CCI Cotton Procurement: CCI Cotton Procurement Registration Deadline Extended.
Akola: The CCI cotton procurement registration deadline ended on September 30th. In this regard, A. Randhir Savarkar held a meeting with CCI officials to discuss the extension and other issues. A delegation of cotton farmers, along with CCI Deputy General Managers and officials, were present.
The Cotton Corporation of India (CCI) has developed the "Kapas Kisan" app for the procurement of cotton produced in 2025-26. Since the cotton procurement plan will be implemented digitally, there will be no human intervention. The plan will be implemented transparently.
Given the continued heavy rainfall and prolonged monsoon this year, the cotton procurement season is expected to be extended, so the deadline for cotton procurement, which is September 30th, should be extended. MLA Savarkar suggested that the procurement period should also be extended. A/C Savarkar also suggested that the CCI provide guidance and information to cotton growers on how to use the app.
A farmer's Aadhaar card and linked bank account are required to implement the procurement process. Farmers are given the option to choose a procurement center, but the requirement for the farmer to sell cotton to be physically present should be removed. Savarkar suggested submitting a proposal to the government. After entering the information during registration on this app, the account holder receives an OTP.
Furthermore, since the money is being deposited into their account, the requirement for the farmer to be present during the sale does not seem practical, he said. The state government will bring this matter to the attention of the central government and will try to remove it.
CCI officials stated that cotton procurement is planned to begin in the district from Wednesday (15th). Deputy General Manager Brijesh Kasan, Praveen Sadhu of Cotton Corporation of India, Shri Tiwari, farmers Rajesh Bele, Anil Gawande, Dr. Amit Kavre, Shankarrao Wakode, Ambadas Umale, Praveen Hagawane, Chandu Khadse, Rajesh Thackeray, Vivek Bharane, Bharat Kalmegh etc. were present in the meeting.
