Goverment Scheme

His remarks came while launching a tur dal procurement portal through which farmers can register and sell their produce to the National Agricultural Cooperative Marketing Federation of India Ltd (Nafed) and the National Cooperative Consumers' Federation of India (NCCF) at a minimum support price or market price. Nafed and NCCF are two central nodal agencies that undertake pulses procurement on behalf of the government for maintaining a buffer stock under the Price Stabilisation Fund (PSF). They also buy pulses under the Price Support Scheme when the rates fall below the MSP.


      The government is committed to making India self-reliant in pulses by December 2027, Cooperation Minister Amit Shah said on Thursday, asserting that the country will not import a single kilogram of pulses from January 2028.
