Price commission needed to ensure fair price for farmers (Daily Sun)

October 31, 2020


Daily Sun (Bangladesh) published an article on the need for an agricultural commodity price commission to ensure a stable price environment for growers and farmers. Bumper production does not always bring benefits to the growers as bumper production has pushed down wholesale prices at the grower level below the production cost in Bangladesh. Akhter Ahmed, Country Representative for IFPRI-Bangladesh said, “The government should create a balance between farm and retail prices to ensure that the farmers get fair price of their produce and the consumers can also buy agro-commodity at affordable prices.”
