Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Thursday said that the government will procure black moong at Minimum Support Price (MSP).

In a conversation with ANI, he also said that the process of registrations will start on July 18.

"Farmers in Madhya Pradesh have produced black moong in the summers but their prices in the market are very low. Since we are a government of the farmers, we have decided to purchase the Moong at the MSP of Rs 7,275 per quintal," CM Chouhan said.

MSP stands for the Minimum Support Price which the government offers to pay to the crop producers, to ensure no loss to the farmers.
