The Agrarian Insurance Board announced that compensation for crops damaged during last November’s floods will be disbursed by the end of this month.
Board Chairman Pemasiri Jasingarachchi stated that approximately 95% of crop damage assessments have been completed, with evaluations in regions such as Jaffna, Kilinochchi, Trincomalee, and Mannar nearing completion.
He assured that once final recommended compensation documents are submitted by Agrarian Development Centers, the allocated funds will be directly transferred to the bank accounts of affected farmers. This initiative aims to provide timely relief to those impacted by the floods.
