Andhra Pradesh CM directs officials to assess crop losses and aid affected farmers after unseasonal rains

In a move to provide aid to farmers affected by unseasonal rains, Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy of Andhra Pradesh instructed officials on Sunday to determine the extent of crop losses and to assist affected farmers promptly. The CM also directed officials to monitor the situation frequently and take necessary precautions to prevent any further negative incidents in the rain-affected areas.

Under these directives, all district collectors have been ordered to finish counting the lost crops within a week and provide assistance to farmers who have suffered crop losses due to the untimely rains. This aid will help the farmers recover from their losses and get back to farming.

It is worth noting that unseasonal rains and unexpected weather events can have a significant impact on farmers’ livelihoods, especially in agrarian states like Andhra Pradesh, where agriculture is a primary occupation. Therefore, the Chief Minister’s timely intervention will undoubtedly help farmers in their hour of need.

Overall, this initiative by the Andhra Pradesh government is a significant step towards providing much-needed support and aid to farmers who have suffered due to unforeseen weather events. It is hoped that these measures will alleviate the burden of affected farmers and provide them with the necessary support to get back on their feet.”
