The government has decided to add 56,800 tonnes of storage capacity for the vegetable in three different states. As per information provided by Joint Secretary in Agriculture Ministry Shakil Ahammed, the government will add storage facilities in Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Odisha in order to reduce wastage of onions.
As per the plans, about 38,000 tonnes of storage capacity will be added in Madhya Pradesh, 12,000 tonnes in Maharashtra and 6,800 tonnes in Odisha. The government expects that this step will help smooth supply of onion across the year and prices will also remain under control.
Further, this will also help farmers as in case of higher production they can store their crop rather than selling it on throw-away prices.
