Officials busy with SIR, farmers facing trouble in insuring paddy
The New Indian Express
|November 13, 2025
WITH only three days left for the deadline for farmers to enrol in PM Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY), only 1,68,447 hectares (48%) of samba paddy crop has been insured in the delta districts of Thanjavur, Tiruvarur, Nagapattinam, Mayiladuthurai and Tiruchy.
Several reasons are attributed to the low enrolment, including involvement of village officials' in the SIR of electoral rolls due to which farmers could not obtain certificates and documents.
To enrol in PMFBY, farmers have to pay premium of ₹564 per acre for samba paddy for a sum assured of ₹37,600 per acre. The last date to pay the premium is November 15.
