Krishi Raksha Yojana: UP government started a new initiative for farmers
“Krishi Raksha Yojana” is a new program launched by the Government of Uttar Pradesh for farmers. This program was developed to assist the farmers of the state in dealing with agricultural emergencies. The goal of the program is to protect farmers from agricultural losses caused by pests, diseases and natural disasters. This will result in farmers being able to protect and grow their crops.
Primary Goal of Krishi Raksha Yojana
Helping farmers deal with problems faced in agricultural activity is the primary goal of the Krishi Raksha Yojana. Farmers of the state suffer a lot due to agricultural diseases, chemical effects and constantly changing weather. To protect their crops and increase productivity, farmers will get insurance, assistance and advice from agricultural experts under this program.
Farmers will get financial and technical assistance.
Farmers will also get technical assistance under the Krishi Raksha Yojana. They will get instructions on how to use pesticides, when to sow seeds and fertilizers, and learn new agricultural practices. Apart from this, the state government will provide financial assistance to the farmers so that they can get the necessary resources for better crop protection and production.
Importance of Agriculture Security Insurance Program
In this scheme, agriculture security insurance also plays an important role. Farmers will get reimbursement under this insurance for agricultural losses caused by natural disasters like hailstorm, drought, flood, etc. Farmers will feel more relieved knowing that their hard work will not be wasted by the disaster and they will get proper remuneration thanks to this insurance scheme.
The program of the state government will be beneficial for the farmers.
Under the Agriculture Security Scheme, the state government will provide proper direction and assistance to the farmers. This will give the farmers a way to deal with the challenges in their agricultural labor along with being financially secure. Also, this scheme will assist in increasing the agriculture industry of the state.
Additional Guidance: The scheme has to be implemented more effectively.
This effort of the Uttar Pradesh government can benefit the farmers, but if it is implemented well then the accountability of the government officials also increases. The government has to ensure that all farmers benefit from the programme and all necessary resources are made available on time.
