HYDERABAD, OCT. 4. The Centre will announce the Minimum Support Price (MSP) for 25 agriculture crops for rabi season in two weeks, ahead of the farm produce arriving in the markets. Departing from the usual practice of announcing the MSP for the crops once the produce arrives in the market, the Centre has decided to announce the price beforehand to benefit the ryots, the Union Agriculture Secretary, Radha Singh, told reporters here on Monday. Ms. Singh said the target for foodgrains this year was likely to touch the 230 million tonnes mark against the 212 million tonnes achieved last year because of the good kharif and rabi seasons. She was here to address a zonal conference for the rabi campaign (2004-2005) for officials of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Kerala. She also inaugurated a training programme on Media skills for LPT district teams under the Mass Media Support for Agriculture Extension organised by the National Institute of Agricultural Extension Management (MANAGE).
