I suspect underweighment and delayed payment at the mandi. How do I protect myself and what is the remedy?

Protect yourself by checking the weighment yourself, insisting on a written sale slip, and raising disputes with the market committee in writing. Watch the weighing, note the recorded weight, and get the sale slip showing rate, weight and every deduction. If the weight or payment looks wrong, first raise it with the commission agent and buyer, then complain to the APMC market committee or secretary, who regulate the yard and can act on weighment and payment grievances. Keep your gate entry, sale slip and any photos as evidence. Many states require payment within a set time, so unexplained delays can be reported. Selling on transparent platforms with electronic weighing and payment also reduces such problems.

I now stand at the weighbridge and note the figure myself. Once I caught a short weight and got it corrected on the spot. Do not leave during weighment.

When payment was delayed I complained in writing to the market committee with my sale slip. It got resolved. Keep every slip and gate entry as proof.

A photo or short video of the weighbridge reading on my phone helped me argue my case. When numbers are recorded, it is harder for anyone to dispute later. Cost me nothing and saved an argument.

Where it is available, selling through electronic weighing on eNAM removed most of this worry for me. The weight and payment are recorded in the system. Not every mandi has it yet, so ask if yours does.
