Imphal, May 19 2021:
Manipur Legislative Assembly deputy speaker and Mayang Imphal MLA Kongkham Mobindro's father K Manglemsana made urea available to the farmers of the constituency at cheaper rate to help the farmers start plantation of early variety of paddy crop (Angan Phou).
Briefly speaking on the occasion, Manglemsana noted that there are many farmers who are practicing early paddy cropping in the constituency.
Under the joint efforts of his son Mobindro and him, the urea is made available at much cheaper rate to the farmers.
This will surely increase the crop yield and enhance the economy of the farmers, he added.
Appreciating the initiative of availing urea at cheaper rate, a farmer pointed out that the farmers practicing early paddy cropping had been facing inconvenience due to unavailability of urea.
Imposition of curfew for containing Covid-19 pandemic added more burden to farmers in procuring the urea.
But the problem of unavailability of urea has been solved as father-son duo ensured availability of the much needed urea, the farmer said.
