As per the agreement between SFPC and the farmers, the company will get a commission of 1.5 per cent for every Rs 100 transaction. Farmers will have to bear the transportation expenses to the warehouse of Sindhnore itself along with the sacks to pack the crop. SFPC Managing Director Mallikarjun Valkaladinni said that the third party will test the quality of the paddy kept in the warehouse. Once satisfied with the quality, the agents of Reliance will provide space to the crop. Presently, 500 quintals of paddy are kept in the warehouse. After purchase, Reliance will pay online to SFPC. After this, SFPC will deposit the money directly into the farmers’ account.
