How the digital farmer registry is created

- Assigns unique geo-referenced land parcel identifiers (Bhu-Aadhaar/ULPIN) to every agricultural plot.
- Captures seasonal digital crop surveys via mobile applications to record verified crop sowing data.
Registration and verification process
Farmers can register through local revenue verification camps, Common Service Centres (CSCs), or dedicated state digital agriculture portals. Verification is completed via biometric or Aadhaar OTP authentication matched against state land revenue records.
