Karni Sena Fights For Farmers’ Cause
Khachrod (Madhya Pradesh): Members of Rashtriya Rajput Karni Sena and local farmers’ organisations demanded an increase in procurement price of soybean crop. A memorandum, addressed to Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan, was submitted to the sub-divisional officer’s office.
Members were led by the Rashtriya Rajput Karni Sena president Jitendra Singh Keshariya and district president Jitendra Singh Tulheda. During the submission, janpad president Prithviraj Singh Panwar highlighted the significant challenges faced by soybean farmers in the Malwa Nimar region, where soybean is often referred to as “yellow gold.”
Panwar pointed out that despite the high expectations for the Kharif season, farmers have been experiencing disappointment due to government policies over the past several years. He noted that soybean is currently being sold below the support price, leading to widespread anger among farmers who are struggling to cover costs associated with fertilisers, labour and fuel.
Farmers have been grappling with soaring debt andálow income, along with extreme weather conditions that are hurting their harvests.
