This study on farmers’ suicides is done by Indo-Global Social Service Society (IGSSS) through its local partner the Baitarani Initiative. This study was attempted to understand if farmers’ suicides were just a desperate reaction to events like droughts and crop loss or there were more fundamental roots.


This study explores whether it is a failure of the state in providing relief to the farmers or its policies which have driven them to such a desperate situation in a slow and steady manner.


The study is also aimed at developing a comprehensive understanding of farmers’ suicides in Odisha, through the cases of 30 farmers, who either committed suicide or empted it.


This report tries to provide compelling queries and experiences that were gathered during the process of this study.
