<br />
<em>BIJNOR: </em>Despite the government's announcement that old currency notes can be used to buy seeds, the sowing of wheat has fallen significantly in West UP districts because the seed department has stopped giving them to farmers. According to agriculture department officials, seed centres have stopped selling them since November 24 although it is the peak of the wheat sowing season for the Rabi crop. The reason, officials said, is that banks refused to accept fund transfers in old currency notes.<br />
<br />
Earlier, cash was deposited at the bank and transferred directly to the state government's accounts. This year, banks have asked seed centres to deposit the money in their own accounts and then transfer them electronically to the state government. However, such accounts do not exist and opening them would require meandering through a maze of paperwork.<br />
<br />
&quot;This is the best time for sowing. Wheat is usually cultivated over 1.20 lakh hectares in the district, but so far only 22,000 hectares have been sown and the numbers are just not picking up. It seems the total area on which wheat will be grown this season will be far lower than usual,&quot; an agriculture department official said.<br />

<em>BIJNOR: </em>Despite the government's announcement that old currency notes can be used to buy seeds, the sowing of wheat has fallen significantly in West UP districts because the seed department has stopped giving them to farmers. According to agriculture department officials, seed centres have stopped selling them since November 24 although it is the peak of the wheat sowing season for the Rabi crop. The reason, officials said, is that banks refused to accept fund transfers in old currency notes.<br />
<br />
Earlier, cash was deposited at the bank and transferred directly to the state government's accounts.

However, such accounts do not exist and opening them would require meandering through a maze of paperwork.<br />

&quot;This is the best time for sowing. Wheat is usually cultivated over 1.20 lakh hectares in the district, but so far only 22,000 hectares have been sown and the numbers are just not picking up.

<br />
<em>BIJNOR: </em>Despite the government's announcement that old currency notes can be used to buy seeds, the sowing of wheat has fallen significantly in West UP districts because the seed department has stopped giving them to farmers. According to agriculture department officials, seed centres have stopped selling them since November 24 although it is the peak of the wheat sowing season for the Rabi crop. The reason, officials said, is that banks refused to accept fund transfers in old currency notes.<br />
<br />
Earlier, cash was deposited at the bank and transferred directly to the state government's accounts. This year, banks have asked seed centres to deposit the money in their own accounts and then transfer them electronically to the state government. However, such accounts do not exist and opening them would require meandering through a maze of paperwork.<br />

Agri dept stops selling wheat seed to farmers, sowing falls by 82% -Harveer Dabas
-The Times of India
BIJNOR: Despite the government's announcement that old currency notes can be used to buy seeds, the sowing of wheat has fallen significantly in West UP districts because the seed department has stopped giving them to farmers. According to agriculture department officials, seed centres have stopped selling them since November 24 although it is the peak of the wheat sowing season for the Rabi crop. The reason, officials said, is that banks refused to accept fund transfers in old currency notes.
Earlier, cash was deposited at the bank and transferred directly to the state government's accounts. This year, banks have asked seed centres to deposit the money in their own accounts and then transfer them electronically to the state government. However, such accounts do not exist and opening them would require meandering through a maze of paperwork.
"This is the best time for sowing. Wheat is usually cultivated over 1.20 lakh hectares in the district, but so far only 22,000 hectares have been sown and the numbers are just not picking up. It seems the total area on which wheat will be grown this season will be far lower than usual," an agriculture department official said.
