PATIALA: District Mandi District Officer in Patiala turned a farmer trolley published by rice because of higher water content than the boundaries permitted in grain.
In three days, farmers who carry their products in more than 150 trolleys are not allowed to dismantle their grains.
On the Nabha Division only, 40 trolleys were rejected on Wednesday, while 20 trolleys were rejected on Thursday.
On Friday, seven trolleys published with rice yields were not permitted to reduce grains because the water content was higher than 17%.

On Friday, around 60,000 Mt Paddy arrived at the Patiala district grain market.
So far, around 4.5 LMT Paddy has arrived at the grain market.

There are around 103 ordinary grain markets, while administration has increased the number of temporary grain markets up to 105.
On Friday, farmers must wait long or lower their rice on the road in Saman, Patran and Patiala follow the lack of space.
“We unfortunately turned some trolleys loaded by Paddy because their water content is beyond the allowance.
We appeal to farmers to bring dry products, because time they will not be wasted,” said Patiala Bathroom Ajypal officer.
President BKU (Krantikari) Ranjit Singh said farmers were harassed on water content and officials failed to regulate space for their products.
