"Barish Bima Yogna" (BBY) provides insurance cover to farmers against damage to crops due to deficiency in rainfall. The cover is available in the districts of Jhunjhunu, Sikar, Jaipur, Hanumangarh, Chittorgarh and Sriganganagar. The launch of BBY here the other day was attended by Surinder Kumar Jakhar, IFFCO Chairman, Surendrapal Singh TT, Rajasthan Minister of State for Agriculture, K.
