Officials said the untimely rainfall has affected standing crops in key agricultural regions, raising concerns over yield losses. The government has directed state authorities to conduct field assessments and submit detailed reports on the extent of damage.
To safeguard farmers’ interests, the Centre reiterated that procurement at MSP will continue, ensuring that affected farmers receive fair prices for their produce. Additional relief measures, including compensation and assistance under existing schemes, are also being considered.
The government emphasised its commitment to supporting farmers during this period, stating that timely intervention will help minimise losses and stabilise the agricultural sector.
