Commission of Agriculture Costs and Price (CACP) under Ministry of Agriculture and Farmer\u2019s Welfare is mandated to recommend the Minimum Support Prices (MSPs) for 22 agricultural commodities including foodgrains at all India Level and Fair & Remunerative Price for Sugarcane.<\/p>\n

Steps taken by the Government to ensure remunerative prices for foodgrains and its timely procurement from farmers are as under:<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0The Minimum Support Price (MSP) is announced by the Government of India at the beginning of the sowing season for crops and procures foodgrains at MSP.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0MSP operations are given wide publicity through pamphlets, banners, sign boards, radio, TV and advertisements through print & electronic media.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0Farmers are made aware of the quality specifications and purchase system etc. to facilitate the farmers to bring their produce conforming to the specifications.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0Procurement centres are opened taking into account the production, marketable surplus, convenience of farmers and availability of other logistics \/ infrastructure such as storage and transportation etc. Large number of temporary purchase centres in addition to the existing regulated mandis and depots\/godowns are also established at key points for the convenience of the farmers for timely purchase of their produces.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0Farmers directly get the MSP announced by GOI and decided to do away with the levy system of procurement of rice with effect from KMS 2015-16, allowing the entire procurement of paddy to be done only by the State Agencies\/FCI.<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0Payment to farmers is done through electronic mode by State Agencies\/FCI. Efforts are being made to make the payments to the farmers within 48 hours of purchase.<\/p>\n

7.\u00a0 FCI and State Governments have developed their own Online Procurement Systems which ushers in transparency and convenience to the farmers through proper registration and monitoring of actual procurement.<\/p>\n

8.\u00a0Through e-procuring module deployed by procuring Agencies, farmers get latest\/updated information regarding MSP declared, nearest purchase centre, date on which the farmer has to bring their produce to the purchase centre etc. This not only reduces the waiting period for delivery of stock by the farmers but also enables the farmer to deliver stock as per his convenience to the nearest mandi.<\/p>\n
