State Government to Aid Tenant Farmers with Increased Support
The state government wants to help tenant farmers, who rent land to grow crops.
They're using Crop Cultivator Rights Cards (CCRCs) to make it easier for these farmers to get loans and other benefits.
Officials met to discuss how to give loans to farmers with these cards, following the rules of a 2019 law.
Last year, they did a good job, lending out a lot of money to these farmers.
They're working to make sure banks and officials work together better so farmers can get their loans easily.
The state government is committed to empowering tenant farmers.
The Crop Cultivator Rights Cards (CCRCs) initiative streamlines access to credit and government schemes.
Officials met to discuss CCRC lending and compliance with the AP Crop Cultivators Rights Act.
In 2024–25, 91% of the CCRC lending target was achieved, with Rs 4,474.11 crore disbursed.
Instructions were issued to improve coordination for loan sanctions to CCRC holders.
