Ninety percent of the people of the village where the farmers of munger belong
are connected with agriculture. All have suffered severe distress and crisis
during the Corona period. They hoped that by selling the crop produced by
farming at the right price, would help them to stand again. But now the
situation is that there is no system of procurement of paddy at the government
level. On the other hand, the economic status of most of the farmers did not
remain that they could hold the paddy till good price was obtained. So they are
forced to sell paddy to middlemen at a quarter to one price. Farmers of
munger said, “ If we let go of this opportunity, then the season of his next
harvest will pass out. In the coming days, they will be sowing wheat crop in
their fields.
Farmers of Munger detailed losses
ripening, there was an outbreak of insects on that standing crop. The situation
was so dire that even laborers were not available for help. The disadvantage of
this was that three quarters of the finished crop fell to insects. Now the
concern of how those families will be raised from a quarter crop is haunting
them. On the other hand, the farmers of Munger also informed about the
business of middlemen. He said that selling paddy at three-fourths of the
government rate is a compulsion because they have no money. With this
money, the next crop and family is to be fed. Now the situation is that apart
from buying the crop at a cheaper price, middlemen are weighing paddy up to
45 kg instead of forty kg. The farmer is compelled to bear it because of his
compulsion, as at present there is nothing on the ground of reality other than
the declaration from the government.
