Govt yet to act on small cold stores, farmers suffer in Subarnapur district Post News Network
Sonepur: About 80 per cent of people in Subarnapur district solely depend on agriculture.
Besides paddy, farmers also raise vegetables, potatoes, onions and other cash crops to supplement their income, but for lack of cold stores for vegetables, they have to go for distress sale most of the time, a report said.
The government has plans for setting up small cold stores to help farmers to preserve their agricultural produce, but no concrete step is being taken in this regard, it was alleged.
During harvesting time, farmers have no preservation facilities to store their vegetables. As a result, traders cash in on the situation and buy their produce at throwaway prices, while prices of vegetable are soaring in towns and cities.
A group of women from here have started the ‘Oxygen on Wheels’ initiative to reach out to Covid-19 patients at home with oxygen concentrators. All 10 members, including drivers, procurers and operators, are women.
Churki Hansda, a 30-year-old tribal woman, is the group s driver. On Sunday, she drove a vehicle loaded with oxygen concentrators several times, also in the dead of the night at a moment s notice.
Others, like school teachers Manisha Banerjee and Barnali Basu, and homemakers like Kalyani Dutta, provide instructions over the phone to patients. They were trained in using these concentrators only weeks ago.
The Liver Foundation in Calcutta and Covid Care Network, who have been extending relief initiatives beyond Calcutta to 16 districts, sent four oxygen concentrators to the team in Santiniketan.
