KATHMANDU, June 18: Farmers have thrown tomatoes on the roadside of Kalimati in Kathmandu after they failed to sell their produce even at Rs 4 per kg. 

Farmers, who came to Kalimati fruit and vegetable market with tomatoes on Sunday morning, threw 92,000 kilos of tomatoes on the road, complaining that they did not get a fair price in the market.

The farmers threw tomatoes away citing no sales even at Rs 4 per kg. This has also resulted in traffic congestion and food waste.
