Central Arecanut and Cocoa Marketing and Processing Cooperative (Campco), is now instilling confidence in farmers growing Chali Arecanut about price increase. This follows after the Cooperative strongly condemned the misleading statements published in the public domain creating confusion and undermining the morale of Arecanut farmers.
A Kishore Kumar Kodgi, president, Campco, said, “There is a high demand for our Chali Arecanut in Northern India, and there is no reason for prices to drop. Campco is committed to protecting the interests of Arecanut Farmers and providing honest service. Traders and Businessmen prioritise their interests over the concerns of farmers. Contrary to their claims, imported Arecanut neither matches the quality nor the price of our domestic Arecanut. We urge the Arecanut Farmers not to be misled by such rumours and to sell their produce gradually, as necessitated, to Campco or other Cooperatives. Currently, the price of Chali Arecanut has increased. Due to the improvement in the quality of new Arecanut post the rains, we assure that farmers will certainly receive better prices in the coming days. We kindly request Farmers not to mix their high-quality Arecanut with the inferior quality offered by traders for any reason.”
