If you have cultivated mustard and plan to sell it at the Minimum Support Price (MSP), this update is crucial for you. The government has revised the purchase date, allowing farmers to benefit earlier than expected.
Mustard farming has been profitable for farmers, with expectations of a good harvest this year. The government has already announced that mustard, lentils, gram, and moong will be procured at MSP.
The MSP for mustard has been set at ₹5,950 per quintal, ensuring farmers receive a fair price for their produce and increased profitability.
Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini has made a significant decision for farmers by advancing the procurement date under MSP.
The government made this decision considering the high arrival of mustard crops in mandis. This move ensures timely payments for farmers and reduces their waiting time at markets.
Mandatory Registration and Verification:
Farmers must register and verify their details on the "Meri Fasal, Mera Byora" portal to sell mustard at MSP.
Mustard Procurement Agencies:
The HAFED (Haryana State Cooperative Supply and Marketing Federation) and Haryana State Warehousing Corporation will oversee mustard procurement. Additionally, the Mandi Board and other departments have been instructed to prevent any delays.
Payment Within 48 Hours:
The government has assured that farmers selling mustard at MSP will receive payments within 48 hours. This will provide financial relief, helping them plan their next agricultural activities without economic constraints.
Advancing the mustard procurement date by 13 days is a farmer-friendly decision that will allow them to sell their produce earlier and get payments faster. Mandatory registration and proper arrangements have been made to ensure smooth transactions.
With a 48-hour payment guarantee, this initiative will greatly benefit mustard farmers, ensuring they receive the full value of their hard work.
