Nepal's Ministry of Agriculture Resumes Farmer Registration After Five-Month Hiatus
The Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Development in Nepal has restarted the registration process for farmers after a five-month suspension. This initiative is crucial for farmers to access various government services and subsidies, including chemical fertilizers, seeds, and financial assistance. The registration is being conducted in collaboration with local authorities to ensure the accurate identification of genuine farmers. The process involves collecting integrated data on land area under cultivation, crop production, and other relevant details. According to the Agricultural Census 2078, there are 4.1 million farmers in Nepal, of which 2.3 million have already been registered. The Agriculture Information and Training Center has urged farmers to register at their local offices, classifying them into four categories based on landholding, income, and farm output: subsistence, small, medium, and large farmers.
