Even while postponing a decision on wheat and rapeseed-mustard for next week, the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) approved the minimum support prices (MSP) for all other crops being planted in the 2006-07 rabi season.

The MSP for chana (chickpea or Bengal gram) has been set at Rs 1,445 per quintal, up from Rs 1,435 per quintal for 2005-06.

The same has gone up from Rs 1,535 to Rs 1,545 per quintal for masur (lentil) and Rs 550 to Rs 565 per quintal for barley, while remaining unchanged at Rs 1,565 per quintal for safflower.
