A STUDY ON SUPPLY CHAIN DISRUPTIONS CAUSED BY FARMERS’ PROTEST

Abstract

This exemplary study will provide more information on farmers' protests in India. With the help of secondary resources, data is collected online such as journal articles, videos, and news. The study aims to conclude why Indian farmers are protesting against three farm debts, so-called Indian farmers' debts over how long the protests lasted and the supply chain disruptions caused by the Indian protests. After the Indian Parliament passed the new farm rules in September 2020, protests erupted across the country, especially in the Punjab, Haryana, and western Uttar Pradesh farmers' union with the slogan "Delhi Chalo" which means we are headed for Delhi. the capital of India. Indian farmers are struggling through the cold winters and hot summers on the outskirts of Delhi, protesting and insisting that the government cancel new farm debts that they feel are against farmers and favor big corporate entrepreneurs. This case study will answer why farmers are upset with the three new farm debts and their reasons for protesting against the Indian government to cancel the three farm debts. The objective of this case study is to seek reasons why Indian farmers are against three farm loans, why farmers are upset about these three farm loans, why the Indian government has introduced such types of loans, and how much the economy has lost in the SCD (supply chain disruptions). The motive is mainly to answer these questions and information shared with the people of the world and to make them aware of why Indian farmers are protesting against the Indian government about the three farm debt and its negative impact. economy and supply chain. Therefore, detailed information will be provided about the protest and a solution will be provided at the end which is likely to be a solution. The term "transport disruption" refers to a distribution halt that has a negative impact on SC performance and consumer safety. The model includes hazards and vulnerability as risk sources. The entire supply chain has been severely disrupted by disruption events such as the COVID-19 epidemic. Vulnerability referred to a system's vulnerability to the point that mitigation mechanisms are compromised. Transportation disruption risk management required decision-making at every level of the process, including risk and vulnerability assessment, risk analysis, and risk mitigation measures. Farmers' unrest has 6 produced supply chain disruptions, which will have an impact on the economy in the coming days and may threaten the current recovery from COVID-19's economic crisis. The farmers' protest, which lasted from December 2020 to November 2021, caused traffic jams and road blockades at a number of checkpoints across the northern states of Delhi NCR, Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, and Rajasthan, as well as to a lesser extent in many other areas. The already stressed supply system has been further strained as it recovers from the pandemic-induced closure. In this study, the effects of ongoing Farmer protests in response to the Farm Bills that were converted to the Farm Act last year are being investigated. The focus of the case will be on the supply chain disruptions caused by the incident. In addition, the overall impact of the event on India's economy, including GDP ramifications, will be investigated.
