It was Indian PM's diplomatic acumen removing a bottleneck between US and India over food subsidy issue that led to WTO's adoption of a general agreement to streamline and removal of international border restrictions, duties on goods, free movement, easier customs check etc. for the first time in the world body's history. It will tack to formulate and put down the procedure of flow of goods in black and white by next year, the benefit which India and some other countries will get is these countries get time to continue the food subsidies for one year more by when the WTO AGREEMENT will have been framed and adopted. It is difficult to foresee how Indian farmers and citizen in general will be affected by subsidyless food. Experts will think over that.

Do we need these "World Loot Organization", IMF, WB???
=========================================
All these THIEF ORGANIZATIONS like WTO, IMF, WB are controlled by MNCs from US
---
These MNCs marketed the LEFT OVER CHEMICALS of World War II as fertilizers & Insecticides & made huge profits by destroying the Indian Soil fertility and killing millions of farmers
----
They made false propaganda of a GREEN REVOLUTION which only could save the Indians from FOOD SHORTAGES
-----
Since GREEN REVOLUTION started in the 1960s, FOOD PRODUCTION increased 4-FOLD but not a single grain was produced more because of these chemicals and fertilizers.
------
FOOD PRODUCTION increased 4-FOLD because AREA UNDER CULTIVATION increased 20-FOLD.
-------
This means these CHEMICALS marketed by the MNC criminals as FERTILIZERS have in fact resulted in DECLINE OF LAND PRODUCTIVITY
---------
WHO ARE THESE CRIMINALS TO DICTATE HOW MUCH SUBSIDY WE SHOULD GIVE TO OUR FARMERS???
-----------
KICK OUT THESE AMERICAN COMAPNIES, PHARMAS AND OTHER MNCs FROM INDIA
