Digital Agriculture Mission - AgriStack, Former ID

The Indian government has started the Digital Agriculture Mission to help farmers using technology. One important part of this mission is AgriStack, a digital system that collects farmer information.
What is AgriStack?
AgriStack is like Aadhaar but for farmers. It helps the government keep records of farmers and their land. Farmers will get a Farmer ID, a special number that makes it easy to apply for government benefits.
AgriStack has three main parts:
- Farmer Registry – A list of farmers in every state.
- Geo-Referenced Village Maps – Digital maps to help in farming.
- Crop Sown Registry – A list of crops grown by farmers.
Why is the Farmer Registry Important?
The Farmer Registry is a government database that keeps track of farmers and their land records. This makes sure that farmers get benefits like loans, subsidies, and PM-KISAN payments.
Features of the Farmer Registry
- Farmer’s Personal Details – Name, contact number, and address.
- Land Ownership – Information about the land the farmer owns.
- Real-Time Updates – Any change in land ownership is updated automatically.
- State-Specific Information – Different states may ask for different details.
