In a significant move aimed at supporting farmers across Uttar Pradesh, the Yogi Adityanath government has approved a decision that will ensure direct financial assistance into the bank accounts of lakhs of farmers. The initiative is expected to benefit cultivators across the state ahead of the upcoming agricultural season.
Direct Benefit Transfer for Farmers
According to officials, the government will transfer the approved funds directly through the Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) system to avoid delays and ensure transparency. This step has been taken to ease the financial burden of farmers who often face difficulties in arranging resources for sowing and crop management.
The state government believes that timely financial support will help farmers prepare their fields efficiently and improve overall agricultural productivity.
Aim to Strengthen Rural Economy
The Yogi government has been focusing on strengthening the rural economy through a series of welfare measures. Financial assistance schemes, fertilizer subsidies, procurement reforms, and irrigation support have been among the state’s key priorities.
Officials said that this latest announcement is expected to bring relief to a large number of small and marginal farmers who rely heavily on governmental support.
Lakhs of Farmers to Benefit
The scheme’s funds will begin reaching the accounts of eligible beneficiaries shortly. District authorities have been instructed to complete verification processes quickly so that no farmer is left out due to documentation issues.
The government is also planning awareness drives in villages to ensure that farmers understand the procedure and receive assistance without complications.
CM Yogi Adityanath’s Focus on Farmers’ Welfare
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has repeatedly emphasized that farmers are the backbone of Uttar Pradesh’s economy. He stated that the government is committed to providing them with timely support, modern farming resources, and improved market access.
Officials added that more farmer-centric announcements are likely in the coming months as part of the state’s broader agricultural roadmap.
