• The Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY) is a government-backed crop insurance scheme designed to protect Indian farmers from financial losses due to weather-related risks.
• It integrates multiple stakeholders on a single platform for efficient implementation.

How Does PMFBY Work?

PMFBY integrates various stakeholders, including farmers, insurance companies, and government agencies, on a single platform. Farmers pay a nominal premium, while the government subsidises the remaining cost. In the event of crop damage, farmers can file claims, which are processed efficiently through this unified system. The scheme ensures transparency and timely compensation to affected farmers.
