To promote organic farming, the central and state governments are running many schemes, so that more farmers can help in environmental protection by adopting organic farming. In this episode, the Madhya Pradesh government is giving grants to the farmers of the state on the purchase of vermicompost units i.e. HDPE beds for organic manure production. The objective of this scheme is to help the farmers at the economic level to manufacture organic manure.
Under the scheme, a 50% subsidy is being given to the farmers of the state on the purchase of HDPE beds. The per unit cost of 96 cubic feet (12*4*2) for HDPE vermi beds has been fixed by the government at Rs 16,000. Accordingly, a maximum grant of Rs 8,000 per unit will be provided to the farmers.
The process of applying started on 16 August 2022. Interested farmers can apply online on the official website of the state government https://mpfsts.mp.gov.in/mphd. All the information related to the scheme can also be found on this website. If you also want to take advantage of this scheme, then apply soon without delay.
