Solution

The correct options are
A To cover loading charges
B To cover unloading charges
C To cover transport and maintenance costs
D To cover AMY costs
Although farmers are not required to pay anything at an AMY, in practice, the traders demand from the farmers 3.5% of the trading value to cover loading, unloading, transport, and maintenance costs. Traders spend up to Rs. 10 a quintal on such expenses.
