Damaged paddy due to untimely rain affecting farmers ahead of purchase

Sources said paddy cultivation in the district was initially affected by inadequate rains compelling most farmers to leave their land barren. However, just as it started picking up pace, unseasonal rains shattered farmers' hopes of reaping a bounty harvest.

Now owing to the unseasonal downpour, most paddy stock have been left discoloured putting farmers in a tight spot. Apprehending that they might incur heavy losses if their stocks aren't sold, farmers have appealed the government to relax the fair average quality (FAQ) norms fixed for sale of the produce.
