Due to lack of proper storage, many farmers have to suffer heavy losses. Many farmers are forced to sell their produce at low prices to avoid this loss. At the same time, with the help of warehouses, farmers are able to keep their produce safe for a longer time. If we talk about Bihar, there are many districts here where even today the facility of warehouse is not available. Due to this, the farmers of the state are very upset. Not every farmer is financially capable to open a warehouse. That is why the government is giving subsidy to farmers on opening warehouses.
The Bihar government has started the “Warehouse Subsidy Scheme” to solve the problem related to crop storage of the farmers of the state. The main objective of this scheme is to help the farmers of the state to keep their crops safe for a long time and get better prices. By taking advantage of this scheme, farmers will be able to keep their crops safe for a long time and will also be able to get good profits by selling them in the market at the right time. Let us tell you that through this scheme, subsidy will be given for building warehouses with a capacity of 100 and 200 metric tonnes. To avail the benefits of the scheme, farmers can visit the DBT portal (dbtagriculture.bihar.gov.in) and apply.
