Imphal, July 21 2021:
Manipur Loumee Lup (MLL) has urged the government to provide fertilisers, urea in particular, in ample quantity to farmers.
In a release, MLL stated that state farmers are already in dire situation due to lack of rainfall this year making it harder for sowing crops.
Subsequent to rainfall in the last few days farmers are in a rush to sow their crops and are also running from pillar to post to buy urea for applying in their fields.
But urea is in short supply and sold at high prices causing headache to farmers, it said.
In view of this, MLL appealed to the government to take up measures for ensuring widespread availability of urea in the state.
