🌾 On May 25, 2026, Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay announced a significant ₹2,044.46 crore crop loan waiver, providing essential financial relief to 14.22 lakh farming families. This initiative, part of the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) government's commitment to support small-scale agriculture, covers short-term loans from cooperative banks taken between May 1, 2025, and February 28, 2026.
Outstanding loans up to ₹50,000 will be fully waived, while a 50% waiver applies to loans up to ₹1 lakh. This strategic move aims to help distressed farmers regain their economic footing and access fresh credit for the upcoming cultivation season. Together, we are nurturing the future of agriculture in Tamil Nadu! 🌱
