The "Jharkhand Rajya Fasal Rahat Yojana" was launched by the Department of Agriculture, Animal Husbandry & Cooperative, Government of Jharkhand. This scheme is mainly to provide financial assistance to the farmers in the event of crop damage due to any natural calamity and natural accidents. The scheme is not a crop insurance scheme but a compensation scheme provided to farmers in case of crop damage. This will fulfill the objective of providing security coverage to farmers in case of crop loss due to natural calamities and providing a certain financial assistance. This scheme will cover both the land owner and the landless farmer. Farmers will not need to pay any kind of crop insurance premium under this scheme and they will be provided financial assistance directly by the government in the event of crop loss.
Objective:
  • To provide financial assistance to farmers affected by crop damage due to unforeseen natural calamities or events.
  • To strengthen the income of the farmers to continue the agricultural work.
