Andhra Pradesh: Ensure timely credit support to tenant farmers, bankers told

District Collector V. Prasanna Venkatesh has appealed the bankers to release crop loans to the tenant farmers in the respective agriculture season itself.

At a meeting with the bakers here on Tuesday, Mr. Venkatesh said, “By the end of the first financial quarter, the banks have granted ₹21.48 crore of crop loans to 3,378 tenant farmers based on the Crop Cultivator Rights Card (CCRC) in the district.”

“Be positive and encourage the tenant farmers by granting them timely crop loans. Obtain a declaration from the land owner to certify that the land is not under tenancy so that actual tenant will have an opportunity to avail of the crop loan,” said Mr. Venkatesh.
