Farmers are getting higher price of paddy

Farmer Mahendra Singh has to say on this matter. Although their paddy may be selling more expensive than last year, they are getting less prices. Because the price of paddy is half the price of rice. Even today rice is being sold in the market at 9600 per quintal. Because of which the price of their crop should be Rs 4800 per quintal, which is only Rs 3700 per quintal.
