&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Tomato prices across the country have shot through the roof recently. The government has intervened to lower the prices. But for farmers in Andhra Pradesh&amp;rsquo;s Chittoor district, one of India&amp;rsquo;s major tomato-growing areas, the government&amp;rsquo;s action show its bias for urban consumers and its neglect for rural farmers who are bearing the brunt of a changing climate.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The retail prices of tomatoes, which touched Rs 130, skyrocketing in the wake of devastating rains across southern India, including Chittoor.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&amp;ldquo;No one took note of the Rs 100 charged for a 30 kg tomato box in June this year. Now the same is selling for Rs 1,800 per box.

Tomato price rise: Farmers in Andhra say that is only part of the whole story -G Ram Mohan

-Down to Earth All-year demand, the pressures of cultivating tomato off season and changing climate are making life difficult for Chittoor’s farmers Tomato prices across the country have shot through the roof recently. The government has intervened to lower the prices. But for farmers in Andhra Pradesh’s Chittoor district, one of India’s major tomato-growing areas, the government’s action show its bias for urban consumers and its neglect for rural farmers who are bearing the brunt of a changing climate. The retail prices of tomatoes, which touched Rs 130, skyrocketing in the wake of devastating rains across southern India, including Chittoor. They added that while there was a big hue and cry after the prices increased, nobody had bothered about their plight in the past, when there was a glut and produce had to be dumped for want of buyers. “No one took note of the Rs 100 charged for a 30 kg tomato box in June this year. Now the same is selling for Rs 1,800 per box. Losses due to climatic conditions also dent the produce which the politicians don’t factor in while intervening to ease the burden on urban consumers,” G Sreenivasa Kumar, a farmer from Madanapalli mandal (division) in Chittoor district, told this reporter. Madanapalli hosts the biggest tomato market yard in Asia. It supplies its produce to all metropolitan cities in South India. Please click here to read more.
