AN enhancement of the minimum support price (MSP) by the central government for 14 notified crops, including paddy, for kharif marketing season (KMS) 2025-26 notwithstanding, the support price of paddy for farmers in Odisha will likely remain unchanged at ₹3,100 per quintal.

With the KMS 2025-26 starting from November 1, 2025, the Food Supplies and Consumer Welfare (FS&CW) department in a notification said the price of common variety of paddy has been increased from ₹2,300 to ₹2,369 per quintal while the Grade-A variety has been raised from ₹2,320 to ₹2,389 per quintal. This is on line with the enhancement of MSP by the Centre in June.

Sources in the FS&CW department said that farmers of the state will continue to get ₹3,100 per quintal in the current kharif marketing season notwithstanding the upward revision of the MSP by the central government.
