Many farmers earn a good amount of money by cultivating traditional crops as well as by cultivating flowers. In this connection, farmers can also earn a good amount from the cultivation of Tulip flowers. Seeing the good prices these flowers get in the market, the government is also promoting the cultivation of these flowers. Bihar government is giving a huge subsidy of 50% to the farmers of its state for the cultivation of Tulip flowers.

The state government of Bihar provides a 50% subsidy to the farmers cultivating Tulip flowers through the “Integrated Horticulture Development Mission Scheme”. The government has fixed the cost of cultivation of these flowers per hectare at Rs 15 lakh. In such a situation, according to the 50% subsidy, the government will give a total subsidy of Rs 7 lakh 50 thousand to the farmers. If you are also a farmer in Bihar and want to take advantage of this scheme, then visit the official website horticulture.bihar.gov.in and apply.

Farmers get good yields through their hard work, but many times due to lack of proper storage, most of the farmers have to bear heavy losses. Many farmers are forced to sell their produce at low prices to avoid this loss. On the other hand, with the help of cold storage, farmers are able to keep their produce safe for a long time.

However, not every farmer is financially capable of opening cold storage. To solve this problem of the farmers, the Bihar government is giving subsidies ranging from 50 to 75% on the installation of cold storage in the village through the Integrated Horticulture Development Mission Scheme.

If you also want to start cold storage under this scheme, then you will need Aadhaar card, PAN card and land documents. With these documents, you can apply on the official website of the Agriculture Department of the state. If you want, you can go to the Horticulture Department of your district for more information about this scheme.
