Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy on Monday directed officials to strengthen e-cropping so that the compensation to crop loss could be provided.
"Ensure that digital receipts of e-cropping are directly sent to the farmers' cellphones, so that they can directly question any crop loss. Prepare SOPs in this regard. The joint responsibility of e-cropping process should be given to VROs, survey and agriculture assistants, and the master registers containing data of lands being cultivated in the village should be made available to them,” Mr. Jagan said during a review meeting on e cropping and paddy procurement through Rythu Bharosa Kendras (RBKs) ahead of the beginning of Kharif season.
He said geo tagging and uploading photographs should be done in e-cropping and added that cropping should start from June 15 and be completed by the end of August.
