Amid protests in Haryana and Punjab, Centre on Saturday had gone back on its prior decision to postpone procurement to October In its earlier announcement, Centre had cited delay in maturity of paddy grain and high moisture content due to untimely rainfall in September as the reason for postponing procurement. While procurement has officially started, protests continued in parts of Haryana over the slow rate of procurement.
In grains markets in Karnal, farmers claim they were unable to sell their produce even after two days. Paddy procurement was officially due to start on October 1 in Punjab and September 25 in Haryana. Farmers had made the necessary arrangements and harvested grains had already started arriving in mandis even before the October 1 announcement, said Vijay Kalra, Vice Chairman of Punjab Mandi Board.
In the interactive below, hover over each stage of paddy production to learn more about the procurement timeline in Punjab and Haryana this year. Paddy with moisture content higher than the Food Corporation of India FCI limit of 17 per cent is liable to be rejected at procurement centres. Also the grain will become vulnerable to shriveling, blackening, discolouration and prone to infestation.
Instead, the Centre had said that the better course would be to harvest the paddy crop offered after 10 days, when proper maturity is reached and the problem of moisture in the grain can be minimised.
There was no need to delay procurement for all paddy. In Haryana and Punjab, the paddy matures very quickly. Farmers use short-maturity varieties. Sowing starts by June 15 and if it is a variety with a 3-month maturity period, then it is ready for harvest by September Our demand was that the procurement should start at the latest by September Farmers have already been bringing paddy in large quantities to mandis.
Heaps of harvested paddy crop, that are simply lying in mandis, have been damaged due to rainfall. The farmer has been affected by rainfall this year, be it in terms of the mature crop lying in mandis or the standing crop in fields.
Instead of providing relief for rainfall damage, the cruel government still wanted to go ahead with the October 1 procurement date. And also tried postponing it to October High moisture content in paddy is not related to the maturing process. Presence of moisture depends on drying or not drying the paddy.
The moisture present in the crop can be dried now in the same manner as it could be dried after October 11 — the drying process is the same. Harvesting began and paddy has been arriving in mandis for 15 days now. The Centre says that moisture content in the crop will be lower after 11 days. What kind of logic is that?
