All dairy farmers need a new pricing formula
Arden Tewksbury
The action taken by Congress two years ago, which ended up taking money from all dairy farmers, must be changed. However, if the problem was rectified, then each dairy farmer in all eleven Federal Milk Marketing Orders should examine how big or how little a piece of that pie that they will receive.
For instance, take Federal Order Number One. If the increase to the Class I differential was 60 cents per cwt., then the affected dairy farmers would see an 18 cent per cwt. increase, and if the correction went to 80 cents per cwt., the dairy farmer would see a 24 cent per cwt. increase.
NEW DELHI: Slamming Modi government for ignoring their warnings, opposition MPs and OBC leaders have demanded that the Centre amend the 102nd constitutional amendment Act to restore the exclusive powers of states to identify backward castes.
The opposition MPs are livid in the wake of the Supreme Court s Wednesday judgment that interpreted the amendment which granted the National Commission for Backward Classes the constitutional status but altered the system of identifying OBCs. We repeatedly warned the government that the wording of the bill will jeopardise the states s power to classify backward castes. It clearly gave primacy to NCBC. But social justice minister Thaawarchand Gehlot said our fears were misplaced. Now, the SC judgment should be appealed against and the 102nd amendment amended again, said BJD MP Bhartruhari Mahtab in the Lok Sabha.
