Truckers' strike add to soya farmers' woes

As the nationwide transport strike enters its seventh day, soyabean farmers in Vidarbha are feeling the pinch. The region is already dealing with crisis among cotton farmers. And now the transporters strike is adding to their ever increasing problems. Baliram Ghate, a farmer from Shivangaon, is getting impatient. Striking transporters have left him struggling to save his produce from rotting. His place is just over an hour's drive from Nagpur.
