Assam has completed 42% of the Pilot Digital Crop Survey (DCS) till October 24, with the survey presently underway in 11 selected revenue circles of 7 districts in the state.
Currently, the collection and compilation of crop statistics is “completely manual” except in a few states, resulting in “delay” and “manual errors”.
The Centre has launched digital crop survey in 12 states on a pilot basis from kharif (summer-sown) season of this year for better sowing data collection. "Government has launched pilot on Digital Crop Survey (DCS) in the 12 states from Kharif -2023," agriculture minister Narendra Singh Tomar said in a written reply to Lok Sabha.
