(i) Diverting the grains to open market to get better margin.
(ii) Selling poor quality grains.
(iii) Irregular opening of the shops.

(a) Minimum Support Price: The FCI purchases wheat and rice from the farmers in
states where there is surplus production. The farmers are paid a pre-announced price for their crops. This price is called Minimum Support Price. The MSP is declared by the government every year before the sowing season to provide incentives to the farmers for raising the
production of these crops. The purchased food grains are stored in granaries.
(b) Buffer Stock: Buffer stock is the stock of food grains, namely wheat and rice
procured by the government through food corporation of India (FCI).
(c) Issue Price : The buffer stock is created to distribute food grains in the deficit areas and among the poorer strata of society at a price lower than the market price also known as the Issue Price.
(d) Fair Price Shops : Ration shops. also known as Fair Price Shops, keep stock of
Food grains, sugar and kerosene oil for cooking. These items are sold to people at a price lower than the market price. Any family with a ration card can buy a stipulated amount of these items every month from the nearby ration shop.
This is done to distribute food grains in the deficit areas and among the poorer strata of society at a price lower than the market price also known as Issue price. This also helps resolve the problem of shortage of food during adverse weather conditions or during the periods of calamity.
