In order to increase crop productivity, chemical fertilizers are being used indiscriminately in the fields. Because of this, the lack of organic carbon in the soil is increasing. Apart from this, nutritional deficiencies are also found in these products. Due to these reasons, the central government and state governments are promoting natural farming. By doing natural farming and increasing the fertility of the soil, the environment remains safe.
However, there is always a fear of farmers losing their productivity due to natural farming. To eliminate this fear of farmers, the central government is running a beneficial scheme. Under this, for the farmers who have decided to do natural farming on their 1.27 lakh hectares of land, the government will provide financial assistance at Rs 12200 per hectare.
In this episode, the Madhya Pradesh government is making many efforts to promote natural farming in the state. Due to these efforts of the government, natural farming is being done on about 17 lakh hectares in the state. Eight lakh farmers are connected through this. Apart from this, the state government is also giving Rs 900 per month for cow rearing, so that maximum farmers can get the benefit.
