What is the policy measure adopted by the Government of India to improve the system of agricultural marketing?
Detailed Explanation:
Public Distribution System (PDS) ensures food security through subsidized distribution of foodgrains to vulnerable sections.
Minimum Support Price (MSP) guarantees remunerative prices to farmers and protects them from price fluctuations during surplus production.
Buffer Stock is maintained by FCI (Food Corporation of India) to ensure availability during shortages and stabilize market prices.
All three measures — PDS, MSP, and Buffer Stock — are integral components of India's agricultural marketing and food security framework, making Option 4 (More than one of the above) correct.
