PM-KISAN

PM-KISAN (Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi) is an Indian government scheme that provides direct income support to small and marginal farmers. Each eligible farmer receives ₹6,000 annually, paid in three installments of ₹2,000 every four months. The goal is to help farmers meet their agricultural needs, reduce their financial burden, and improve their livelihoods. The scheme simplifies benefit delivery by transferring money directly into farmers’ bank accounts, ensuring transparency and minimizing middlemen’s involvement. It aims to support the agricultural community, especially those with limited resources, fostering economic stability and growth in rural areas.
