The procurement of mustard seed under price support scheme of the central government will continue till May 31. Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar stated that some farmers were left out from the procurement of mustard seed due to reasons including rain and immaturity of the crop. Hafed has already procured 2.28 lakh metric tonne mustard seed from the 1,14,917 farmers covering 4,100 villages of the state. The left out farmers will get benefit from this extension in the procurement. Therefore, in the interest of the farmers the state government has decided to procure mustard seed from all left out farmers who could not sell their mustard crop between March 15 to April 1 due to these reasons.
