Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal on Sunday said that adequate arrangements have been made for wheat procurement in the state.
“Mandis are not overcrowded. Due to moisture in the weather, the crop is coming ten days late to the mandis,” the Chief Minister said while interacting with mediapersons at PWD rest house in Karnal.
He said that all the farmers have been registered on the portal for bringing their wheat crop to the procurement centres. However, crops of those farmers whose crops are harvested early would also be procured without a schedule. The purchase schedule of all such farmers would be made as per their convenience, he said.
The Chief Minister said that because of the moisture in wheat, there is a delay in the arrival of the crop even though the government has started the procurement of wheat from April 1, itself.
The farmers do face difficulty in the first one or two days of procurement. Karnal farmers were facing difficulty in the procurement of their early crops but now after holding talks with the Deputy Commissioner, the purchase schedule would be made as per the requirement of the farmers, he added.
Farmers need not worry, every grain of their crop will be purchased, Khattar said.
