Speaking on the occasion, the District Development Commissioner said that projects identified under holistic development of agriculture and allied sectors would not only energize the agriculture sector but will also change the economic fortune of the farming community of Poonch district.
Bankers were also directed to ensure the enrolment of all KCC holding farmers on NCI portal for their registration under recently launched Fasal Bima Yojana well before the cut off date of 15-07-2023 for insurance of notified crops Paddy & Maize during ongoing season while Wheat for Rabi crops.
To facilitate and uplift poor farmers with credit linked schemes, the DDC impressed upon the bankers to put in added efforts to make ease in credit facilities for the farmers by focusing on potential areas.
