Lucknow, April 2 -- : Chief minister Yogi Adityanath has directed that the Farmer Registry be implemented across the state on a large scale, ensuring that all farmers are registered on priority. He instructed that special camps be organised at every gram panchayat at the earliest to connect farmers with the Farmer Registry so that no eligible farmer is left out of this system. "The state government is developing the Farmer Registry as an integrated benefit delivery system in the agriculture sector. Under this system, all beneficiary-oriented schemes of the agriculture department and other related departments are linked with the Farmer Registry, enabling farmers to access benefits of multiple schemes in a simple and streamlined manner through a single identity," he said. He gave directions with regard to schemes such as the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi and crop insurance schemes, saying any errors or discrepancies in beneficiaries' names or records should be corrected on priority by linking them with Aadhaar. He also laid stress on ensuring that every eligible farmer is issued a farmer identity card so that there are no obstacles in the distribution of benefits and verification of eligibility becomes easier. The chief minister instructed the agriculture department to establish the necessary technical infrastructure to link all its schemes with the Farmer Registry within a fixed timeline and ensure that the departmental portal becomes fully functional by May 1, 2026. This will enable the process of beneficiary selection and benefit distribution to be carried out in a digital and integrated manner. He further directed allied departments such as horticulture, animal husbandry, fisheries, cooperatives and minor irrigation to coordinate with the agriculture department for the use of the farmer identity card in their respective schemes and complete the necessary preparations by May 31, 2026, so that a uniform system can be implemented across all departments. With this system's implementation, the scheme's benefits will reach farmers transparently, and reviewing cases where a single beneficiary receives repeated benefits will also become easier, he added....
