UP Agri Markets Grow Revenue Amid Digital Integration and Scheme Linkages
Uttar Pradesh's agricultural markets saw a 15% revenue increase to over ₹2,300 crore in FY26, driven by mandi modernization and digital integration under Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. Concurrently, the government is integrating 102.8 million farmer IDs with schemes like PM-KISAN and procurement platforms to enhance service delivery, especially for small farmers. A pilot digital fertiliser distribution platform has also been launched in 56 districts across 23 states to improve transparency and efficiency in fertiliser supply.
