Amaravati: Reiterating his government's commitment to farmers' welfare, Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy said that e-Marketing and Janata Bazaars would help farmers in getting remunerative price.
"We have been seeing that prices fall whenever farmers want to sell their produce and steeply increase after they sell their products. This trend should change and e-Marketing and Janata Bazaars are intended to provide them a fair deal," the Chief Minister said during a review meeting here on Wednesday.
He enquired about the work in progress on Janata Bazaars and the functioning of Rythu Bharosa Kendras (RBKs). Government should buy at least 30 per cent of local produce and market it through Janata Bazaars. Poultry and aqua products will also be purchased, he said.
RBKs should have grading, cold-storage and marketing facilities by June.
obacco was being purchased under the supervision of government and prices were paid as per grading, he added.
Agriculture Minister K Kannababu, Special Chief Secretary (Agriculture) Poonam Malakondaiah, Agriculture Commissioner Pradyumna and other officials attended the meeting.
