The number this exists to produce
Year-three survival: 47% reported, across 74,261 farmers
Self-reported by the farmer, on the phone, with subsidy money attached to the answer. That makes it a claim, not a verification. Its value is that it did not exist at all before, and that it tells the field team which hundred of a thousand farms to actually visit.

Needs a decision today
Kollegal reports 91% survival against a Chamarajanagar median of 62%
Either exceptional or wrong. 214 farmers in that band. Recommend physical inspection on a 30-farm sample before any claim is filed.
Water shortage now the leading loss reason in 7 taluks
Up from 3 taluks last month, all in the Karnataka upper basin. Worth a field advisory before the next planting window.
KAPY claim window closes in 22 days
11,280 farmers eligible and unclaimed. Campaign is queued and not yet released.
Tamil connect rate recovered to 64% after calling-window change
Moved to 06:30 to 08:30 and 17:00 to 19:30 on the Erode and Salem cohorts.
