K'taka: Sugar cane growers stage protest for FRP outside DC office

Mysuru, Nov 2 (UNI) Maintaining that the FRP (Fair and Remunerative Price) announced by the Government was ''unscientific'' as it does not correspond with the current production costs, sugar cane growing farmers, under the banner of Karnataka Sugarcane Growers Association, staged a demonstration in front of the Deputy Commissioner’s Office here, demanding higher FRP.
Alleging that sugar factories were cheating farmers in respect of weighing and sugar yield after the State Government announced SAP (State Advisory Price) over three years ago, the farmers wanted the Government to hike the FRP and also to revise the SAP in keeping with rising inputs and labour costs.
Accusing the Sugar Minister of failing to keep his promise of revising the SAP, the protestors maintained that "they are being rendered injustice due to the inordinate delay in the announcement of a new FRP and SAP".
