Scenarios about 'agricultural subsidies'
Agricultural subsidies are government financial support programs designed to protect farmers from market fluctuations and ensure food security by maintaining agricultural production.

Agricultural subsidies remain controversial for their economic distortions, environmental impacts, and role in shaping alternative economic development paths for nations.
