Due to climate change, many types of changes are taking place in the environment and due to this many types of side effects are being seen. One of these bad effects is the falling down of the groundwater level. Because of this, the water crisis in agriculture is increasing. In view of these crises, several steps are being taken by the government so that the farmers do not face any problems in the irrigation process. In this series, the Rajasthan government has started the Irrigation Pipeline Subsidy Scheme.
Under this scheme, the state government is giving subsidies on irrigation pipelines for tubewell connectivity. First of all, priority will be given to small and marginal farmers in this scheme, as well as general-category farmers can also take advantage of it. A 50% subsidy will be given to the general category farmers, to which a maximum of Rs 15,000 will be given, while a 60% subsidy will be given to small and marginal farmers, to which a maximum of Rs 18,000 will be given. To get the benefit of this scheme, you can get complete information from the office of any nearby agriculture department. One can go to CSC Center or E-Mitra Center for an application.
