Excessive use of chemical fertilizers reduces the yield capacity of the soil of the field. That is why the government is encouraging farmers to use vermicompost instead of these fertilizers. The Rajasthan government is going one step further and is also providing subsidy facility to the farmers of the state for setting up a vermicompost unit.
It is worth noting that this initiative of the government will improve the biological and physical condition of the soil of the fields of the state and at the same time the yield capacity of the field will also improve. Apart from this, the environment will also be safe with this initiative.
Let us tell you that subsidy for setting up a vermicompost unit will be given on first come first serve basis. Actually, the state government has set a target of starting 100 permanent vermicompost units. The government will provide a subsidy of 50% (maximum Rs 50,000) to the farmers for setting up the unit. If you also want to take advantage of this scheme, then you must visit Raj Kisan Sathi Portal and complete the online application process.
