Low quality smuggled Indian jute seeds have flooded the markets of Jessore district during peak sowing season of jute seeds, it is alleged.

A section of dishonest seed traders from the district are cheating innocent farmers which may result into causing jute production to fall.

According to sources, some people in bordering areas of district have been engaged in smuggling low quality Indian jute seeds during last one-month.

These seeds are being marketed through the small seed traders. The smuggled seeds are being repacked to fool innocent jute growers and are marketed by small seed traders.

These seeds are being sent to other parts of the country by buses, trucks and other vehicles.

Jute production has fallen drastically in the district since 1998 due to low market prices, discouraging jute growers to cultivate cash crop.
