Cotton farmers in Vidarbha, India, are facing a labor shortage during the crucial harvest season. The shortage is attributed to government welfare schemes like Ladki Bahin, which provide financial assistance, making farm work less appealing. This has forced farmers to increase wages, further impacting their income already hit by low crop yields and market prices.
