Nagpur News: While the guaranteed price of cotton is Rs 7020, it is being bought at a lower price due to lack of quality. Meanwhile, the government has warned of action against those buying below the guaranteed price and there have been clashes between farmers and cotton growers in several districts of Vidarbha. Due to this, a farmer in Wardha district set fire to the cotton kept in his vehicle. In Rajura (Chandrapur) and Deoli (Wardha) committees too, two groups were at loggerheads over cotton purchase.
In the last season, the situation was persistent, followed by post-monsoon rains. Bollworm also reduced the quality of cotton. Therefore, at present the price of such cotton is available in the market between Rs 6000 to Rs 6800. There is dissatisfaction among farmers due to purchasing at prices lower than the guaranteed price.
Due to this, conflicts are being seen between farmers and traders in many shopping centers and market committees of Vidarbha. The farmer from Rotha (Wardha) loaded cotton in his small vehicle and went to the CCI center at Umri. This time his cotton was rejected saying that there was no record on seven-twelve. Angered by this, some farmers set fire to the cotton kept in the vehicle, which created a stir.
In this, the state government has warned of action against those who do not buy cotton with guarantee in the background of growing dissatisfaction. Describing this decision as unfair, the traders of Deoli (Wardha) market committee stopped shopping for two days. The question of traders is that when there is no copy of cotton then how will they buy cotton with guarantee.
