The Government of India is implementing the AgriStack Farmer Registry to provide every eligible farmer with a unique Farmer ID. This digital identity helps farmers access government schemes, subsidies, crop-related services, and other agricultural benefits through a single verified profile. The Farmer Registry is being rolled out state by state through official AgriStack portals.
At present, 12 official state Farmer Registry portals are operational:
- Assam
- Uttar Pradesh
- Madhya Pradesh
- Bihar
- Gujarat
- Maharashtra
- Rajasthan
- Tamil Nadu
- Haryana
- Andhra Pradesh
- Odisha
- Chhattisgarh
This guide explains the complete registration process, how to check enrollment status, download your Farmer ID, required documents, eligibility, and answers to frequently asked questions.
What is AgriStack Farmer ID?
The AgriStack Farmer ID is a unique digital identification number issued after successful enrollment in the Farmer Registry. It securely links a farmer’s verified identity with land records and other agricultural information maintained by the state government.
The objective is to simplify access to agricultural services while reducing duplicate records and improving scheme delivery.
