I feel we should have very strong storage facilities to store this vegtables. it is really waste of money poor farmers.

With so many poor people in the country surely these vegetables could have been donated to them. Not to mention orphanages, old peoples homes and rural hospitals. It is disgrace that in a country such as Sri Lanka such things are happening. What about the concept of dhana ?
