ABOUT SCHEME
West Bengal WB Kharif Paddy Procurement Scheme 2023: Rice Mill Registration Online Application Form PDF Download – 

The procurement would be a mix of rabi (boro) and Kharif (amon) at a minimum support price (MSP) of Rs 1,855 per quintal since the procurement process of paddy harvested during the Kharif season had to be stopped due to the lockdown.

The main objective which will be fulfilled through this scheme will be the support to the farmers of the West Bengal state. Last year, the maximum procurement went up to 90 quintals for every farmer at an MSP of Rs 1,868 per quintal.

Under the scheme, the government aims to enrol over 30 lakh farmers, state food and civil supplies minister Jyotipriya Mallick said.

A super harvest this season and low demand have hit paddy prices, which have fallen below the government-announced minimum support price (MSP), a senior official of the agriculture department said.
