The meeting of farmers' leaders with the central government concluded in the national capital on December 03.
The next meeting will be held on December 05.
Speaking to media, Agriculture Minister Narendra Tomar said, "Some points have been raised in previous meetings and today's meeting.
Farmer unions are mainly concerned about these.
Government has no ego, it was discussing with farmers with an open mind.
Farmers are concerned that the new laws will end APMCs." "Government will contemplate about seeing that APMC is further strengthened and its usage increases.
New laws lay down provision for private mandis outside purview of Agricultural Produce Market Committee (APMC).
So, we will also contemplate about having an equal tax for private as well as mandis under AMPC Act," he added.
"It was raised in meeting that if trade takes place outside the purview of mandi, it will take place on the basis of PAN Card, which can be easily acquired by anyone today.
So, trader should be registered.
So, we will also ensure that the trader gets registered," Agriculture Minister further stated.
