Scrapping of Farm Laws- Who Won, Who lost?

No. of Farmers in India- 118900000 (Cultivators, excludes agri labourers)

No. of Farmers Protesting- 50,000 to 80,0000 (Say 1 lakh)

Farmers who won due to scrapping- ~ 0.084 % (Say 1%)

Why were the laws recommended by multiple committees in the last 20 years?

=> Price of onion in retail market is 20 times more than what the farmer gets. Why?

Ideology Behind the Issue: 

Is privatization of agriculture good or bad? 

For example: 

1. If a Jiomart is within 1km and a APMC Mandi is 5km, should a farmer be allowed to sell in Jiomart? (He is mandated to sell in Mandi now)

2. If not privatization, how do we remove the middlemen who exploit farmers and who now almost own these Mandis?

3. Is it easier to invest in upgradation of the Mandis and make them transparent or is it better to invest in giving farmers the required know-how of contracts so that they can deal with private companies on their own? (As in under the laws)

4. Do farmers need to be protected (socialist idea), or do farmers need to be only guided while market demand and supply determines prices for them (capitalist idea)? 

My View:

I lean towards capitalism in my ideology. I feel that's the only one that has worked over the years in any country. Even China had to let private enterprises flourish to become the largest economy in the world. And I feel socialist ideas held us back. 

What next? 

Farmers are India's biggest entrepreneurs and risk takers, and as it is said "There is nothing more powerful than an idea whose time has come". If the entire country is privatising (almost every PSU slowly getting disinvested, startup culture getting strong, IPO, stock market, crypto, corporate bond market coming up) then there in no way agriculture will remain controlled. 

My guess is, whatever the farm laws intended to do will happen without them automatically as a slow progression of an idea whose time has come.
