Subsidy on a tractor

Tractor, the true companion of farmers in agricultural work, plays an important role in improving the economic condition of farmers. 

The most commonly used equipment in farming means that a huge subsidy is being provided to the farmers on the purchase of tractors. To avail the benefits of the scheme, farmers should apply quickly.

For your information, let us tell you that this grant is being provided by the Haryana Government for the purchase of a tractor. However, not all farmers will be able to take advantage of the grant. 

This is only for Scheduled Caste farmers. The Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Department is providing a grant of Rs 1 lakh to Scheduled Caste farmers on tractors with a capacity of 45 HP and above. 

For this, farmers can apply online on the departmental portal from 26 February to 11 March. 

Know how the selection will be done

A spokesperson of the Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Department said that the selection of beneficiaries in each district will be done through an online draw by the constituted District Level Executive Committee. 

After selection, the selected farmer will have to choose the tractor model and price based on his preference from the listed approved manufacturers and deposit his share in the approved account through the bank only.

After verification of PMU and Bank, a digital e-voucher will be issued to the accredited distributor. Immediately after receiving the grant e-voucher, the farmer will have to upload the documents like bill, insurance, temporary number receipt of RC application fee, etc. along with his chosen tractor on the departmental portal. 

Physical verification of documents is very important

The District Level Executive Committee will have to submit physical verification of the tractor along with all the necessary documents. The committee after checking all the documents will upload the physical verification report along with the form on the portal and inform the Directorate through email. After investigation at the directorate level, the grant approval will be issued to the farmer through an e-voucher.
