The state will share the findings with the Centre&quot;, said the official.<br /> <br /> There are reports of at least 15 cotton farmers committing suicide in Punjab where whitefly destroyed nearly 2/3rd of the standing cotton crop. The state has nearly 12 lakh acres under cotton this year. Almost all standing crop is Bt cotton, which is resistant to some major pests such as bollworm.<br /> <br /> Whiteflies have regularly attacked cotton plants. It could, however, be controlled by intensive spraying of chemical pesticides over the years. But this year, despite a new pesticide being introduced and subsidized by the state government, the whitefly attack could not be controlled.

After 15 suicides in Punjab, central aid to cotton farmers? |
-The Times of India
NEW DELHI: The Centre will take a call on providing assistance to Punjab cotton farmers, whose crop was damaged due to whitefly pests, after getting report of a central team that visited the state last week to assess the extent of damage. "The team will submit its report in a day or two, making it possible for the agriculture ministry to find out the extent of loss due to the whitefly attack", said an official. Besides, the Centre has also been in the process of testing 1,000 samples of pesticides to check whether the cotton crop was damaged due to use of spurious ones. "As far as suicides of farmers are concerned, the Punjab government has already asked district collectors to investigate the matter and submit their report on cause of deaths by October 16. The state will share the findings with the Centre", said the official. There are reports of at least 15 cotton farmers committing suicide in Punjab where whitefly destroyed nearly 2/3rd of the standing cotton crop. The state has nearly 12 lakh acres under cotton this year. Almost all standing crop is Bt cotton, which is resistant to some major pests such as bollworm. Whiteflies have regularly attacked cotton plants. It could, however, be controlled by intensive spraying of chemical pesticides over the years. But this year, despite a new pesticide being introduced and subsidized by the state government, the whitefly attack could not be controlled. The Malwa region has been the worst affected by the pest. After getting report of a sudden surge in whitefly pest in cotton crops in the state, the agriculture ministry had last month issued an advisory and suggested names of 30 pesticides and five pesticide combinations that can be used to control the pest attack. Remedial measures were also suggested to the state. Later, the state government had also launched a campaign to check if spurious pesticides were sold in the market. |
