- The government launched the Prime Minister Dhan-Dhaanya Krishi Yojana (PMDDKY) to develop 100 aspirational agricultural districts.
- The scheme covers 29 states and union territories, with Uttar Pradesh having the most districts at 12.
- The program aims to improve agricultural productivity, crop diversification, irrigation, and credit access.
- PMDDKY will use 36 existing schemes from 11 government departments without a separate budget.
- The districts were chosen based on low productivity, moderate crop intensity, and poor access to credit.
