Fertilizers are being used indiscriminately in the fields to get higher yields. This causes great damage to the quality of the soil. Due to this, the yield of crops is decreasing year after year. To solve this problem, the central government is running Paramparagat Krishi Vikas Yojana. The objective of this scheme is to increase the fertility of the soil through traditional farming.
Through this scheme, grants are being given to the farmers to increase the yield and increase income. Under this, financial assistance of 50 thousand rupees is given to the farmers who voluntarily adopt traditional farming in 3 years. Where 31 thousand rupees are sent directly to the beneficiary’s account in the first year so that the farmer can buy organic fertilizers, organic pesticides and best seeds for farming.
Whereas the remaining amount is given in the last 2 years. Which can be used by farmers for processing, packaging and marketing. You can apply online to take advantage of this scheme. For this, go to the official website of the Central Government pgsindia-ncof.gov.in. Other information related to the scheme can also be obtained here.
