Awareness Generation Activities Carried Out Under PMFBY

Bharti AXA General Insurance Company Ltd has actively carried out awareness generation activities in the states in all the four seasons (Kharif 2017, Kharif 2018, Rabi 2017-18, Rabi 2018-19). Right from distribution of leaflets, display of posters and banners in vernacular language, we have made our efforts to reach out to the maximum number of farmers. Reaching out to the last mile has its own set of challenges. We have used marketing strategies that are effective in rural areas including van campaigns, autorickshaw campaigns, performance of street plays, etc. These have helped us to increase the penetration of the scheme and increase the number of farmers insured under the scheme.
