Telangana Farmers Protest as Cotton Prices Fall Below MSPCotton farmers in Telangana have staged protests over declining prices, alleging that traders in the Khammam agricultural market yard are purchasing cotton below the government-declared Minimum Support Price (MSP).Farmers claim that even Cotton Corporation of India (CCI) is not offering the expected support, with prices falling significantly short of the MSP of ₹7,521 per quintal. According to growers, the highest price received was around ₹6,850 per quintal, and that too by only a few farmers, while many were forced to sell at even lower rates of ₹6,400 per quintal.Expressing disappointment, farmers said they had anticipated prices between ₹8,000 and ₹11,000 per quintal. The current situation, they argue, is leading to heavy financial losses.Adding to their concerns, farmers have accused traders of manipulating prices by manually assessing the moisture content of cotton instead of using standard machines. They allege that a trader syndicate is influencing rates unfairly.Despite intervention by District Collector Muzamil Khan, who visited the market yard and warned traders against violating MSP norms, farmers claim that the ground situation remains unchanged.Meanwhile, K. Praveen Kumar Reddy, Secretary of the Khammam cotton market yard, stated that notices have been issued to traders and further action will be taken after reviewing their responses.Currently, around 45,000 bags of cotton are arriving daily at the Khammam market yard from across the erstwhile district, intensifying pressure on procurement and pricing systems.Read More :- CCI Begins Cotton Procurement at Minimum Support Price in Five States

Due to new CCI guidelines, cotton procurement in the former Karimnagar was halted.The cotton procurement process has come to a complete halt in the erstwhile Karimnagar district as all 11 ginning mills in the region have suspended operations in protest against the recently introduced guidelines by the Cotton Corporation of India (CCI).The new CCI guidelines mandate a sequential allocation of mills using a serial numbering system (L-1, L-2, L-3, etc.), with procurement starting at the first mill and progressing according to the assigned order. Mill owners argue that this policy could disadvantage those assigned lower numbers, leaving them without sufficient cotton for purchase once higher-priority mills have completed their intake.Since Monday morning, the suspension of procurement has affected all 11 ginning mills in the district. However, officials remain optimistic that the issue will be resolved soon, as discussions between CCI representatives and mill owners are currently underway.
