Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to release ₹18,000 crore in funds to farmers today as part of ongoing government support aimed at strengthening the agriculture sector. The financial assistance will be transferred directly to beneficiaries under flagship schemes designed to enhance farm productivity and ensure economic stability for cultivators.
During his visit to Tamil Nadu, the Prime Minister will also inaugurate a major national-level farming summit focused on innovation, sustainability, and modern agricultural practices. The event will bring together experts, scientists, policy makers, and farmer groups to discuss strategies that can boost crop yields, improve soil health, and promote advanced technologies in rural regions.
Officials stated that the initiative underscores the government’s commitment to empowering farmers through timely financial aid and exposure to modern tools and techniques. The upcoming sessions at the summit will highlight precision farming, water conservation measures, and market-linked support systems.
The release of funds is expected to benefit millions of farmers across the country, offering crucial support ahead of the upcoming agricultural season. The government aims to continue strengthening rural economies by expanding welfare schemes and increasing investment in agricultural infrastructure.
The day’s events mark a significant step toward promoting sustainable agriculture and reinforcing long-term growth in India’s farming sector.
