The dependence of Indian agriculture on human power and animal power is moving towards reliance on mechanical energy. The important reason for this is the increasing expenditure on animals and the increasing shortage of human labor. For this reason, it has become mandatory for Indian farmers to use mechanical power. However, the small and marginal landholding farmers can’t purchase agricultural equipment due to their economic weakness. Considering this crisis, the Bihar Government has started the “Bihar Krishi Yantra Subsidy 2024 ”.

Bihar Krishi Yantra Subsidy 2024 Detailed Description:
In Bihar, the land owned by small and marginal land-holding farmers is 80%. To meet the agricultural machinery requirement of such a vast area, the government can’t provide agricultural machinery to every farmer.
Custom Hiring Center: Along with this, the Government of Bihar has envisioned providing agricultural equipment to the farmers by setting up a “Custom Hiring Centre” to improve the hard work of the farmers, punctuality of agricultural works, and productivity of crops.
SMAM: To implement this scheme, the government has established SMAM (The Mission on Agricultural Machinery). Through this, the farmers of the state can set up custom hiring centers.
The main objective of the Bihar Agricultural Machinery Subsidy 2024 Scheme is to establish custom hiring centers for the farmers in the state and to provide subsidies to the farmers for purchasing agricultural equipment.
Subsidy for 108 Agri Machinery: The Bihar government will provide subsidies for 108 agricultural machinery under this Bihar Agricultural Machinery Subsidy 2024. This includes all the agricultural equipment related to sowing, plowing, weeding, weeding, irrigation, harvesting, harrowing, and gardening in the field.
