Subsequent Monday (June 17) Eid-ul-Azha or Eid of Sacrifice will likely be celebrated. As such, there’s solely sooner or later left for Eid. A five-day public vacation has began yesterday (June 14). Due to this, the farmers and merchants who introduced sacrificial animals to the capital’s Mohammadpur Bachila animal market anticipated that the sacrificial animal market could be crowded from Friday.
On Saturday (June 15) within the afternoon, going to the non permanent animal market of Bichla, it may be seen that though there’s a crowd of consumers and sellers, the gross sales are low. Nevertheless, the variety of consumers has elevated in comparison with the final two or three days, mentioned the farmers and merchants of the market. Nonetheless they don’t seem to be proud of the sale.
At midday, it may be seen on the bottom, the vendor’s demand has accrued, however the purchaser is much less. Most of those that got here are leaving after scrutinizing the bargains. As a consequence of low gross sales, there’s not a lot stress within the incomes room.
Farmers and merchants who carry sacrificial animals to the market say that consumers are quoting a lot decrease costs. Most consumers come to browse, purchase later.
Alternatively, consumers say that the value of cow is way greater than final yr. Farmers and merchants are asking not less than 15 to twenty thousand extra for the value of every cow from 80 thousand to 1.5 lakh taka. Medium-sized (80 thousand to 1 and a half lakh) home cows have been seen extra within the Bichla animal market.
Dealer Nazmul Huda introduced 20 cows from Ullapara in Sirajganj. He purchased these cows from native farmers. Within the final two days solely three cows have been bought. He mentioned, in comparison with final yr, the value of cattle is barely greater this yr. Nevertheless, as a result of excessive worth of beef feed, the price of manufacturing has elevated and they’re dropping cash by promoting the cows. The farmers and ranchers who bought their cows from their houses to merchants like us a few weeks in the past obtained somewhat higher worth. Now the market goes down. We is not going to increase capital this time.
Sadek Agro introduced 40 cows. Amongst these, probably the most engaging is a cow of Shahiwal breed weighing 10 maunds. The asking worth is 4 and a half lakhs. Sadek Agro’s Sultan mentioned, the sale of huge cows is much less this time. Solely 5 cows have been bought within the final two days and until this morning. All of them are between 150,000 to 180,000.
Nazim Uddin, who introduced a cow weighing seven and a half maunds, mentioned {that a} vendor within the village requested for 2 lakh taka. Thus far nobody has requested the value of a couple of and a half lakh available in the market. I’d have gotten a greater worth if I had bought it over the past quick. I purchased the calf of this cow for 1 lakh 25 thousand taka. I’ve fostered for 2 years. Promoting on the worth the consumers are asking will lead to a loss. Nonetheless hoping to get a greater worth today.
Bogra dealer Emdad Munsi mentioned, I’ve introduced 10 cows. I’ve bought three of them. However the worth was not as anticipated. Nobody is asking the value of 4 to 5 maund cows a couple of to 1 and a half lakh rupees. If the value of every cow is 15-20 thousand extra, I’ll promote it.
Shamim, a resident of Mohammadpur Banshbari space, mentioned that every cow appears to price 15 to twenty thousand taka greater than final yr. I can not even wish to purchase two cows for 3 lakh rupees. I’ll attempt to purchase once more tomorrow.
Shoaib, the consultant of M/s Shaheen Worldwide, the lessee of the hut, mentioned that as a lot because the hut was presupposed to be bought, it has not been bought but. Not even 100 cows have been bought within the final two days. I’m assuming that 500 to 1000 cows will likely be bought as we speak.
In the meantime, the consumers assume that the value of goats is identical as final yr. Trying across the market, Khasi weighing 15 to twenty kg is being bought at Tk 18,000 to Tk 20,000.
