According to millers, paddy often contains moisture, dust, and damaged grains. These factors lead to unavoidable losses during milling and storage. Because of this, millers demand that authorities allow deductions for such losses before moving the grain to warehouses.

The Grain Procurement Wastage debate intensified as millers warned that transporting full quantities without accounting for losses would cause financial problems for them. They argue that wastage occurs naturally in the milling process and must be included in procurement rules.
