Prime Minister Tarique Rahman inaugurated the 'Farmer Card' program on April 14, 2026, at Shaheed Maruf Stadium in Tangail Sadar Upazila, marking the beginning of a nationwide initiative to distribute 27.5 million cards over the next five years.

During the event, the Prime Minister emphasized that the well-being of Bangladesh depends on the prosperity of its farmers. He stated that the government is engaging with agricultural traders to ensure better prices for farmers and that both domestic and foreign investors have shown interest in building cold storage facilities.
