Karnal, October 17(Press Ki Taquat)<\/strong><\/p>\n

The suspension of basmati purchase by rice exporters, millers and arhtiyas owing to the Centre\u2019s decision to maintain the minimum export price (MEP) at $1,200 per tonne have hit farmers badly. It has reduced the price of basmati 1509 by Rs 500-600 per quintal in various grain markets of the state. Farmers are forced to sell their produce at the will of traders, who are purchasing this variety by ignoring the suspension of purchase.<\/p>\n

Naresh Kumar, a farmer, said, \u201cThe involvement of exporters in the procurement always gives good prices to 1509 variety-growing farmers, but due to the strike, the prices have come down drastically. The government should resolve the issue at the earliest.\u201d Mahabir, a farmer from Kurukshetra district, said due to this strike, farmers had been losing around Rs 15,000-17,000 per quintal.<\/p>\n

Rajnish Chaudhary, president, Karnal Arhtiyas Association, said despite the strike announced jointly by the exporters, millers and arhtiyas, some of them have been purchasing the 1509 variety at throwaway prices, due to which farmers have been suffering. \u201cIf there is a strike, it should be observed completely by all stakeholders,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Apart from it, labourers and employees associated with this sector have been without work and almost no income.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe government had some queries, which we have cleared. We demand the government to resolve the issue to protect the interest of farmers, exporters and other stakeholders involved in this business,\u201d said Vijay Setia, former president, All India Rice Exporters Association (AIREA).<\/p>\n

He said for smooth business and credibility of Indian exporters in the foreign market, the government should immediately review the price fixed for exports. He maintained that out of 45 lakh tonnes of exports, Haryana exports 18-20 lakh tonnes every year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
