<h1>Cabinet Approves MSP Hike for Copra: Milling Copra at Rs. 10,335/quintal, Ball Copra at Rs. 10,600/quintal.</h1> The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs, led by the Prime Minister, has approved an increase in the Minimum Support Price (MSP) for copra for the 2021 season. The MSP for milling copra is raised by Rs. 375 to Rs. 10,335 per quintal, and for ball copra by Rs. 300 to Rs. 10,600 per quintal. This decision, based on the Commission for Agricultural Costs and Prices' recommendations, ensures a return of over 50% on production costs, aligning with the government's goal to double farmers' incomes by 2022.
