Hathras Mandi Halts Farm Produce Entry On October 10-11 Amid Paddy Rush

The Hathras Agricultural Produce Market Committee has stopped the entry of agricultural produce into the market on October 10 and 11 because of the heavy arrival of paddy. The market premises have become completely full, and loading goods into trucks is not taking place properly due to the shortage of space.

The market administration has taken this decision to maintain the arrangement and ensure that operations can continue smoothly. The restriction will apply to paddy as well as all other types of agricultural produce brought by farmers for sale at the market.

Anil Kumar, Secretary of the Agricultural Produce Market Committee, Hathras, said that the market premises were completely filled because of the heavy arrival of paddy on October 9. He said the lack of space had affected the loading of goods into trucks.

According to Anil Kumar, in view of the situation, the entry of agricultural produce brought by farmers for sale will remain closed at the market on October 10 and 11. The decision has been taken because the market area is full and the movement and loading of goods have been affected.

He said the market’s operations would resume as before from 1 a.m. on the night of October 12.

The market administration has appealed to all farmers and traders in the district not to bring their agricultural produce to the market for sale during the specified period. The administration said this would help farmers and traders avoid unnecessary inconvenience.

The restriction is limited to the specified period of October 10 and 11. After the market resumes operations from 1 a.m. on the night of October 12, the market will function as before, as stated by the Secretary of the Agricultural Produce Market Committee, Hathras.
