- The Central Research Institute for Dryland Agriculture (CRIDA) scientists have developed an early warning system called the ‘Farmers Distress Index’.
- CRIDA is an Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) organ.
- The Index has been built on the 21-simple questions, divided into seven blocks of three questions each.
- By receiving answers to those questions, we can tell whether they are experiencing distress or not.
- The Development of this index is part of the NABARD-funded project on ‘Farmers Distress and Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY)’.
