AI SummaryAndhra Pradesh government is running Annadata Sukhibhava Scheme through 2026, and the first payment of the 2026-27 financial year has already reached farmers. On 20 June 2026, ₹3,125.47 crore went out to 46,85,838 farmer families at the rate of ₹7,000 per family.

What is Annadata Sukhibhava Scheme?
Annadata Sukhibhava is an income support scheme for farmers in Andhra Pradesh. Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu launched it on 2 August 2025 as one of the Super Six promises, and it took the place of the older YSR Rythu Bharosa scheme. Land-owning farmers, tenant farmers holding a CCRC card and families farming on Forest Rights Act land are all covered.

Chief Minister released the first installment of 2026-27 on 20 June 2026 from Linganguntla village in Chilakaluripet mandal, Palnadu district. Each farmer family got ₹7,000, made up of ₹5,000 from the state and ₹2,000 from PM Kisan.

Installment Dates and Amounts So Far
Payments are split across the year so that money reaches farmers around sowing time. In 2025-26 the first installment of ₹7,000 came on 2 August 2025 at the launch, the second installment of ₹7,000 came on 19 November 2025, and the third installment of ₹6,000 came on 13 March 2026 just before Ugadi, covering about 46.85 lakh farmers. The 2026-27 cycle opened on 20 June 2026 with ₹7,000 for the Kharif season, timed with PM-KISAN Utsav Diwas.
Date for the next installment of 2026-27 is not announced yet. Going by last year, it usually lands around November. State money and the PM Kisan installment are normally credited on the same day, so watch both.
Who Can Get Annadata Sukhibhava Benefit
Rules for this scheme sit on top of PM Kisan rules, so if you are already a PM Kisan farmer in Andhra Pradesh, you are mostly covered. Here is what the state checks before releasing money.
- You should be a permanent resident of Andhra Pradesh and actively doing farming, not just holding land on paper.
- Your name should be running in PM Kisan records, since the state picks eligible people from that same database.
- Tenant farmers who do not own land can still get the money if they hold a valid CCRC card, which is the Crop Cultivator Rights Card issued by the state.
- Families cultivating forest land under RoFR titles are included, and over 1.16 lakh such families got the June 2026 payment.
- Only one member of a family gets the benefit, and e-KYC has to be done either online or at a Rythu Seva Kendra.
Documents Required
Since there is no fresh form to fill, these documents matter mainly for keeping your PM Kisan and land records clean. Village officials ask for them during checking and correction drives.
- Aadhaar card, which must match the name on your bank account exactly.
- Bank passbook of an active account that is Aadhaar seeded and NPCI mapped, otherwise the DBT payment bounces.
- Land records such as pattadar passbook or adangal, or a CCRC card if you farm on lease.
- Mobile number linked with Aadhaar, used for the e-KYC OTP.
- Proof of address and a recent passport-size photo for office records.
How to Apply for Annadata Sukhibhava Scheme
There is no separate application under Annadata Sukhibhava Scheme. Farmers who are already in the PM Kisan list are picked up automatically, and the state adds its share on top. If your name is missing, the fix is to get into PM Kisan first, then update your land record at the village Rythu Seva Kendra.
Tenant farmers are the one group that needs an extra step. Go to your local Rythu Seva Kendra and get a CCRC card made for the current season, because the card is valid only for a fixed period and has to be renewed.
Money Not Credited? Here is What to Check
Most failed payments come down to four things. Pending e-KYC is the biggest one, so complete it on the PM Kisan portal or with biometrics at a Rythu Seva Kendra. Next, check that your bank account is linked to Aadhaar and mapped with NPCI, because a plain savings account without NPCI mapping will not receive DBT money. Third, an inactive or closed account will reject the credit. Fourth, wrong or missing land records on Webland can hold up the state share even when PM Kisan money arrives normally.
If everything looks fine and money is still missing, file a complaint through the grievance option on the official portal or ask the agriculture staff at your Rythu Seva Kendra. Farmers in Andhra Pradesh can also look at other state support such as Rytanna Mee Kosam program, and families with school-going children can check Thalliki Vandanam scheme.
