Farmer ID 2026: What is it, how to make it, and full process in UP, Haryana, Bihar, MP, Rajasthan

To make the agriculture sector digital in India, the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare has started the Farmer ID or Farmer Registry system under the AgriStack initiative.

This system creates a digital identity of farmers, so that they can get the benefits of all government schemes directly and in a transparent way.

1. What is Farmer ID?

Farmer ID is a unique digital identification number, which links the farmer’s Aadhaar and their land records.

Information included in this ID:

• Farmer’s name and Aadhaar details
• Land details (Khasra/Khatauni/Jamabandi)
• Crop information
• Bank account (for DBT)
• Status of government schemes

👉 In simple language:
Farmer ID = Digital profile of farmer + Key to government schemes

2. What is Farmer Registry (FR)?

Farmer Registry is a central digital database where complete data of farmers is stored safely.

Its purpose:

• To create a unified database of all farmers
• To strengthen DBT (Direct Benefit Transfer)
• To remove fake beneficiaries
• To ensure benefits of schemes reach the right farmers

3. Why Farmer ID is important?

In today’s time, Farmer ID is gradually being linked with all schemes.

Main reasons:

• Direct money transfer through DBT
• One platform for all schemes
• Transparency and fraud control
• Future digital agriculture ecosystem

👉 In future, it may become mandatory for many schemes.

4. Benefits of Farmer ID

After creating Farmer ID, farmers get many big benefits. It is not just an identity but is becoming the main medium to access government schemes.
