Many times we show cleverness by thinking that we will get its benefits in the coming days, but alas, when this does not happen, how much trouble it is, only the farmers of Maharashtra can tell at the moment. That s because the farmers of Maharashtra had shown some similar cleverness a few days ago, but if they don t regret it, what else to say that their cleverness did not work, on the contrary, they got caught in their own woven web.
Now the farmer brothers are getting worried about how to get out of this trap, but alas, they are not seeing any option to get out of this trap. At the same time, if we talk about the stand of the government, it too seems neutral on the plight of the farmer. Now in such a situation what is the next step of our farmer brothers. It is hidden in the womb of the future, but before that, let us know in this report that after all, what happened to the farmers that they got caught in their own trap.
Thought that onion prices would increase, but...
In fact, the farmers of Maharashtra had stocked onions thinking that when their prices would increase, then they would be taken out in the market and earn a lot of profit, but alas this did not happen.
The arrow of our farmer brothers did not hit the target. That is because there has been a huge increase in the prices of onions, due to which the water done by the farmer brothers has been washed away. Where they were thinking that they would make huge profits. There they have suffered heavy losses. Now in such a situation, if the farmer brother does, then what should he do? They don t understand anything.
Didn t even trust the government
If the farmer brothers who have done their loss in the affair to show their cleverness, now if they have hopes from anyone, then it is the government, but now the hopes placed on the government also seem to be collapsing. Farmers of Maharashtra say that when the prices rise, the government compensates the farmers. At the same time, when their prices have come down, keeping this in mind, the government takes some steps in the interest of the farmers. This will be something to be seen.
Read the plight of farmers
At the same time, Bharat Dighole, the founding president of Maharashtra Kanda Grower s Association, said that the onions which had earlier reached Rs 2200 to 2400 per quintal. Now the same onions have reached Rs 2400 to 2600 per quintal. Apart from this, other substances including manure, fertilizers, pesticides used in it have become expensive.
Why onion prices have come down
Along with this, Dighole, who closely monitors the onion market, said that the export of onions has come down for the last few days, due to which the farmer brothers have suffered huge losses. Our onions are mainly exported to Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Singapore, but Pakistan is exporting onions to these countries at cheaper prices for the past few days. Whose direct loss is being done to our farmer brothers.
Since usually when onions are exported to other countries, their prices keep rising, which directly benefits our farmer brothers. Now in such a situation, what steps does the government take in the interest of the farmers.
