Agriculture, Paddy Storage In Nepal And Wheat Cultivation
A masked laborer carries a sack of paddy to load it onto a truck in Sudurpaschim, Nepal, on March 18, 2026. Traders begin clearing storage ahead of the upcoming wheat harvest season. Farmers and local vendors in the Terai region report large quantities of unsold paddy, citing reduced demand in the domestic market. They allege that the increasing import of low-cost rice from India, often polished and rebranded by major distributors, has impacted local sales, forcing small traders to vacate storage space for the next harvest.
