• Haryana's 'Meri Fasal Mera Byora' portal, launched in 2019, aims for transparent crop procurement and direct scheme benefits for farmers.
• Farmer registrations have surged, with 1.28 million farmers for Kharif 2025, covering 7.348 million acres, indicating growing trust and adoption.
• Farmers like Deepak praise the portal for simplifying crop procurement, grants, and compensation, despite occasional technical issues like OTP reception.
• The portal aids government planning by providing data on crop sowing and estimated yield, helping manage procurement and resource allocation.
