The State Farmers Registry under the AgriStack DPI covers all the landholding farmers, including women farmers, livestock and fisheries and provides them a digital identity called Farmer ID. The Farmers Registry application also has the provision to onboard all the landholding farmers, as well as cultivators such as tenants & sharecroppers. As of 19.03.2026, more than 9.20 Crore Farmer IDs have been generated, including 47.63 lakh Farmer IDs in Bihar. Details of State-wise Farmer IDs generated is given in Annexure.

The Government consistently evaluates the outcomes of FIDs. It enables seamless integration of Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) schemes such as registrations under Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojna (PM Kisan), Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojna (PMFBY), Minimum Support Price (MSP) based procurement, access to credit delivery, input distribution, and disaster relief. States are using Farmer IDs to ease the lives of farmers. Maharashtra has successfully leveraged AgriStack for scheme delivery, Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based advisory, providing credit access, and disaster relief including the transfer of over ₹14,000 crore to 89 lakh farmers for Kharif 2025 crop losses in 5 days. Chhattisgarh has institutionalized Farmer ID and Digital Crop Survey for MSP-based paddy procurement, covering over 32 lakh farmers in a single season, significantly improving ease of registration by farmers, as well as transparency, crop verification, and timeliness of MSP payments.

Although internet penetration has increased in rural areas, additional steps have been taken to ensure the digital inclusion of farmers who do not have mobile phones. They can use existing support structures like Farmer-Producer Organisations (FPOs), KrishiSakhis, and Common Service Centres (CSCs) to get them registered on AgriStack and access services and benefits. Further, the States are organizing the camps so that no farmer is left out of getting the benefits of AgriStack.
