RM1m worth of gov't-allocated padi fertiliser seized in Kedah raid

A total of 18,927 bags of padi fertiliser under the Federal Government Padi Fertiliser Scheme (SBPKP) worth about RM1 million was confiscated in a raid on a business premises in Guar Chempedak yesterday.

In a statement issued yesterday, the Agriculture and Agro-Based Industry Ministry said the fertiliser was from a government allocation meant to help padi farmers reduce production costs and increase their income.

According to the ministry, the National Farmers’ Organisation (Nafas) had confirmed that it supplied the fertiliser through a government contract under the SBPKP.

It said the Domestic Trade and Consumerism Ministry, together with the MACC raided the premises and found that the owner had contravened the Control of Supplies Act 1961.

“Further investigations will be conducted to ensure that action is taken against all those involved in the sale of fertilisers on the black market.

The Guar Chempedak raid is the second conducted this month.

On July 6, 3,390 bags of fertiliser under SBPKP worth more than RM180,000 meant for the black market were seized in a factory in Kampung Kebun Sayur, Muar.
