What the 7/12 shows
The 7/12 combines two village forms: Form 7 shows the owner, area and rights, and Form 12 shows the crops grown and land use. It also lists loans or encumbrances on the land. The crop record now comes from the e-Peek Pahani survey, so record your crop every season.
Your 7/12 is needed for almost every farm scheme, including the AgriStack Farmer ID and Kisan Credit Card.
