Agriculture Minister Abdur Razzak said that the increase in
the price of fuel oil will affect the agriculture sector. He made this comment
in response to questions from journalists after speaking as the chief guest at
a workshop organized by Bangladesh Rice Research Institute in Comilla
Shilpakala Academy on Sunday (07 August) at 11 o'clock.
He said that the increase in the price of fuel will reduce
the profit of farmers. But production will not decrease. Earlier, 40 kg of
paddy was sold for 1100 or 1000 taka and profit was 100-150 taka. Now maybe the
profit will be less. But production will not decrease. The farmers of this
country are so selfless that they sell their wife's jewelry, sell cows and
goats to buy fertilizer and apply it to land.
He also said that the Honorable Prime Minister has
repeatedly said that the price of oil in the international market will decrease
only when the Russia-Ukraine war ends. We will reduce oil prices again. Now a
huge amount of subsidy has to be paid on oil, as a result of which government
warehouses, government reserves will be completely reduced, then the whole
nation will be under a threat.
Under the chairmanship of Agriculture Ministry Secretary
Saidul Islam, Comilla City Corporation Mayor Arfanul Haque Rifat, Agriculture
Extension Directorate Comilla Deputy Director Mizanur Rahman, Rice Research
Institute Comilla CEO Dr. Md. Rafiqul Islam, Deputy Commissioner Kamrul Hasan
and Police Superintendent Farooq Ahmed were present.
