Inspection of grain procurement process conducted in Khammam

K Surendra Mohan, the district special officer for Bhadradri Kothagudem, visited the grain purchase centre in Sujatha Nagar on Tuesday. The moisture content of the grain was found to be 20% during the inspection. Farmers were advised to dry the grain to 17% moisture content before bringing it to the purchase centre.

It was suggested that managers of the grain buying centre cover grain heaps with tarpaulins to prevent them from getting wet due to unexpected rains. This step would ensure that the grain is transported to the appropriate mills on time. Later, Mohan visited the Shri Durga Parboiled Rice Mill in Sujatha Nagar. He instructed the mill to procure the grain correctly and deliver it to CMR as per schedule.
