(a) the number of farmers registered for the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana, State-wise;
(b) the number of farmers from Tamil Nadu who have availed the Yojana for both Kharif and Rabi seasons, district-wise; and
(c) the number of insured farmers who were provided compensation due to the failure of crops in Tamil Nadu during the Rabi season (October-March)?
ANSWER
MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF AGRICULTURE AND FARMERS WELFARE
(SHRI PARSHOTTAM RUPALA)
(a) to (c): State-wise details (including Tamil Nadu) of farmers registered under Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY) during Kharif 2016 and Rabi 2016-17 seasons are at Annexure-I. The number of farmers from Tamil Nadu, who have availed the Yojana for both Kharif and Rabi seasons, district-wise is at Annexure-II. As per scheme guidelines assessment of yield losses suffered/likely to be suffered by farmers depend on the outcome of crop cutting experiments which are undertaken by the respective State Government. In respect of Rabi 2016-17, the cut off date for submission of yield data by the State Government to the insurance companies is one month from the date of harvest of Rabi crops. Therefore, yield based final assessment of losses can only be undertaken after that. Further, no claims have been paid in Tamil Nadu under prevented sowing/failed germination, mid season adversity, localised calamity during this period.
