Monday is the last date for registration.
According to the District Supply Officer, due to the increased paddy price this year compared to the previous Rabi season, 329 more farmers have registered than last year. Since Nabarangpur is a non-irrigated area, farmers have cultivated paddy using water sources such as river banks, lift irrigation, deep borewells, and check dams.
