Food and Land Affairs Advisor Ali Imam Majumder stated that Bangladesh’s food situation is highly satisfactory due to a bumper Boro harvest. He emphasized the need for continuous monitoring despite current success. Procurement targets in Patuakhali and Barguna are nearly met. The government is buying rice and paddy at increased prices to support farmers. A proposal to raise food subsidies to Tk 9,500 crore for FY 2025–26 has been made to ensure affordable food for low-income groups.
