What is Digital Agriculture Mission?
Digital Agriculture Mission (DAM) is a centrally sponsored scheme approved in 2024-25 Union Budget with an outlay of ₹2,817 crore to build India's Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) for agriculture. The mission has 3 core components:
(1) AgriStack — a digital ecosystem of farmer databases, land records, and crop data linked to Aadhaar;
(2) Farmer ID (Kisan ID) — a unique 11-digit digital identity for every farmer, linking their land records, KCC, PM Kisan, soil health card, and insurance data;
(3) Digital Crop Survey — satellite + AI-based crop area and production estimation in 400+ districts across India. PM-KISAN, Fasal Bima, and KCC disbursal will all be linked to Kisan ID for seamless DBT. The mission also funds hiring of 90,000 'Agriculture Sakhi' digital facilitators who help farmers access all digital agriculture services through a single app.
