The newly formed Andhra Pradesh government is back with the Annadata Sukhibhava Scheme in the recently announced Super Six schemes. The scheme offers financial assistance to AP farmers, let’s see what the scheme will bring for the farmers in 2024.
Annadata Sukhibhava Scheme
The current AP government has promised Super Six schemes in their election manifesto, and now, the government will work on delivering their promises to the citizens after making the government with the NDA alliance.
The Annadata Sukhibhava Scheme is a part of the Super Six, which the current CM Chandrababu Naidu will launch again for the welfare of farmers.
Back in 2019, when Naidu was the CM of the state he launched the Annadata Sukhibhava Scheme for the farmers which was an extension of PM Kissan Samman Nidhi Yojana at the State level to support the Annadata of the state.
The government identified over 40 lakh farmers as the scheme beneficiaries in 2019, however, the government lost the election, and the YSR government named the scheme as YSR Rythu Bharosa scheme.
Now that the Naidu government is back in power, the government has renamed the YSR Rythu Bharosa scheme to the Annadata Sukhibhava Scheme to provide financial assistance to farmers.
The government has made some changes in the scheme, under the scheme, the farmers will receive annual assistance of ₹20000.
Annadata Sukhibhava Scheme Eligibility
The government has yet to announce all the changes in the scheme, but we believe the eligibility for the scheme will remain the same. The farmers can check their eligibility for the new Annadata Sukhibhava Scheme from the below eligibility criteria:
- The applicants should be permanent residents of the AP state.
- The farmers who hold farming land or the tenant farmers are eligible.
- The scheme favors the marginal small farmers of the state who need financial support.

Now, the farmers can expect assistance of around ₹6000 per installment under the scheme.
