Yes, farmers suicide is a burning issue and a social problem. Heavy indebtedness, irregular monsoon, rising cost of cultivation are various reasons that have led to a series of suicides committed by farmers. The action of killing oneself deliberately is suicide.

When an individual becomes unstable and enters in the state of dilemma and commits suicide it is an anomic suicide. In the Indian context the farmers suicides fall under the type of anomic suicide. Because of economic instability marginal farmers tend to commit suicide.
