Haor's rice harvest is almost done. Now the peasants are cutting the rice in high lands.
This has resulted in a lot of rice, which has not been flooded in the flood waters like in the last few years. But in the beginning, the festivity among the peasants was grabbed by the current market price of rice. Farmers are worried about the price of rice available in the market. Government food department has not started buying rice yet. So the farmers are not getting the fair price of rice. Rice traders have to be satisfied with the price they are giving them. Before rice, they are not benefiting from the government's move to buy rice. And they are frustrating because the targets of government's rice procurement are 'very low'.
Titu Mia, a farmer from Alongjuri village of Kishoreganj, said the government did not start buying rice.
Traders are buying paddy. Currently rice is sold at Tk 550 to Tk 650. The way the syndicate is being taken at low prices is rice. Golam Sarwar, farmer of Shani Haor of Tahirpur, Sunamganj said that farmers of haor farmers are not getting the price of rice despite hard work. Rice is being sold at only 500 to 700 taka.
Chamarghat of Kerimganj upazila of Kishoreganj is a large market of wholesale rice. It was known in the fact that the new Boro Hybrid was being sold at Tk 550 per tonne, Bri 29 rice and 630 rupees and BRi-28 rice at Tk 650 per tonne. Farmer Mofiz Uddin of Suetarpara village who came to buy rice said, "My single paddy cost was less than 800 rupees for rice production. At present, rice production will not cost production. 'If he can not afford to buy the real money all the year, then how will rice be cultivated?' 'On the Chonganagaon haor in Karimganj, the farmers were forced to sell the rice at low prices due to lack of cash and forced to meet the urgent needs.
Recently, in Kishoreganj's Itner, Errabi Haor, there are hundreds of workers who are cutting rice. Farmer Mohir Uddin is supervising. Occasionally, they are pushing for the workers to handle their hands quickly. Rainfall can occur at any time. Bliss on his eyes, but disappointment in words. Last year, I was doing 500 kathas of land. I do not even have a powdered rice. In this context, I am taking twelve hundred katha land. Ala gave two hands in the hands! So beautiful rice! See if the kylzada is cold. And all the paddy goes back. I'm the fiber of 12 thousand paddy rice. But not because of the market price. If we look at the market in the market, then our Uffak Ahit. 'Said Mohir Uddin.
According to the Kishoreganj Food Control Officer's office, they are not buying rice, but they are buying rice from mill owners at Tk 38 a kg. A source said, about 7 lakh tonnes of rice will be available from Kishoreganj rice. However, the government's target of buying rice in this district is only about 5,000 tonnes. However, in the next Mymensingh district, the target is 53 thousand tonnes. If Kishoreganj had more these targets then the farmers would have benefited a little. District Food Control Office sources said a few days ago, an allocation for rice procurement was Tk 26 per kg. However, it has only four upazilas for 13 upazilas for Itana, Mithamain, Ashtagram and Nikolai upazilas. The rice from these upazilas will be bought only two thousand 200 tons. Farmers say the farmers will not get any benefit in buying this small amount of rice.
Many farmers like Mahir Uddin are busy busy in haore due to sunrangra dawn from night till night. And they also have their labor force. Although their labor value is very high today, there is no indication that the peasants Anwara village in Chongnaagao village was working to thresh the rice. He said, there is no rice in the house, they must be dried and boiled. The workers are eating paddy, they have food. They need their own rice. Not just Anwara, all women in the village are now near the farmer. Anwara said, last time she was about to marry her daughter. But it was not possible last time, now she will get married to the girl. But these days of last year were not such a festivities here. Haorajarate the farmer's tears and wailing The hard-pressed rice and the dreams had swept away all the time, the prematurely.
The farmer Abu Siddique, who was a resident of Etona, was resting with rice. 'Last year, I had planted boro for 80 kathas of land costing 150 lakhs. All the paddy was poured in front of the eyes in the water. There was no one kg of rice in the house. I spent the days sticking to my stomach. And Allah Allah has done this day in hopes. 'He said, if the government only paid a little attention to the price, then he would have been happy.
Farmers say that the rice is more than the concept. Different types of hybrids
