Potato and Boro farmers in the northern region of the country are fearing a huge loss this season due to adverse weather.
The bone-chilling cold, coupled with fog, imposes the risk of affecting seedlings. Besides, the production costs is skyrocketing for additional measures taken to cope with the weather, they said.
Habib Mohammad Ahasanur Rahman, a farmer of Shingia village in Thakurgaon Sadar upazila, said, Our production cost is skyrocketing as we have to use fungicide. Otherwise, the potato might be affected by blight disease.
