Govt’s paddy procurement increases by 19% till January 29 to 596.98 lakh tonne in Kharif season

01 Feb 2021 Evaluate

Amid farmers' protest at various Delhi borders against three new farm laws, the government's paddy procurement has increased by 19 per cent till January 29, 2021 this kharif marketing season to 596.98 lakh tonne, costing more than Rs 1.12 lakh crore (Rs 1.12 trillion) to the exchequer. In the ongoing Kharif Marketing Season (KMS) 2020-21, Government continues to procure Kharif 2020-21 crops at MSP (minimum support price) from farmers as per existing MSP Schemes. Kharif marketing season starts from October.

The Food Corporation of India and state agencies have procured 596.98 lakh tonne of paddy till January 29, 2021, up 18.92 per cent from 501.97 lakh tonne in the corresponding period of the previous year. About 86.79 lakh farmers have already benefited from the ongoing KMS procurement operations with MSP value of Rs 1,12,709.84 crore. Out of the total purchase of 596.98 lakh tonne, Punjab has contributed 202.77 lakh tonne.

Thousands of farmers, mainly from Punjab, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh, are protesting at various borders of the national capital, seeking repeal of farm laws and a legal guarantee for the MSP system. Eleven rounds of talks between the Centre and around 40 farmer unions have failed to break the deadlock.
