Farming - A curse in India?

When i was walking back home on 12th march around 9pm , I saw a huge pile of tomatoes lying on the ground and some people fighting with the stray dogs to get the share of those free tomatoes , as i was wondering as to what's happening there i saw a man gloomily looking at the pile.
As usual my curiosity always wins and i asked him what was all the tamasha about,He told that those tomatoes are the one's that was grown in his farm in Magadi(near Bangalore) which he had got and failed to sell as the retailers were not ready to pay even 2rs/kg.As it would cost him more to transport those back he had left it piled up there.
I remembered my attempt at gardening when i was in 3rd standard or so when we were taught about seed germination, My first patch of coriander leaves from soaked seeds are still a fond memory ,why then? How often do you feel proud of a single tomato or even a bean grown in your small vegetable patch.The farmer sitting there would have felt the same pride and pleasure on his patch too, more so when his livelihood depends on it ,but the sad state is he will not be able to support his family with the earning nor would he feel the pride anymore.
Isn't a person like him who will either fall towards suicide,so that he will get a death amount that will at least keep his family alive, or leave the land untilled and search for some unskilled job in cities ,adding another mouth to be fed,instead of feeding several?
What is happening here is sheer injustice , denying a man of basic amenities who not only works hard for his living but is also responsible for filling all our bellies.
What is our, for the people, by the people ,to the people,government doing on this one ? Right since i was a kid i have always seen that the best thing they do is to waive off farmer loans or announce certain amount of money on death of farmer who commits suicide.
Is it really benefiting the farmer is a question to be asked.. Instead of loan waiver which would mainly help landlords/plantation owners(As i really doubt whether our banks give loans to small scale farmers who really need it), wouldn't fixing a fair price for all food grains/vegetables etc help them ?
Wouldn't a easier method to buy all their products from the farm directly avoid the pain they have to go through ,transporting ,dealing with the middle men ?
Wouldn't usage of cold storage or appropriate storage mechanism after buying help ,Instead of talking about some bullshit story of BT seeds which will make the farmer dependent on others for yet another parameter(How often do you read in news that the government doesn't have enough stock to supply fertilizers/water/current to farmers? It will next be the turn of seeds if this is allowed!)
Is it so difficult to carry out some measures, when it is a question of lives of crore's of people who depend on agriculture ,also noting that at the end we all need food to live and it is a matter of our nation's self sufficiency too?
Now if anyone says forget government there are countless NGO's and microfinance which helps them finance the question we need to ask is are they really helping,as we read many many scandals..
At the end of this write up the problem of those countless farmer still exists and there is some farmer drinking the pesticide to kill the weeds to kill himself of all the miseries he is facing abandoning his wife and kids to the mercy of fate..
