Farmers have been told to bring along registration slips mandatorily at the time of selling of their agriculture produces under the scheme. Task force of agriculture experts, mandi officers and I.T. experts has been formed in the mandi board which is reviewing the data of rates of each mandi being uploaded under the Bhavantar Bhugtan Yojana very intensively and minutely. Data monitoring officers have also been appointed for this activity. After the auction, sale certificate of the agriculture produce is being provided to the registered farmers under the scheme.

Arrival of various crops and mandi rates are being considered daily in the state since August One 2017. Analysis of average model rates of 8 crops of the state and other states’ rates are also being carried out by the experts. Leaving apart sesame rates, the rates of remaining other 7 crops are less than the minimum support price in other states in comparison to rates of the state. During the last one month in the state and other states, rate of soybean between Rs. 300 to 500 per quintal, urad between 2000 to 3000 per quintal, tuar 2000 to 2200 per quintal, moong between 1000 to 1500, maize between 200 to 300 per quintal and ground nut between Rs. 700 to 1000 per quintal less than the minimum support price are prevailing in the mandis. Under the Bhavantar Bhugtan Yojana, after the selling period in the mandis, the model average selling rate will be calculated with model average rate of the state beside 2 other states. Under the scheme, if the crop is sold by the farmers on rate between the minimum support price and prescribed model selling rate then the difference of minimum support price and selling rate of the farmer will be deposited in the bank account of the farmer. If selling rate of farmers’ crop becomes less than the model selling rate then the difference between the minimum support price and average model rate will be deposited in the bank accounts of the farmers under the scheme. Bhavantar Bhugtan Yojana has been implemented in the mandis on better quality (F.A.Q.) and non-better quality of 8 agriculture produces.

Constant monitoring is being made from October 16 to 23 under the scheme. Bhavantar Bhugtan Yojana has been implemented in Madhya Pradesh first in the country. This scheme will prove to be a protective shield for the farmers to ensure reasonable rates of pulses and oilseeds crops.-Windowtonews
