Mysuru: Farmers coming underneath the Union of Farmers Association and State Sugarcane Growers Association staged a protest in entrance of the deputy commissioner’s workplace on Friday, urging the government to open paddy acquire centres at all taluk headquarters and take stringent action against Bannari Sugar Factory owner for now not giving desire to native sugarcane growers.
Speaking to TOI Kurubur Shanthakumar of Sugarcane Growers Association said, “Two months in the past worth of paddy consistent with quintal was once Rs 2,000 however now it has come all the way down to Rs 1,200. The govt will have to come ahead to open acquire centres straight away and supply Rs 2,000 consistent with quintal.”
“Instead of giving desire to native sugarcane farmers, owner of Bannari Sugar Factory is buying sugarcane from other puts, which has hit demand for the native produce. The district management will have to initiate action against the manufacturing unit and strictly instruct the owner to present priority to growers in the area,” he added.
