*Heavy rains have caused significant damage to cotton and soybean crops in the district: Weather impacts income; government support inadequate*This year, heavy and uncontrolled rainfall across Yavatmal district, including Babhulgaon, has damaged thousands of hectares of cotton and soybean crops. Approximately nine lakh hectares of land are cultivated in Yavatmal district alone. However, heavy rains have caused significant damage in several revenue divisions. Millions of hectares of crops have been submerged. The weather has had a severe adverse impact on income. Currently, farmers have not even received their inputs. Crops like cotton, soybean, pigeon pea, and chickpea are not fetching expected market prices, leading to a significant decline in income.Irregular rainfall has led to increased disease and reduced crop quality, while heavy rains have affected the fertility of agricultural land. This has deepened the crisis in agriculture. The burden of economic losses is increasing. Farmers are also facing the crisis of crop loans. Restrictions imposed on millions of farmers' accounts due to overdue loans have made obtaining new loans difficult. This has forced farmers to turn to moneylenders, significantly increasing their financial stress. Some farmers are even resorting to suicide during Diwali. Recently, there have been reports of three farmers committing suicide in the district.The government has announced a relief amount of ₹8.5,000 per hectare. The relief amount is distributed according to the percentage of damage. However, according to farmers, this amount is insufficient even to cover the cost of tillage. Compared to the cost and damage, this relief amount is far too low. They expect assistance from the administration, but are unhappy with the lack of adequate support. The natural disaster has left farmers stressed and unstable. They expect help from the government. The lack of government assistance and the restrictive credit system have fueled a sense of dissatisfaction. This has led to a decline in farmers' trust in the government for the upcoming district council elections. The possibility of considering a change in local power is increasing. Dissatisfaction with the system and expectations for greater assistance will be clearly felt in this election. The farmers' crisis is currently at a critical juncture. Experts believe that only if the administration provides immediate and adequate assistance can the situation in rural areas change.read more:- Rupee rises 7 paise, dollar index weakens

State-wise CCI Cotton Sales Details – 2024-25 SeasonThe Cotton Corporation of India (CCI) reduced its prices by a total of ₹200-₹400 per bale this week. Following the price revision, CCI sold approximately 9,800 bales during the week, bringing the total cotton bales sales for the 2024-25 season to approximately 88,99,700 bales. This represents around 88.99% of the total cotton procured so far this season.A state-wise breakdown of sales indicates strong activity from Maharashtra, Telangana, and Gujarat, which together account for over 85.32% of the total sales to date.This data underscores CCI’s proactive efforts in stabilizing the cotton market and ensuring steady supply across key cotton-producing states.
The Centre has launched a ₹600 crore "Cotton Revolution Mission" to promote high-yield, long-staple cotton cultivation.The Centre has launched a ₹600 crore "Cotton Revolution Mission" to promote high-yield, long-staple cotton cultivation through scientific research, technological innovation, and extension services. Farmers in Maharashtra, especially the Akola region, have adopted high-density plantation (HDP) methods, leading to significant yield increases.The plan is to replicate these methods in suitable areas of Telangana by bringing farmers to Maharashtra to observe these methods firsthand, providing them with suitable seeds, and encouraging them to adopt HDP techniques. Union Coal and Mines Minister G. Kishan Reddy said on Friday that a post-harvest visit to Akola is also being planned for farmers to observe successful HDP practices.Regarding the current cotton procurement, Mr. Reddy informed a press conference that approximately 2.4 million farmers in Telangana are currently engaged in cotton cultivation, making the state the top cotton producer in India. From October 21st to 24th, agriculture and marketing officials will conduct a five-day awareness campaign in villages to promote the app and the procurement process.Approximately 122 procurement centers are scheduled to open after Diwali. He explained that committees headed by district collectors, comprising officials, police, revenue officials, and farmer representatives, have been established at each procurement center to address complaints and prevent exploitation.A dedicated mobile application, the "Cotton Farmers App," will also be launched to facilitate slot booking and streamline the selling process for farmers. The Minister urged farmers to use this app, which will go live after Diwali, to book slots to sell their produce, schedule their sales, and avoid middlemen, ensuring fair prices and transparency.Awareness campaigns are being conducted through pamphlets, social media, WhatsApp groups, and videos in nine languages. Newspaper advertisements also provide information on acceptable moisture levels and related prices. He explained that agricultural officials are also visiting villages to assist farmers with app registration and distribute informational materials. Tech-savvy rural youth are also helping fellow farmers use the digital platform to ensure smooth implementation.A total of 345 ginning centers have been notified in Telangana, and agreements have been finalized with the Cotton Corporation of India (CCI). Agricultural officials, Panchayat officials, and progressive farmers are promoting slot booking awareness at the village level.He explained that a review meeting was held with CCI officials from Adilabad, Warangal, and Mahabubnagar and officials from the Telangana Department of Agriculture and Cooperation, and that issues raised during the meeting will be escalated to the Ministry of Textiles and CCI headquarters for resolution.The Center procured 17.3 million bales of cotton worth ₹24,825 crore through the Central Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (CCI) between 2004 and 2014. In contrast, from 2014 to 2024, procurement increased to 47.3 million bales, costing ₹1.37 lakh crore—a testament to the Center's increased support under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he said.Over the past decade, the Center has doubled the Minimum Support Price (MSP) for cotton. In Telangana and Andhra Pradesh alone, the Center has spent ₹65,000 crore on cotton procurement over the past decade—₹58,000 crore in Telangana and ₹8,000 crore in Andhra Pradesh, Mr. Reddy said.The Minister claimed that strict action is being taken against ginning mills and middlemen involved in malpractices. The government is also cracking down on counterfeit seeds, and several companies and dealerships have already been penalized. Violators are being booked under the PD Act and licenses are being revoked, he said.read more :- CCI sold 89% of its cotton through e-auction.

Despite the reduction in acreage, cotton production is expected to range between 312 and 335 lakh bales (each weighing 170 kg).Carry-forward stocks for the 2025-26 season are estimated at 60.59 lakh bales compared to 39.19 lakh bales last year due to higher imports. Despite a reduction in acreage and concerns about production being affected by excessive rainfall in some regions, India's cotton production for the 2025-26 season, starting in October, is expected to range between 312 and 335 lakh bales (each weighing 170 kg).Arrivals of the new crop have picked up in various states this week, with daily arrivals estimated to exceed 1 lakh bales. Raw cotton prices are trading below the minimum support price (MSP) due to weak demand.Due to higher imports, carry-forward stocks for the 2025-26 season are estimated at 60.59 lakh bales, up from 39.19 lakh bales a year ago.Cotton Association of India (CAI) President Atul S. Ganatra said the 2025-26 crop is in good shape and official crop estimates will be announced in the last week of October. All 10 state associations believe the crop is good. A minimum of 312 lakh bales and a maximum of 335 lakh bales are expected at 170 kg per bale, as yields are expected to be higher in Gujarat and Maharashtra. "We have called a meeting in the last week of October to estimate the new crop," he said.Kharif AcreageCotton acreage declined to 110 lakh hectares (LH) this Kharif season from 112.97 lakh hectares last year, as a section of farmers shifted to other crops like maize and oilseeds. Daily arrivals have picked up and crossed the 1 lakh mark this week. Ganatra said, "New crop arrivals are increasing every day. In the last four days, arrivals have been more than 1 lakh bales since Monday. The total arrival on Thursday was 1.17 lakh bales."CAI has maintained its pressure estimate for the recently concluded 2024-25 season at 312.40 lakh bales. Based on feedback from its member associations, CAI estimates total supply to be 392.59 lakh bales by the end of September. This includes a pressing demand of 312.40 lakh bales, imports of 41 lakh bales, and an opening stock of 39.19 lakh bales. Consumption by the end of the 2024-25 cotton season is estimated at 314 lakh bales and exports at 18 lakh bales (28.36 lakh bales in the previous season).End-season stocks are estimated at 60.59 lakh bales, including 31.50 lakh bales held by textile mills and 29.09 lakh bales held by the Cotton Corporation of India (CCI), the Maharashtra Federation, and others (multinational companies, traders, ginners, and exporters), including cotton sold but not delivered.Ramanuj Das Boob, a sourcing agent in Raichur, said the crop size could be around 320 lakh bales. Daily arrivals have picked up, but have failed to boost market sentiment due to sluggish demand. Large buyers have covered their positions for the next few months from CCI's recent sales and have also entered into contracts for duty-free imports.Prices for good quality raw cotton are in the range of ₹6,500-7,300 per quintal, well below the MSP of ₹8,100. CCI has been actively purchasing at MSP in some areas of North India. Procurement is likely to begin in Central and South India after Diwali, which could provide a support to prices. However, trade is primarily driven by the ICE market and yarn demand, he said.read more :-INR Up 05 Paise, Opens at 87.77

Telangana: Cotton farmers in Khammam face low yieldsKhammam : Many cotton farmers in the erstwhile Khammam district are facing serious fears of a significant decline in crop yields this season due to continuous heavy rains and inadequate supply of urea.Large areas of cotton have been damaged by prolonged waterlogging in fields due to repeated heavy rains. Unseasonal rains during flowering have severely affected the quality of their crops, further compounding their woes.According to Agriculture Department data, cotton is now cultivated on 1.72 lakh acres in Bhadradri-Kothagudem district, with an estimated yield of 26.56 lakh quintals. Cotton is grown on 2.25 lakh acres in Khammam district, and officials estimate the yield to be 27.07 lakh quintals.However, when The Hans India contacted officials and farmer organizations, widely conflicting views emerged on this emerging situation. Khammam District Agriculture Officer D. Pullaiah says there will be a slight decline in yields—only one to two quintals per acre in the lower areas—a claim denied by farmers' unions.Bonthu Rambabu, district secretary of the Telangana Rythu Sangham (CPI-M), insisted that yields could decline by 50 to 60 percent per acre. "Compared to the normal yield of 8 to 12 quintals per acre, farmers are now getting only 2 to 4 quintals," he said. He added that in many areas, cotton was washed away just before harvesting began.Continuously erratic rainfall in the district will worsen the situation. The minimum support price (MSP) for high-quality cotton with 8% moisture is ₹8,110 per quintal. However, prices drop significantly when the moisture content exceeds this. The high harvesting cost—₹15 to ₹17 per kg—increases the financial burden on farmers. "A farmer spends ₹5,000 to harvest three quintals of cotton, which is reduced to two quintals after drying. The effective profit is only ₹3,000," Rambabu said. He urged the Cotton Corporation of India to increase the acceptable moisture limit to 20-25% so that affected farmers can get a fair price.Towering rains have destroyed crops, and farmers demand compensation. Cotton farmers in Chandragonda Mandal, Bhadradri-Kothagudem district, are facing huge financial losses due to continuous rains for the past two months. The incessant rains have caused significant damage to the crop just when it was ready for harvest.Farmers in villages like Pokalagudem, Ravikampadu, Tungaram, Repallewada, and Tippanapalli have cultivated cotton on approximately 6,000 acres. However, due to the incessant rain, the cotton grains have turned black before opening, fallen to the ground prematurely, or developed mold after bursting, making them unsuitable for sale.Farmers Ramakrishna and Venkat Rao expressed deep sorrow, saying that the rains ruined their crop at the last minute. "We were just a few days away from harvesting our crop. Now we are looking at blackened cotton lying on the ground," they said.Given the scale of the damage, farmers fear significant losses this year in terms of both yield and quality, which will directly impact their earnings. The excessive moisture has also raised concerns about receiving the MSP, as damaged cotton often does not meet procurement standards.Local farmer groups are urging the state government to immediately intervene and announce relief measures for affected farmers. "The government must act without delay and compensate cotton farmers affected by excessive rain," the farmers demanded.read more :- 50% of cotton in Punjab sold below MSP, CCI delays the reason
Amidst CCI delays and app registration issues, 50% of Punjab's cotton sold below MSPBathinda: It has been 15 days since the official procurement of the cotton crop began in Punjab, but farmers are still waiting for the Cotton Corporation of India (CCI) to begin purchasing at the Minimum Support Price (MSP). This situation is despite the fact that by the evening of October 14th, approximately 90,000 quintals of cotton had arrived at procurement centers in Punjab. Due to the CCI not purchasing, private traders are purchasing, and many of these purchases are being made at prices well below the MSP.So far, 50% of the cotton in the state has been purchased below the MSP. In the current season, cotton prices have reached Rs. 3,000 per quintal (although only a small quantity has achieved such a low price), while the highest price recorded was Rs. 7,720 per quintal. The MSP for medium staple is ₹7,710 per quintal, while for long staple is ₹8,110 per quintal. Cotton with a staple length of 27.5-28.5 mm is typically grown in the state, with an MSP of ₹8,010 per quintal.To ensure transparency, the CCI has introduced an app, the Cotton Farmer App, from the 2025-26 season and made it mandatory for cotton procurement. Many farmers are facing difficulties registering on the Aadhaar-based registration app, which is preventing CCI from making purchases.According to data received from the Punjab State Agricultural Marketing Board (PSAMB), 89,209 quintals of cotton arrived in the mandis as of October 14, of which 88,991 quintals have been procured, and 44,368 quintals were procured below the MSP. Cotton is grown on 1.19 lakh hectares (2.97 lakh acres) in Punjab, of which approximately 30,000 acres have been damaged due to floods. Last year, cotton was cultivated on 99,700 hectares.Farmers are required to upload valid land records certified by revenue or agriculture officials and details of cotton sowing areas. Farmers can self-register on their mobile phones. The CCI informed all Agricultural Produce Market Committees (APMCs) across the state on August 21 about the new digital registration process. Initially, registration was to be completed by September 30, but it was extended to October 31.Karnail Singh, a farmer from the Khuiya Sarwar area of Fazilka, said, "We are facing a lot of difficulty in registering on the Cotton Farmer App because new Girdawari reports of the cotton acreage have to be uploaded. We want the CCI to procure as usual and waive registration this year due to the floods." CCI officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the corporation is ready to procure produce with up to 12% moisture content, but farmers will have to register through the Cotton Farmer App and the records will have to be verified by state government officials.read more :- Global cotton prices ease on decline in October

Rajasthan: Cotton procurement begins at MSP; CCI purchases at Rs. 7,860 per quintal. 8% moisture content is acceptable; registration on the app is mandatory .Hanumangarh. Agricultural Produce Market Committee Secretary Pandit Vishnudutt Sharma begins procurement at the MSP by applying tilak to farmers. Bhaskar Correspondent | Cotton procurement at the MSP began on Tuesday at the Junction Paddy Market in Hanumangarh district. The CCI has formally initiated the procurement by applying tilak to farmer Balveer Singh and miller Mahendra Mittal. The CCI will purchase cotton with moisture content up to 8% at a rate of Rs. 7,860 per quintal. Any moisture content between 8 and 12 percent will be deducted as per regulations. The CCI will not purchase cotton with moisture content above 12 percent. However, only one trolley was purchased on the first day. The moisture content was within CCI guidelines. According to CCI Senior Commercial Officer Kewalkrishna Sharma, the contract process with millers is almost complete. The procurement process will accelerate further in the next day or two. Most importantly, this time, CCI has initiated online registration for cotton procurement at MSP. The "Kisan Kapas" app has been launched for this purpose. Only farmers who register on the app will be able to sell their produce to CCI at MSP.Regional Deputy Director Devi Lal Kalwa, Trade Board President Kulveer Singh, trader Nitin Goyal, Accountant Mangilal Sharma, and supervisor Asaram were present at the procurement launch. The central government has set the support price for medium-staple cotton at ₹7,710 per quintal for 2025-26, and the MSP for long-staple cotton at ₹8,110 per quintal. In Hanumangarh district, cotton fiber is longer than medium-staple cotton and shorter than long-staple cotton. Therefore, CCI has set the price at ₹7,810. Last year, the price of medium-staple cotton was fixed at ₹7,121 per quintal and that of long-staple cotton at ₹7,521 per quintal. Due to low production last year, procurement at the support price was not possible. Traders purchased the produce through open auction. Last season, the average market price was ₹6,500 to ₹7,000 per quintal. This time, market prices are significantly lower than the support price, ranging from ₹6,800 to ₹7,300 per quintal.Due to the market price being approximately ₹1,000 per quintal lower than the MSP, farmers were suffering significant financial losses. Consequently, farmer organizations demanded an early resumption of procurement. Cotton procurement at MSP has begun, and farmers are being encouraged to register. For the first time, the CCI has initiated an online registration process for farmers selling cotton at MSP. To achieve this, the Cotton Corporation of India Limited (CCI) has launched the "Kapas Kisan" mobile app. Farmers can install the app from the Google Play Store. Farmers can self-register through the app, based on their Aadhaar. The registration process began on September 1st. The deadline is October 31st, which is likely to be extended to December 31st. According to CCI officials, CCI has launched the app for registration for farmers' convenience.Registration can be done by uploading valid land records, including details of the cotton sown area, duly certified by the relevant revenue authority/agriculture department/agricultural extension authority. After self-registration, the farmers' data uploaded to the mobile app must be approved by the relevant state government authority through the mobile app. For this purpose, a separate login ID will be provided to the state authority. To avoid overcrowding at procurement centers, CCI will launch a slot booking facility for registered farmers through the "Cotton Farmer" mobile app. Farmers can book slots on a 7-day rolling basis.Farmers will be able to select a date as per their convenience, depending on the availability of slots. ^Government procurement of cotton at the support price has begun at the Hanumangarh Junction Paddy Market. Registration is ongoing on the Kisan Kapas App. CCI will purchase from the farmer only after registration. Farmers are being made more aware of the need for registration.
