Uttar Pradesh removes digital barrier for wheat farmers. The state has made online registration optional for farmers selling wheat at government procurement centres, reversing a mandatory requirement implemented earlier this year. The decision addresses widespread farmer hardship where many were forced to sell crops to middlemen at reduced prices due to registration difficulties. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath directed immediate implementation across all districts. This policy shift allows farmers to access minimum support price benefits without digital registration, restoring previous year procedures. The move recognizes practical challenges faced by rural farmers and aims to improve government procurement efficiency while protecting farmer incomes from middleman exploitation.
