Imphal, August 02 2021:
Maharaj Mangyamba Multipurpose Livestock cum Agriculture and Social Forestry Cooperative Society Limited has urged the government to ensure adequate availability of fertilisers to the farmers.
A statement of the Society said that scarcity of fertiliser has increased the hardships of the farmers, who are already facing the heat of Covid-19 pandemic.
Amid the pandemic and related curfew, farmers are facing severe hardships in getting their share of urea and their precious times are wasted.
Unless the government ensures adequate and timely availability of urea to the farmers, the state can never achieve the target of self-reliance in food, the statement said while drawing attention of the agriculture minister in this regard.
