Farmers have been advised to register their details through Rythu Seva Kendras using the CM app with help from village agriculture assistants (VAAs), and then book their slot for sale through the ‘Kapas Kisan’ app. Sales will take place only at CCI-approved ginning mills that meet quality standards.
