PM Krishi Sinchai Yojana 2024
The Government of India has started the Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchai Yojana (PMKSY) to provide irrigation facilities to the farmers of the country and improve water shortage. This scheme was started in 2015-16 and its objective is to provide water to every farmer. Now the price of agricultural equipment has increased as compared to earlier.
which is having a bad effect on the income of farmers. In such a situation, to improve their standard of living. the subsidy has been increased to 80% in 2024. This means that farmers will now have to spend less money from their pocket to buy irrigation equipment.
Earlier the benefit of this scheme is given to the farmers of some selected states. but now in 2024 this scheme has been implemented for the farmers of the whole country. Under the Agricultural Irrigation Scheme. new irrigation equipment like drip irrigation. sprinkler irrigation and solar pump have now been included. These equipment will help in improving the efficiency of water use.
