&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;NEW DELHI: &lt;/em&gt;The government seems to be facing another onion crisis. If just a month ago it was scarcity and high prices that forced the government to almost stop export, this time abundant production and crashing prices is likely to cause unrest among onion growers ahead of the general election.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
There were reports of farmers halting business in Nashik on Tuesday as the wholesale price touched Rs 9.5 per kg at Asia&#039;s largest onion mandi, Lasalgaon. Though for the past one month farmers&#039; leaders and observers had been maintaining that the huge supply can be addressed only by substantially reducing minimum export price (MEP) for onion or scrap it altogether, the government has now reduced it by about 30%.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
In November, the crisis of onion was so acute, with the vegetable selling at Rs 80 per kg, that the government almost stopped export, increasing the MEP to make overseas selling unviable. But with the wholesale price of onion now touching as low as Rs 9-10 per kg and likely to fall to Rs 5 in next one month, the government has taken a U-turn to promote export. The MEP has been reduced from $1,150 per tonne to $800.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
While farmers have demanded that it should fall further to $300 so that Indian produce finds takers in the international market, experts feel the government and state agencies&#039; failure to manage the crisis has been exposed.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;quot;It&#039;s not something unusual that there is supply shortage between August and November every year. Steps have to be taken to ensure that the fresh kharif onion reaches markets by October. The summer crop is stored to meet the demand during lean months. The government must incentivize creating more storage space for onion. The summer crop (rabi) can be stored for longer duration,&amp;quot; said Hari Prakash Sharma, deputy director (statistics) at the National Horticulture Research and Development Foundation.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
He added that the government can help provide incentives such as good quality seed and bulbs which will increase the certainty of the fresh produce reaching markets in October.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
Meanwhile, there has been a huge reduction in wholesale prices in the past one month at major mandis across the country.
&lt;/p&gt;

He added that the government can help provide incentives such as good quality seed and bulbs which will increase the certainty of the fresh produce reaching markets in October.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
Meanwhile, there has been a huge reduction in wholesale prices in the past one month at major mandis across the country.

If just a month ago it was scarcity and high prices that forced the government to almost stop export, this time abundant production and crashing prices is likely to cause unrest among onion growers ahead of the general election.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;There were reports of farmers halting business in Nashik on Tuesday as the wholesale price touched Rs 9.5 per kg at Asia&#039;s largest onion mandi, Lasalgaon. Though for the past one month farmers&#039; leaders and observers had been maintaining that the huge supply can be addressed only by substantially reducing minimum export price (MEP) for onion or scrap it altogether, the government has now reduced it by about 30%.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;In November, the crisis of onion was so acute, with the vegetable selling at Rs 80 per kg, that the government almost stopped export, increasing the MEP to make overseas selling unviable. But with the wholesale price of onion now touching as low as Rs 9-10 per kg and likely to fall to Rs 5 in next one month, the government has taken a U-turn to promote export. The MEP has been reduced from $1,150 per tonne to $800.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;While farmers have demanded that it should fall further to $300 so that Indian produce finds takers in the international market, experts feel the government and state agencies&#039; failure to manage the crisis has been exposed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;&amp;quot;It&#039;s not something unusual that there is supply shortage between August and November every year. Steps have to be taken to ensure that the fresh kharif onion reaches markets by October. The summer crop is stored to meet the demand during lean months. The government must incentivize creating more storage space for onion. The summer crop (rabi) can be stored for longer duration,&amp;quot; said Hari Prakash Sharma, deputy director (statistics) at the National Horticulture Research and Development Foundation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;He added that the government can help provide incentives such as good quality seed and bulbs which will increase the certainty of the fresh produce reaching markets in October.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;Meanwhile, there has been a huge reduction in wholesale prices in the past one month at major mandis across the country.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;There were reports of farmers halting business in Nashik on Tuesday as the wholesale price touched Rs 9.5 per kg at the Lasalgaon mandi. &lt;/p&gt;&#039;

&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;NEW DELHI: &lt;/em&gt;The government seems to be facing another onion crisis. If just a month ago it was scarcity and high prices that forced the government to almost stop export, this time abundant production and crashing prices is likely to cause unrest among onion growers ahead of the general election.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
There were reports of farmers halting business in Nashik on Tuesday as the wholesale price touched Rs 9.5 per kg at Asia&#039;s largest onion mandi, Lasalgaon. Though for the past one month farmers&#039; leaders and observers had been maintaining that the huge supply can be addressed only by substantially reducing minimum export price (MEP) for onion or scrap it altogether, the government has now reduced it by about 30%.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
In November, the crisis of onion was so acute, with the vegetable selling at Rs 80 per kg, that the government almost stopped export, increasing the MEP to make overseas selling unviable. But with the wholesale price of onion now touching as low as Rs 9-10 per kg and likely to fall to Rs 5 in next one month, the government has taken a U-turn to promote export. The MEP has been reduced from $1,150 per tonne to $800.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
While farmers have demanded that it should fall further to $300 so that Indian produce finds takers in the international market, experts feel the government and state agencies&#039; failure to manage the crisis has been exposed.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;quot;It&#039;s not something unusual that there is supply shortage between August and November every year. Steps have to be taken to ensure that the fresh kharif onion reaches markets by October. The summer crop is stored to meet the demand during lean months. The government must incentivize creating more storage space for onion. The summer crop (rabi) can be stored for longer duration,&amp;quot; said Hari Prakash Sharma, deputy director (statistics) at the National Horticulture Research and Development Foundation.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
He added that the government can help provide incentives such as good quality seed and bulbs which will increase the certainty of the fresh produce reaching markets in October.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
Meanwhile, there has been a huge reduction in wholesale prices in the past one month at major mandis across the country.

Though for the past one month farmers' leaders and observers had been maintaining that the huge supply can be addressed only by substantially reducing minimum export price (MEP) for onion or scrap it altogether, the government has now reduced it by about 30%.

In November, the crisis of onion was so acute, with the vegetable selling at Rs 80 per kg, that the government almost stopped export, increasing the MEP to make overseas selling unviable. But with the wholesale price of onion now touching as low as Rs 9-10 per kg and likely to fall to Rs 5 in next one month, the government has taken a U-turn to promote export. The MEP has been reduced from $1,150 per tonne to $800.

While farmers have demanded that it should fall further to $300 so that Indian produce finds takers in the international market, experts feel the government and state agencies' failure to manage the crisis has been exposed.

&quot;It's not something unusual that there is supply shortage between August and November every year. Steps have to be taken to ensure that the fresh kharif onion reaches markets by October.

The summer crop (rabi) can be stored for longer duration,&quot; said Hari Prakash Sharma, deputy director (statistics) at the National Horticulture Research and Development Foundation.

Now, onion over-supply leads to crisis -Dipak Kumar Dash

-The Times of India NEW DELHI: The government seems to be facing another onion crisis. If just a month ago it was scarcity and high prices that forced the government to almost stop export, this time abundant production and crashing prices is likely to cause unrest among onion growers ahead of the general election. There were reports of farmers halting business in Nashik on Tuesday as the wholesale price touched Rs 9.5 per kg at Asia's largest onion mandi, Lasalgaon. Though for the past one month farmers' leaders and observers had been maintaining that the huge supply can be addressed only by substantially reducing minimum export price (MEP) for onion or scrap it altogether, the government has now reduced it by about 30%. In November, the crisis of onion was so acute, with the vegetable selling at Rs 80 per kg, that the government almost stopped export, increasing the MEP to make overseas selling unviable. But with the wholesale price of onion now touching as low as Rs 9-10 per kg and likely to fall to Rs 5 in next one month, the government has taken a U-turn to promote export. The MEP has been reduced from $1,150 per tonne to $800. While farmers have demanded that it should fall further to $300 so that Indian produce finds takers in the international market, experts feel the government and state agencies' failure to manage the crisis has been exposed.
