Government Initiatives for Farmer Welfare and Disaster Management
The Ministry of Agriculture & Farmers Welfare outlines the responsibilities of State Governments in disaster management and the financial support provided by the Central Government. Key initiatives include the Modified Interest Subvention Scheme (MISS) for agricultural loans, raising the collateral-free loan limit, and a mass media campaign to disseminate information about farmers' welfare schemes. The government aims to support farmers through subsidized loans and awareness programs, especially in the wake of natural disasters.
