With this, he said, each farmer receives Rs 5,500 directly into his bank accounts from the government.

Another Rs 2,000 from the Centre as part of the PM Kisan Yojana was also disbursed to the beneficiary farmers across the state.The Chief Minister said,” We have distributed Rs 61,500 to each farmer till now.”

With the present distribution of Rs 3,923 crore under Rythu Bharosa, the state government has disbursed Rs 30,985 crore to farmers in the last four years.“By comparison, the previous TDP government, which had promised to waive Rs 87,000 crore of crop loans in 2014, paid only Rs 15,000 crore to them, betraying the mandate of the farmers, he said.

Jagan Mohan Reddy said the YSRC government has distributed more than what was assured to the people by him during the 2019 elections.A financial assistance of Rs 12,500 per year for four years had been promised in the YSRC manifesto for the farmers in 2019.“However, this government has extended the scheme for its full five years, the extended assistance coming to Rs 13,500 every year,” he stated.

Chief Minister Jagan Reddy said that the TDP government had procured 2.65 crore tonne of paddy from the farmers in its five years.By contrast, the YSRC government completed procurement of 3.09 crore tonne till now in a the past four years.“We are going to establish 11 district-level seed and soil testing laboratories attached to Rythu Bharosa Kendras,” he said.

“We are going to deposit insurance support to the farmers in July or August this year marking the birth anniversary of former chief minister late Y.S.Rajasekhar Reddy,” he said and assured the farmers that farm equipment worth of Rs 1,052 crore would be available for farmers at the RBKs with a 10 per cent beneficiary contribution, 40 per cent subsidy and 50 per cent of bank loan component.

He said the government is converting Gram Sachivalayam offices in villages into sub-registrar offices for transactions at the doorsteps of villagers.“Farmers have benefited hugely in the dairy sector after the entry of Amul brand in the state.Amul has increased milk procurement price by Rs 10-17 per litre.

As a result, the private dairies such as Heritage had to increase the milk purchasing price.Farmers relying on the dairy sector have gained significantly,” he said.

The Chief Minister described the TDP’s latest election manifesto as a “kichadi of imitative stuff copied from other manifestos,” while the YSRC manifesto took birth from the hearts of the people.”

“The TDP manifesto was born in Karnataka, like the ‘bisi bele bath’,” he said in jest.
