Key Points
- About: Agri Stack is a government-led digital foundation designed to bring together all stakeholders in the agriculture sector, improve outcomes for farmers, and enable new services through data-driven solutions.
- Implementation: The initiative launched by the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare is built on the India Enterprise Architecture (InDEA) 2.0 framework developed by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology.
- Agri Stack follows an open, federated model with State Governments at the centre of the design, ensuring inclusivity and collective participation in the sector’s digital evolution.
- Components:
- Farmer and Farmland Plot Registries: A centralised database for farmers, linked to their farmland plot records for planning, advisory, and scheme delivery, with a unique FarmerID based on Aadhaar.
- Unified Farmer Service Interface (UFSI): A system for seamless data exchange across stakeholders in the Agri Stack, enabling easy access for government, banks, agri-tech companies, and private users.
- Crop Sown Registry: A registry for more accurate and efficient crop data collection using advanced technology (smartphone, drone, satellite), which aids in better crop production estimates by the government.
