Government Initiates Paddy Procurement at MSP

Government Initiates Paddy Procurement at MSP

The government has started buying paddy from farmers at a guaranteed price called MSP in Panvel, Maharashtra.

This is to help farmers who were having trouble selling their paddy and had to store it at home.

The local leader, Panvel MLA Prashant Thakur, helped start this process after farmers complained about the delays.

Now, farmers can sell their paddy at the government center and get a fair price.

This will help them improve their financial situation.

The unloading of paddy has already started, and the official buying will begin on Thursday.

A local leader thanked the officials for making this happen, which will benefit many farmers in the Panvel area.
