Farmers’ income is mostly from farming, but farmers earn a lot even by doing animal husbandry and the government also understands this, that’s why the government runs many schemes related to animal husbandry. In this series, the government’s MNREGA cattle shed scheme is also there, which has been started to help the farmers in the field of animal husbandry.
Explain that the MNREGA Animal Shed Scheme being run by the government has actually been started to help the cattle herders to set up sheds for animals on their private land. Under this scheme, government assistance of Rs 75 to 80 thousand will be available for 3 animals. On the other hand, for 4 or more animals, assistance will be given up to Rs 1 lakh 16 thousand. This benefit will be given to the poor and small livestock farmers of the states of Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh etc. To apply in the scheme, visit the website of MNREGA Cattle Shed Scheme or you can also contact the nearest government bank.
