Farmers in Rasuwa district have been worried due to lack of market for their main production. They complained that their main source of income potato began to decay as they could not take the village products in the market.
The potatoes have started to decay as the farmers could not take to store as the rural road at Rasuwa-Mulkharka was disrupted since mid-June, said Mingmar Duje Tamang, a local farmer. The villagers have to bear the loss of around Rs. 5 million in Gatalangi VDC of the district, he added.
Potato is the main crop in the district as millet, maize and other crops are produced in less quantity due to cold in the district. The farmers manage their expenses by selling the potato.
