Kushtia farmers, including the whole country, are losing their interest in jute cultivation due to low prices. As a result, golden days of Bengal's traditional golden fiber cultivation are being lost every day.
Abdul
Jalil, a jute cultivator of Dhubail village in Mirpur upazila of
Kushtia, said, "I have planted jute in three bighas of land. Every 7 thousand taka has been spent on marketing, including marketing. But now it is a matter of thinking that if the jute yield and the price will come home, the real money will come home. Workers' wages increased to 450 to 500 rupees.
Farmer Nandu Mollah of Bheramara said, "I will not be able to cultivate jute in the next year. Because it has to work very hard. The price is much lower than that. '
He said, if the price of jute is at least 1800 to 2000 thousand rupees, then the farmers will be benefitted.
Officially, there are three great options for jute prices. 1630-1680-1730 farmers will have to buy jute from the farmers. But small businessmen do not believe it. They are buying jute from the peasantry at Tk 1250-1300. Many people complained to him because jute prices were low.
According
to the information given by Kushtia District Jute Department, now 6
thousand 446 acres of Kushtia Sadar upazila, 21 thousand 736 acres in
Mirpur, 10,868 acres in Bheramara, 13 thousand 338 acres in Kumarakhali,
9386 acres in Khoksa and 41.990 acres of land in Daulatpur upazila. has been done.
