Deadline extended till January 17
To give the benefit of the Agricultural Mechanization Scheme, the Agriculture Department has now extended its deadline. Under the scheme, earlier one could apply to get the equipment till 31st December. Now it has been increased to 17 January. Farmers can apply online till January 17. Machines will be made available to the general category at 40 to 50 percent subsidy, SC-ST at 80 percent subsidy. Up to 10 percent additional subsidy will be given at the departmental level on purchase of equipment from local equipment manufacturers.

Farmers can buy these machines
For crop management, farmers can buy rotary mulcher, super seeder, happy seeder, reaper cum binder and other equipment. There is a crisis of laborers in agriculture. Due to non-availability of laborers on time, neither the crop can be sown nor harvested. In view of this, arrangements have been made to give 9 types of instruments to the farmers. Important equipment like paddy transplanter, padder drum seeder, seed drill are also available on subsidy. In the use of this machine the need of labor is less. At the same time, you can buy mini rice mill, straw feeder and other equipment for harvesting the finished produce. Apart from this, thresher, chap cutter, paddy thresher, irrigation pipe, cultivator and a total of 90 types of equipment used in agriculture are being given to farmers on subsidy.

Equipment will have to be taken in 7 days

Earlier there was a time of 15 days after the issue of permit i.e. in 15 days the farmer could buy the machine. But the new deadline has increased. In this, the permit time has been reduced to 7 days. The farmer will have to buy the machine within 7 days of the issue of the permit.
