Government Aid in Procuring Agricultural Equipment Embracing modern land and agricultural technology has become imperative for farmers. However, agricultural machinery often comes with a hefty price tag, rendering it unattainable for many farmers. In response to this challenge, the Bihar government has opted to offer subsidies for the acquisition of agricultural machinery.

Custom Hiring Centers A Feasible Alternative:

Custom Hiring Centers present a favorable option, enabling farmers to access subsidies for agricultural machinery. Through these centers, farmers can lease machinery instead of purchasing it outright. This presents a cost-effective solution for farmers lacking the necessary funds to buy their own equipment.

Government Initiatives Support for Farmers:

Under a scheme launched by the Bihar government, subsidies are accessible to farmers for procuring agricultural machinery. The goal is to establish Custom Hiring Centers and extend subsidies for agricultural machinery. This initiative marks a significant stride in fortifying and streamlining farming for farmers.

Subsidies for Agricultural Machinery:

As part of this scheme, the state government has committed to providing subsidies for 106 types of agricultural machinery this year. These encompass machinery for sowing, planting, harvesting, cutting, and various other equipment types.
