Haryana Focuses on Farmer Welfare

The Haryana Agriculture Minister, Shyam Singh Rana, held a meeting to talk about how to help farmers.

He said the government will make sure there is enough money for farmer welfare programs.

They discussed how to save water, manage crop waste, and encourage farmers to grow crops that need less water.

The minister also talked about the importance of soil testing and using it to give farmers good advice.

He wants farmers to use less chemicals and more natural methods to grow food.

Many important officials were there to talk about these plans.

Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini also spoke about how Haryana helped Punjab during a recent natural disaster, but criticized the Punjab government for not doing enough to support its people.

He highlighted Haryana's farmer-friendly policies, like buying crops at a fair price and giving money to farmers who lose their crops or animals.

He also mentioned that Haryana is the first state where all crops are bought at a fair price, and farmers get paid quickly.

The minister also asked officials to create local markets for fish farmers so they can sell their fish without traveling far.
