Several farmers opined that traders were increasing the price of turmeric in the market yard. They said that the traders were giving only Rs 6,000 for turmeric worth Rs 9,000 per quintal, and that in 2009 farmers received more than Rs 18,000 per quintal.
They also said that they were cultivating in smaller areas and that their yield had reduced.
