DAP shortage in Etawah | Shortage of DAP in Etawah: SP leader raised questions, farmers are buying in black, factories making fake fertilizers were set up – Etawah News

,

The problem of farmers is such that long queues are formed at cooperative purchasing centers to get urea and DAP fertilizers, in which along with the farmers, their women also participate. The supply of fertilizers at these centers is less, while the needs of the farmers are very high. Despite this, the administration is repeatedly saying that there is no shortage of DAP fertilizer in the district. But the reality is completely different from this.

Samajwadi Party leader raised the question On this issue, senior Samajwadi Party leader Udaybhan Singh has alleged that the administration is trying to deny the shortage of fertilizers. He said, “Farmers have to run from door to door in cooperative societies, farmer service centers and mandis for fertilizers. This has become a huge problem and the administration is not taking any concrete steps on it.”

No action is being taken against hoarders Udaybhan Singh also said that in view of the shortage of fertilizer in the district, many hoarders have stocked huge quantities of DAP and are selling it at expensive prices. In such a situation, farmers are forced to buy fertilizers at expensive prices. His question was why is the administration not taking action against these hoarders?

fake fertilizer business Another aspect of this crisis has come to light in Etawah district, in which some mafias are also manufacturing fake DAP fertilizer. The administration has raided some places and busted these fake fertilizer manufacturing factories. Selling these fertilizers in the market can prove to be even more dangerous for the farmers, because it can harm both the soil and crops of their fields.

Officials’ response It is being repeatedly claimed by the district administration that the allocation of DAP fertilizer is being done daily, and no one needs to worry. But if we go to the spot and see, the reality is something different. This claim of the officials seems empty amidst the increasing problems of the farmers, and the dissatisfaction among the farmers is increasing.
