Punjab Flood Crisis: Early Paddy Procurement Begins For Affected Farmers | India Today News

Paddy procurement has begun in Punjab, 15 days ahead of its usual start on October 1. The decision follows severe floods that have affected farmers across 23 districts and damaged more than 1,98,000 hectares of cropland. The government has set a Minimum Support Price (MSP) of 2389 per quintal and states there is a commitment that "each and single grain of it is to be lifted". While 1822 mandis across the state have been prepared for the process, with 48 operational from today, procurement will be delayed in 10 to 15 grain markets. These are currently serving as shelters for flood-affected families. The early start presents a challenge for both the administration and the farmers dealing with the flood's aftermath. #punjabfloods #paddyprocurement #punjab #itwebvideos #Indiatoday #farmers #agriculture #msp #indiatoday #floodcrisis #cropdamage #punjabnews #mohali #kharif #indianagriculture #floodaftermath #government Subscribe to India Today for NEW VIDEOS EVERY DAY and make sure to enable Push Notifications so you'll never miss a new video.
