Farmers affected by crop damage caused by the 2025–26 North-East Monsoon and Cyclone Ditwah were included in a Tamil Nadu government relief package.
The state government sanctioned approximately ₹111.96 crore from the State Disaster Response Fund for 84,848 farmers across affected districts, including Viluppuram. The relief was based on crop-damage surveys and was intended for agricultural and horticultural crops where the assessed damage exceeded the applicable threshold.
