Chief Minister M.K. Stalin distributed subsidized solar-powered agricultural pump sets, solar crop drying yards, and modern farm machinery to farmers across Tamil Nadu, while also inaugurating new Uzhavar Sandhais (direct farmers' markets). Emphasizing that agricultural sustainability depends on adopting green energy and reducing cultivation costs, Stalin reaffirmed his administration's determination to transform farming into an economically viable and lucrative enterprise.

Under this agricultural initiative, small and marginal farmers received off-grid solar irrigation pumps that ensure reliable watering for crops without relying on conventional power grids or costly diesel motors. The provision of hygienic community drying yards prevents post-harvest crop spoilage, enabling cultivators to preserve grains and pulses for optimal market pricing. In addition, the newly opened Uzhavar Sandhais expand direct farmer-to-consumer retailing platforms, eliminating exploitative middlemen and ensuring fair returns for producers alongside affordable produce prices for urban consumers.

Stalin asserted that empowering farmers through technological innovation, adequate subsidies, and direct market linkages remains a central priority of the state's separate agricultural budget. His comprehensive rollout delivered immediate relief to rural growers and advanced agricultural modernization across all districts of Tamil Nadu.
