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Getting loans at high interest rates means a larger part of the earning of the borrowers is used to repay the loans.<\/li>\n
    • So the borrowers will have less income left for themselves.<\/li>\n
    • In certain cases, the high interest rate of borrowing can mean that the amount to be repaid is greater than the income of the borrower.<\/li>\n
    • The debt will be increasing day by day.<\/li>\n
    • High interest rates and increasing debt sometimes make the farmers depressed and in some cases force them to commit suicides.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Question 3.
      \nWhat is the basic idea behind the SHGs for the poor? Explain in your own words.
      \nAnswer:<\/p>\n

      • To create self-employment opportunities for the members e.g.: For buying seeds, fertilizers, raw materials, for acquiring assets like sewing machines, hand-looms, cattle, etc.<\/li>\n
      • These groups are meant to make women financially self-reliant.<\/li>\n

          \nWhat is the difference between the bank loans and through SHG?
          \nAnswer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
          Loans through the banks<\/td>\nLoans through the SHGs<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
          1. Bank loans require proper documents and collateral.<\/td>\n1. Collateral usually kept by banks is not necessary.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
          2. Banks sanction loans to all sections of people.<\/td>\n2. SHGs generally sanction loans to rural poor, especially women.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
          3. Loans are generally sanctioned in the name of the individuals.<\/td>\n3. SHGs sanction loans in the name of the group.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
          4. Bank loans are generally for many purposes.<\/td>\n4. These loans are meant to create self-employment opportunities for the members.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
          5. Recovery of the loan is difficult in case if the individual fails to repay the loan.<\/td>\n5. All the group members are jointly responsible for the repayment of the loan. Hence recovery of the loan is easy.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

          Question 6.
          \nRead the paragraph 3rd under the heading of ‘Self Help Group for the Poor’ and answer the question. How are SHGs working in your area?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
          In recent years, government and Non Government Organisations (NGOs) have tried out some newer ways of providing loans to the poor. The idea is to organise rural poor, in particular women, into small Self Help Groups (SHGs) and pool (collect) their savings. A typical SHG has 15-20 members, usually belonging to one neighbourhood, who meet and save regularly. Saving per member varies from Rs. 25 to Rs. 100 or more, depending on the ability of the people to save. Members can take small loans from the group itself to meet their needs. The group charges interest on these loans but this is still less than what the moneylender charges.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

          \n“Self Help, Groups play a vital role in the women empowerment. They not only provide economic support but also help in eradicating poverty”. Explain the work of a self help group in your village.

          2. All are registered. They voluntarily coming together to save regular small savings of money, mutually agreeing to contribute to a common fund and to meet their emergency needs on the basis of mutual help.<\/li>\n
          3. They pool their resources to become financially stable, taking loans from the money collected by that group and by making everybody in that group self-employed.<\/li>\n
          4. They borrow loans from banks and repay it back regularly.<\/li>\n
          5. An economically poor individual gains strength as a part of a group.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            Question 7.
            \nWhat are the services rendered by the banks in fulfilling the needs of farmers?
            \nAnswer:<\/p>\n

              Question 8.
              \nIs there any incident of farmers committing suicide in your area? If so, find out reasons and make a report, discuss in the classroom by adding a few newspaper clippings related to this issue.
              \nAnswer:
              \nYes. Recently an incident happened at Atmakur village in Anantapur district. There was a 53-year-old farmer in the village. He was a well-respected farmer. He cultivated cotton. He expanded the small plot he owned by leasing adjoining land. The money was never abundant, but he managed to arrange matches and festive wedding ceremonies for his two sisters, and then his daughters. His sons were sent to school.<\/p>\n

              And then, his crop failed – heavy rains washed it out two years ago, drought withered his fields the next. He was defeated not just by insurmountable loans but by the humiliation he felt about the unpaid debt. So he committed suicide.<\/p>\n

              Farmers work from early morning till late night. They wait an entire year to harvest a crop, despite all uncertainty. Most of the farmers are not getting MSP (Minimum Support Price). They are tied to the traders and middlemen who are dealing in agricultural inputs. This depresses the price that farmers are to get for their output. It is time the government implemented the schemes for the welfare of the farmers.<\/p>\n

              Question 1.
              \nWhy do lenders ask for collateral while lending? (Text Book Page No. 109)
              \nAnswer:<\/p>\n

                \n
              • Collateral is an asset that the borrower owns and uses this as a guarantee to a lender.<\/li>\n
              • It is a security or guarantee to a lender until the loan is repaid.<\/li>\n
              • If the borrower fails to repay the ioan, the lender has the right ot sell the asset or collateral to obtain payment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                \nAnswer:<\/p>\n

                  \n
                • Bank loans require collateral.<\/li>\n
                • Absence of collateral is one of the major reasons which prevent the poor from getting bank loans.<\/li>\n
                • In such cases, they approach the moneylenders.<\/li>\n
                • However, the moneylenders charge high interest rates.<\/li>\n
                • Finally the poor may be pushed into a situation from which recovery is very difficult.<\/li>\n
                • Hence the demand for collateral against loans may force the poor to approach informal sources.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                              \nNo, it is not fair. The SHGs are formed to help the poor. If it charges high interest rates, the same problem of access to credit arises. So it is not fair. The interest rate should be reasonable as bank’s.<\/p>\n

                                \nDue to low quality of pesticides, the farmers undergo losses. They are deceived many times in this matter.<\/p>\n

                                2. Role of Moneylenders :
                                \nMoneylenders lend loans on high rate of interest and there will be a restriction to the farmers to sell the crop production for low price to them only. And they will sell production on higher rates. So moneylenders are benefited from both sides.<\/p>\n

                                3. Climate :
                                \nIndian farmers depend on monsoon type of climate. They gamble on monsoon. If sufficient rainfall occurs, farmer will go for better situation. And in case of insufficient rainfall – drought may occur. This leads to worst situation.
                                \nSo, we can guess that pesticides, role of moneylenders, and climate make Swapna’s situation so risky.<\/p>\n
