Cotton Market Update Supply of indigenously improved, indigenous hybrids in Khandesh is constrained every year. Due to this, the farmers have to go around Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat for this seed.

A company supplies its indigenous cotton seeds to Khandesh. But this supply ends at the end of June. Also, in Jalgaon district, at least one to one and a half lakh packets of this seed are needed, but only 25 to 30 thousand packets come in two phases.
In that too these packets are first given to the preferred group. By then the right time for cotton cultivation is over. Due to this, the farmers of Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat are going to their familiar agricultural center managers, cotton growers, relatives to buy the seeds of this company by paying a fixed price and taking a receipt.
