The central government continuously launches various schemes to increase farmers' income and make them self-reliant. One such initiative is the PM Kisan FPO Scheme, designed for farmers who wish to expand their agricultural businesses. Under this scheme, a group of 11 farmers can receive financial assistance of ₹15 lakh to enhance their farming operations.
More than half of India's population depends on agriculture, yet farmers face numerous challenges such as unpredictable weather, water scarcity, seed quality issues, and soil degradation. Additionally, financial constraints often hinder their growth. To address these challenges, the central government introduced this scheme to help farmers increase their income and advance in the agricultural sector collectively.
How to Avail the Benefits of This Scheme?
To benefit from this scheme, farmers need to form a Farmer Producer Organization (FPO), which must include at least 11 farmers. After forming the group, they can apply through the official National Agricultural Market (eNAM) website at https://www.enam.gov.in/web/.
For more details and assistance with the application process, farmers can contact their nearest agriculture department office or relevant government agencies.
This scheme provides an excellent opportunity for farmers to work collectively and strengthen their financial position. By utilizing this initiative effectively, farmers can not only increase their income but also explore new opportunities in the agricultural business.
