Jabalpur, September 20 (IANS). The biggest problem for Farmers of the Jabalpur district of Madhya Pradesh has now become a shortage of urea and DAP -Mis. Farmers from many areas, including Shahpura, Charagwan, Belkheda, Takkheda, have been looking for fertilizer for the past few days. Despite the time of sowing of peas, farmers are upset and angry due to the availability of fertilizers. For the distribution of fertilizers, farmers have been getting long lines from farmers at Shahpura Agricultural Produce Market Complex and Double Lock Center since the morning. Hungry and thirsty farmers are waiting for hours, but the fertilizer is not available on time. The administration also had to deploy the police force to handle the situation. Farmer Jitendra Singh told the Ians news agency that we have been in line since 15:00. I got a sign of number 180; They have been waiting since the morning without eating anything, but does not get fertilizer. At the same time, another farmer said that Dap was aligned from 05:00 to get fertilizer, but fertilizer was not found. The stock of urea is in the warehouse, but the spread is not done. Another farmer told me that my sign was cut on August 22, but I was worried about fertilizer for a month. Compost is not available, not even after a repeated line. In this case, the agricultural officer SK Parateti said that fertilizer is provided to the farmers based on signs. Farmers whose number has already been recorded are taking precedence. He said the new consignment of urea will come by Monday Tuesday and since the fertilizer will be available, it will be distributed to the farmers. Farmers say they raised the demand for the supply of fertilizer several times before, but the problem was not solved. The administration claims that they have sufficient stock daily, but in the soil reality, farmers are forced to return even after hours of empty hand. -Ians psk shares this story tags
