When an article says about 90% of a state's farming households have an average debt of about a lakh, it looks like a bleak picture. But I don't think all of these are distressed. It's quite routine for many to borrow at the beginning of the season. And it would've been interesting to know if these numbers have spiked in the last few years where there has been a slew of loan waivers.
