The Indian Government has come out with an improved version of PM Kisan Tractor Yojana 2025, which promises to give financial assistance to the farmers in buying tractors. The program is a part of the larger PM-KISAN scheme and its main aim is to increase the productivity of farms by hiving off the price of modern equipment. However, the practitioners of farming will have first preference, but the condition is that the wage earners must own agricultural land and apply for it through the proper channel.
What Is PM Kisan Tractor Yojana?
PM Kisan Tractor Yojana is a government scheme that provides a subsidy of up to 50% or a financial assistance of up to ₹1.5 lakh for the purchase of a new tractor. The scheme is a joint effort of the central and state governments and has a target group of small and marginal farmers who fulfill the eligibility requirements.
Who Can Apply?
The beneficiary to be eligible for application must:
- Be an Indian citizen
- Possess agricultural land
- Not have received a tractor subsidy within the last 7 years
- Be a registered member of the PM-KISAN scheme
Salaried employees owning agricultural land and registered as farmers can also apply but only if they are engaged in farming practices.
