A2+FL covers actual paid cost and unpaid family labour. C2 includes all actual expenses in cash and kind incurred in production and rent paid for leased land, imputed value of family labour plus interest paid In the last few years, the government has been giving MSP above 50% based on cost A2+FL, which is to be continued as per this Budget.
