More veggies from Telangana on plate: El Nino changes crop choices, farmers receive returns from harvest
Telangana farmers are shifting to vegetable cultivation as El Nino alters climate patterns, boosting their harvest earnings. Agriculture Secretary Surendra Mohan said the state has partnered farmers with aggregators to streamline sales and plans to establish cold‑storage facilities to preserve produce. The initiative aims to increase vegetable availability for consumers and improve farmers' income stability. Officials expect the cold‑storage network to reduce post‑harvest losses and support marketing.
