Nagpur: After getting a recording price for cotton, farmers in Vidarbha are hit by a decline in tours.
This is the main plant of the three regions that are sprinkled between cotton plant lines.
Even if cotton takes high prices, the results are also low.
This has triggered an increase because of the high prices for the most part, the farmer said.
However, the offer of reduced tours, has not made a big impact on the price.
Traders and agricultural activists say they are alert whether the lack of output can even attract prices.
This is because of the import of a large-scale tour.
Supply from abroad can maintain low prices.
For consumers, the Dal tour forms a part of the diet in most countries.
A rain attack and fog, just before the harvest in January ended, had left a big impact on the tour yield.
An official at the Ministry of Agriculture said plants had been influenced by withered, fungal diseases that made plants dry.
The source in the department puts a loss of around 25% of the normal average.
On the other hand, TOI farmers speak to put up a higher figure.
The tour took prices in the range of Rs5,500 to RS6,200 Quintal.
The best class is getting prices above RS6,000.
MSP also ranges from RS6,000 and RS6.300 Quintal depending on the value.
The price was the same as it last year.
Farmers say they need to get more to cover losses.
Anup Chavan, a farmer in Bodbodhan Village in Yavatamal District, said there was a farmer whose output dropped to 3-4 quintals like against 7-10 quintals last year.
Amitabh Pawde, an agricultural activist from Nagpur, said even when the five-year period to import pulses from Mozambique was over, supplies continued.
This is expected to keep the check price.
“Not just garbage, even grams harvested in March are expected to be low.
The losses may be more in the northern state,” he said.
Kishore Tiwari, Chairperson of Vasantrao on Shetkari Swavage Mission, also said that free imports can keep prices low despite falling in the output.
Fall in a tour yield, but it hasn’t had an impact on the price
