Some farmers told that earlier five laborers were employed in one bigha. Due to waterlogged fields, the same work is being done by 7-8 laborers. Nor are we getting the right price for soybean. The government is not increasing the price of soybean by Rs. 6 thousand. Neither the Patwari, agriculture officer and public representatives are visiting the fields to see the crops, nor are they listening to the problems of the farmers.

Fatehlal, a farmer of Khacharoda, said that the crops have been damaged due to rain. In many villages soybean production was not even as per the seeds.
