The Government, of Karnataka, had taken a series of steps in order to mitigate the distress of the farmers in consultation with the members of the committee. 

They are:

1. Health Insurance Scheme: For the farmers, Yashaswini Health Scheme was introduced by paying Rs. 120 per year per family, to get the best medical facilities available in the state-run hospitals covered for all surgical interventions and outpatient services at any of the designated network of hospitals. 

2. Reduced interest rate: The Government reduced the interest on loans taken from Cooperative banks, from 6% to 4% which helped the farmers a lot.

3. Compensation: To the family of the victims who have committed suicide was thoroughly reviewed and compensation was allowed only in the cases where suicide was directly related to farming activities. 

4. Raita Sampaka kendras: were provided with internet access and telephone facilities so that the initial signals of distress were transmitted directly to the State headquarters. 

5. Crop insurance: Was taken up to Hobli level and compensation provided to the farmers based on the Hobli level data. In case of crop failures, compensation will be given according to the estimate. Seed and medicine subsidy up to 50% have also allowed to farmers been The investment on Watershed Development programmes was increased tenfold and that has created increased employment opportunities in the rainfed areas. Narega programmes have been also introduced. These are the steps taken by Government to mitigate farmer’s suicides.
