Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin commended Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare Minister M.R.K. Panneerselvam for presenting a forward-looking, farmer-centric Agriculture Budget for the 2024-25 fiscal year. Stalin stated that just as the sun nurtures agricultural fields, the Dravidian Model government serves as an unwavering pillar of support for farming communities across the state. Tamil Nadu stands among the few states in the country presenting a dedicated, exclusive annual budget for agriculture, demonstrating its commitment to rural livelihoods and agrarian self-reliance.

The Chief Minister underscored that the budget balances traditional farming wisdom with modern agro-technologies, introducing targeted subsidies, modernized irrigation networks, and enhanced procurement mechanisms for pulses and oilseeds. Key provisions focus on expanding organic cultivation, soil health restoration, crop insurance coverage, and farm mechanization for marginal landholders. Stalin noted that farmers' pride and economic security remain central to his government's administrative philosophy.

Stalin called upon agriculture department officials, extension workers, and elected representatives to ensure that every sanctioned scheme reaches farmers directly in their villages. He reiterated his administration's determination to double agricultural productivity and guarantee remunerative incomes for agrarian households across Tamil Nadu.
