The news that broke across the country recently is about a frustrated farmer, Abdul Malek Shikder, who sets his paddy plants ablaze out of frustration of low price in Tangail’s Kalihati upazila. The news has shocked the nation. It is hard to believe that the farmer himself sprayed kerosene on part of his golden field. The prices of paddy have kept falling in the last several months owing to a good harvest in the previous three crop seasons.
