Good news for farmers: starting on March 20, procurement will be done at support price.
For the farmers of Gram Panchayat Barkhedi Alampura, there is good news. Beginning on March 20, procurement at the support price will take place, and farmers are displaying great excitement about this. The Madhya Pradesh government has announced a bonus of Rs 125 per quintal, while the Central government has set the support price at Rs 2275 per quintal. As a result, the procurement center will sell farmers' wheat for Rs 2400 per quintal.
Many farmers in the village of Aalampura have also charged that the government has not kept its word. The government, according to the farmers, has betrayed them by purchasing wheat at a rate of Rs. 2400 instead of Rs. 2700 per quintal, which is bad news for the farmers. It's a betrayal.
