PM KISHAN SANMAN NIDHI YOJNA

PM KISHAN SANMAN NIDHI YOJNA

Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi is an initiative by the government of India in which 120 million small and marginal farmers who have less than 2 hectares (4.9 acres) of landholding will get up to ₹6,000 (US$87) per year as minimum income support.

Pradhan  Mantri  KIsan  SAmman  Nidhi  (PM-KISAN)

Objective  With  a  view  to  augment  the  income  of  the  Small  and  Marginal  Farmers  (SMFs),  the Government  has  launched  a  new  Central  Sector  Scheme,  namely,  “Pradhan  Mantri KIsan SAmman  Nidhi  (PM-KISAN)”  in the  current  financial  year.  

The  PM-KISAN  scheme  aims  to  supplement  the  financial  needs  of  the  SMFs  in procuring  various  inputs  to  ensure  proper  crop  health  and  appropriate  yields, commensurate with the  anticipated  farm  income  at  the  end  of  the  each  crop cycle.  

This  would  also  protect  them  from  falling  in  the  clutches  of  moneylenders  for  meeting such  expenses  and  ensure  their  continuance in  the  farming  activities.
