Government unable to cater the data of sowing of cotton
Even after the start of sowing season of one of the major kharif crops cotton, the government has still not provided the facts of cotton sown in terms of area covered. Cotton being a major commodity for traders, millers, spinners, ginners and many others, its information is crucial to every sector. The unavailability of the amount of crop sown can affect severely every entity associated with it.
However, if we take a look at the last year’s data, by the start of June the cotton crop had already been sown in 13.55 lakh hectare area. On this basis, industry owners and others can speculate the quantity of plantation but it’s quite risky to make sensitive moves without being available with crisp data.
