Punjab's storage facilities are facing a crisis due to excess old paddy stock. The state is bracing for new procurement, which is expected to worsen the situation.
The storage facilities in Punjab are currently overwhelmed with old paddy stock. With new procurement season approaching, the state is likely to face a severe storage crisis. The existing stock is taking up a significant amount of space, leaving little room for the new stock. This has raised concerns about the state's ability to manage the upcoming procurement season. The situation is being closely monitored by the authorities, who are working to find a solution to the storage problem.
