  • The Union Agriculture minister launched YouTube channel of National Cooperative Development Corporation (NCDC).
  • The channel will focus on encouraging youth and farmers to learn about the benefits of cooperatives.
  • The videos in the channel are to be launched in Hindi and other regional languages. The channel has so far been covering 18 states and more states are to be added in the near future.
  • The guidance videos being posted in the channel will help strengthening major initiatives of central government.
  • It will help to promote 10,000 Farmer Producer Organizations.
  • This is for deeper percolation of the schemes such as Fasal Bima Yojana, PM Kisan Credit Card Scheme.
  • In India around 86% of Indian farmers are small and marginal. Thus, the NCDC YouTube channel will act as platform to reach to these inaccessible farmers and pull them into the cooperatives
