The farmers' organization affiliated to the alliance has demanded to promote exports by commercializing the agricultural sector.

The organization has demanded from all three levels of government to build a socialist-oriented economy envisaged by the constitution, moving towards building an independent national economy by bringing prosperity and happiness in the lives of farmers and developing a self-reliant agricultural economy.

In a statement issued by the organization, the previous government has demanded the repeal of the land bank concept given to big corporate houses and foreign multinational corporations despite opposition from farmers 'associations, national farmers' networks and civic organizations related to agriculture and land.

The organization requires farmers to lease their land cheaply, the land bank to give it to local and foreign capitalists at exorbitant prices as per the Public Procurement Act. It has urged in a press release to immediately amend the act and repeal the neo-liberal and anti-land reform system like the Land Bank brought through the Act of 2018.
