Tamil Nadu farmers demand fairer sugarcane pricing and traditional jaggery in Pongal gifts to boost rural incomes.
Tamil Nadu delta farmers are urging the state to replace white sugar with mould jaggery and increase sugarcane stems in the Pongal gift pack, citing unfair procurement practices where contractors profit while farmers receive only Rs 13–15 per cane despite the government paying Rs 35.
They demand direct payments at Rs 45 per cane to ensure transparency and support rural livelihoods, emphasizing the cultural and economic benefits of promoting traditional jaggery production and fair farmer compensation.
