Crop Compensation In Tamil Nadu: The problems of the farmers of the country are not taking the name of being reduced. In the Kharif season, floods, rains and drought had damaged the crops of the farmers. After that frost caused trouble, now in January and February rain and hailstorm ruined the crops. A similar picture of crop failure had also emerged from Tamil Nadu. Here the crop was affected in many areas due to rain. Now the state government has taken steps to help the farmers.
20 thousand rupees per hectare will be compensated
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin on Monday announced that a relief package of Rs 20,000 per hectare would be given to farmers in the Cauvery delta. This compensation will be given to those farmers whose crops have been affected by heavy rains. Crop affected is 33 percent or more. Paddy sowing is more in this area. The farmers have thanked the state government for the help. Farmers say that this step of the state government has worked to heal the wounds of the farmers.
Crop survey will be done to give compensation
To give compensation to the farmers, the survey of the crop will also be done at the departmental level. Instructions have been issued from the state government level that the revenue and agriculture departments will work together to assess crop damage caused by unseasonal heavy rains. If the crop has already been surveyed regarding insurance, then additional evaluation will be done. It is the endeavor of the state government that no farmer should be deprived of getting the right of compensation.
More than 6 lakh hectares of crop was damaged
It has rained heavily in Tamil Nadu in the last few days. The affected areas included the delta districts of Thanjavur, Tiruchirappalli, Mayiladuthurai, Nagapattinam, Tiruvarur, Ariyalur and Pudukottai. The condition has been that the main crops of the farmers here have been washed away due to heavy rains. The area of Kaveri delta itself has come under the grip of excess rains. More than 6 lakh hectares of crops have been destroyed here. These include paddy, pulses and other crops. Now the farmers have got relief from the announcement of the state government.
