&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The commitment, which coincided with an early harvest of wheat due to a heatwave, provided a window to the farmers to grow a third crop before the paddy season began in July.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The commitment, which coincided with an early harvest of wheat due to a heatwave, provided a window to the farmers to grow a third crop before the paddy season began in July.&lt;/p&gt;

Why Punjab farmers who bet big on moong this summer reaped a harvest of discontent -Nikhil Rampal

-ThePrint.in MSP for moong became ceiling price as private traders were unwilling to offer more, claim growers. Another factor was low procurement of produce at MSP by Punjab government. Jagraon/Ludhiana: Encouraged by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government’s promise to procure pulses at Minimum Support Price (MSP), the area under moong cultivation in Punjab nearly doubled this summer as farmers eyed extra income. The commitment, which coincided with an early harvest of wheat due to a heatwave, provided a window to the farmers to grow a third crop before the paddy season began in July. Moong (a green legume), they thought, would bring in additional income apart from what they earn from wheat and paddy. But, growers in Punjab have come to resent the experience, reveals a ground assessment by ThePrint.  While the state government procured just about 11 per cent of the total produce at MSP according to Punjab State Agricultural Marketing Board, another scheme — meant to assure farmers that they would be paid the difference between MSP and lower market prices — ended up muddling the situation further.   Please click here to read more.
