Purchase of wheat accelerates still increases a matter of concern

The purchase of wheat in the grain mandist of ambala is in full swing, but there is concern about the slow upliftment of the stock between farmers and commission agents. This year, wheat was sown in about 91,000 hectares in the district. According to the data, procurement agencies 97.748 MT (MT) wheat bought from 15 grain mandis and procurement centers. However, until Tuesday night, only 29 percent stock (28.131 metric tons) was lifted. Although stakeholders expressed satisfaction with the quality of the crop and yield, they described the sluggish uplift as a major challenge. Duni Chand, the patron of the Haryana State ADhati Association, said: “The purchase season is at its peak, but the elevator is a problem. Some farmers also bring more moisture yields, which take time to dry and reduce space. Malkit Singh, a farmer from the Sahabpura village, said: “Our crop was good this year. This time it is about 23 quintal at the average yield of 20 quintal per field last year. The weather was favorable and the quality of the grain is good.” Share this story -tags
