Migration is a growing global phenomenon. There are many causes of migration among which the root causes are conflicts, violence, natural disasters. Many migrants are compelled to move because of poverty and lack of employment opportunities. More than 75% of the world’s poor and food insecure live in rural areas. They mostly depend on agricultural produce for maintaining their livelihood. The rural poor face very much difficulty in accessing credit services and technologies. Migration becomes an important part of the strategies of rural households for improving their livelihoods. In this pandemic situation the migrant workers who were engaged in agricultural work in some other states have faced serious problems. During the lockdown phase when all activities were shut down, they were forced to stop their work. As these people mainly earn on daily wage basis and had little savings, it was very difficult for them to continue staying in faraway land and started returning to their home states. When they reached their home states the government had given permission to start the agricultural work but, these people were unable to engage themselves as they were working in faraway lands. We will focus on the condition of the migrant farmers in other state with comparison to their home states, when they are returning back to their home states due to the pandemic situation caused by COVID-19. We would also try to understand how the present condition of such a concern may be improved.
