Record aman paddy production in Singur

Record aman paddy production in Singur

Kolkata, Nov 27 (UNI) Like previous years, this year too the golden soil of Singur
has given farmers a big harvest during the aman paddy season.
Not just paddy, there is now a big hope for potato too.
Last year, there was all-time record production of potato. In many of the plots,
preparations are already on for plating potato. Those who do not harvest potato,
are preparing to harvest paddy again. In fact, the soil of Singur is famous for
being a four-crop soil, a state government official on Tuesday said.
Not just these, but pulses, maize, sesame and mustard are also planted and they
too do very well in the fertile soil of the place.
