According to the association, the prices of wanda, straw, green fodder, medicines, labor, gas, and electricity have become expensive. Rate of milk should be decided according to the cost of production. We will raise our voice on every platform for farmers. We have supported our farmers in every difficult time. The Farmers Association has demanded that a meeting of the Price Review Committee be convened.
Price of Milk in Peshawar
Association President Asif Awan says that the Deputy Commissioner’s Office has always given appropriate rates on the recommendation of the Livestock Farmers Welfare Association. We will also present the farmers’ case of the rate of milk before the administration in the current situation. An increase in the price of milk in Peshawar is inevitable due to inflation.
