Farmers in Madhya Pradesh can receive financial assistance from both the central and state governments through two separate welfare schemes. Under the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana, eligible farmers receive ₹6,000 annually from the central government. The Madhya Pradesh government provides an additional ₹6,000 each year through the Mukhyamantri Kisan Kalyan Yojana.
Together, these programmes offer eligible farmers a total of ₹12,000 in annual financial assistance. The money can help them manage agricultural expenses, including the purchase of seeds, fertilisers and other essential farming inputs.
PM Kisan Yojana: ₹6,000 from the Central Government
The Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN) scheme provides ₹6,000 per year to eligible farmers. The amount is paid in three instalments, with ₹2,000 transferred directly to the beneficiary’s bank account in each instalment.
These payments are made through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT), allowing eligible farmers to receive financial assistance directly into their accounts.
Mukhyamantri Kisan Kalyan Yojana: Additional ₹6,000
The Madhya Pradesh government runs the Mukhyamantri Kisan Kalyan Yojana to provide additional financial support to eligible farmers in the state. Under this programme, beneficiaries receive ₹6,000 annually from the state government.
This assistance is provided separately from the amount received under the central PM Kisan scheme.
How Farmers Can Receive ₹12,000 a Year
Farmers who qualify for both schemes can receive a combined annual benefit of ₹12,000, consisting of ₹6,000 under PM-KISAN and ₹6,000 under the Mukhyamantri Kisan Kalyan Yojana.
More than 81 lakh farmers in Madhya Pradesh have benefited from the state-run Mukhyamantri Kisan Kalyan Yojana, according to the information provided in the source article.
Important Documents and e-KYC Requirements
Farmers who want to receive benefits should keep their Aadhaar details, bank account information and other required documents ready. They should also complete the mandatory e-KYC process and fulfil the applicable requirements under the PM Kisan scheme.
Ensuring that the necessary formalities are completed can help eligible beneficiaries maintain access to the scheme’s payments.
