1 086
Explanation
The correct answer is only 2.
Key Points
β’ In terms of agriculture and related loans, Schedules Bank accounts for around 70β80% of the total. Statement 1 is untrue, despite the fact that cooperative institutions also contribute significantly to financing the farm sector, which accounts for 15β16% of total financing, and hence less than Scheduled banks.
β’ Either a three-tier or two-tier structure works well for the cooperative banking industry.
β StCB, DCCB, and PACS are part of the three-tier framework.
β Only StCB and PACS are present in the two-tier system.
About DCCBs
β’ Aside from the CEO of the DCCB, who would serve as the member secretary, the Board of the DCCB consists of elected PACS Chairmen, representatives of the State Government, and the State Cooperative Bank.
β’ DCCBs give money to farmers or PACs directly for things like digging wells, buying pump sets for horticulture, caring for animals, and even rural transportation like tractors and other farm equipment. As a result, assertion two is true.

Explanation
The correct answer is Neither 1 or 2.
Key Points
β’ Even if our buffer supply is restricted, procurement is not limitless. Therefore, assertion 1 is untrue.
β’ Statement 2 is untrue since the market price has no relationship to minimum support prices and can fluctuate above or below MSP depending on the market's demand for a crop.
β’ The main goals of establishing MSP are:
β Aid farmers through distress sales
β To get food supplies for public use
β’ The price at which purchased and buffer stock food grains are made available through the PDS is known as the "issue price."
β’ The following 23 crops currently have MSPs fixed by the Center:
β Paddy, wheat, maize, bajra, jowar, ragi, and barley are the seven cereals.
β Chana, arhar/tur, urad, moong, and masur are the 5 pulses.
β 7 oilseeds, including groundnut, sunflower, safflower, sesame, nigerseed, and soy bean.
β Cotton, sugarcane, copra, and raw jute are the four main commercial crops.
