Govt. Approves Moong and Groundnut Procurement Under PSS

The government is buying moong and groundnut crops from farmers at a guaranteed price to help them.

They'll buy moong from Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, and Gujarat, and groundnut from Uttar Pradesh.

This Price Support Scheme ensures farmers get a fair price, even if market prices are low.

The government increased the minimum prices for these crops, which aims to encourage farmers to grow more and reduce the need for imports.

This is part of a larger plan to support farmers' income and promote self-sufficiency in pulses.
