Haryana Chief Minister has pledged that every grain of paddy arriving at grain markets will be purchased by the state. The move aims to support farmers and stabilize prices.
The Haryana government announced that it will procure every grain of paddy that reaches grain markets. The decision, made by the Chief Minister, is intended to provide a guaranteed market for farmers and to curb price volatility. The procurement will be carried out through existing state agencies that handle grain sales. Farmers can expect a stable price floor, while the state aims to reduce the surplus that often leads to market gluts. The policy is part of Haryana’s broader effort to strengthen the agricultural sector and improve rural incomes.
