HASSAN: The Hasan Deputy Commissioner Mr Naveen Raj Singh has directed the Agriculture and Cooperative Departments to ensure that there is no shortage of fertilizers and seeds for the kharif season.

Addressing Agriculture and Cooperative department officials here on Tuesday, he asked them to procure and supply the right quantity of fertilizers and seeds to farmers.

Mr Naveen Kumar said he did not want the district to witness the chaos it experienced last year on account of such shortages. Zilla Panchayat chief executive office Mr S Shankaranarayana said that this year there was no shortage of fertilizers and seeds.

As many as 31,000 tonnes of potato seeds have already been kept in cold storage here, he said, adding fifty per cent of the fertilizers would be distributed through cooperative societies and remaining through licensed dealers. - PTI
