A.P. Farmers’ Association alleges exploitation of oil palm growers, seeks new oil fed plant at Pedavegi

The A.P. Farmers’ Association has raised concerns over the exploitation of oil palm growers by companies that have challenged the government's decision to set the Oil Extraction Rate (OER) at 20.5%. This situation highlights the ongoing conflict between agricultural policies and corporate interests, which is significant for farmers' livelihoods. The association's demand for a new oil-fed plant at Pedavegi underscores the need for sustainable agricultural practices and fair pricing mechanisms in the oil palm industry.
