ARTICLE 4 #MaizeProcurement

In a major relief to maize (corn) farmers across Telangana, the state government has announced an increase in maize procurement for the current season. The move comes as a response to falling market prices and growing concerns among farmers about unsold produce.

Karnataka Chief Minister has announced that a meeting will soon be held with distillery operators across the state to direct them to begin immediate procurement of maize for ethanol production.
