Punjab rice mills struggle with old stock and insufficient storage space

Punjab's rice mills are grappling with a storage shortage as they contend with old stock accumulation and incoming fresh paddy during the harvest season. The mills lack adequate warehouse space to accommodate both existing inventory and newly harvested grain, creating operational challenges.

The storage crisis threatens to disrupt the milling process and impact paddy procurement during the peak season. Mill operators are seeking solutions to manage the space constraint while processing the influx of fresh grain from farmers.
