Many times the crops grown by the farmer after working hard have to face damage due to weather and natural calamity. Due to this farmers have to face huge economic losses.
To solve this problem, many schemes are being run for the farmers by the central and state government. Haryana Government is also running a similar scheme and through this scheme, farmers cultivating horticulture crops are compensated for the loss due to bad weather and natural calamities.
This scheme is the “Mukhyamantri Horticulture Insurance Scheme” and a total of 21 vegetables, fruits and spice crops have been covered under it. Under this, an insurance amount of Rs 30,000 will be given on the damage of vegetable and spice crops and Rs 40 thousand on the damage of fruit crops. To take advantage of this, farmers will have to opt for this scheme while registering their crop and area on the “Meri Fasal Mera Byora” portal.
