It’s important to critically examine models like **Kisaan से**, which claim to "empower" farmers, while the actual benefits often remain concentrated at the top, in the hands of corporate leaders like Mr. corporate Although these ventures present themselves as saviors for Indian agriculture, the fundamental issue is that they often maintain the traditional power structures. By creating a corporate-driven system, they exclude farmers from positions of influence and decision-making. For true empowerment, we need to see models where farmers are not just suppliers but also entrepreneurs**, **directors**, and **stakeholders in the value chain. Anything short of this-whether it's named Kisaan Se, Kisaan Tak, or similar-risks being nothing more than a gimmick that uses the face of rural development for profit maximization. The focus must shift towards cooperative structures or **farmer-owned enterprises**, where the profits and control stay in the hands of those working the land. Until that happens, any corporate-driven "agriculture transformation" will only further entrench the wealth disparity in this sector
