The government is taking major steps to improve the lives of farmers, and one of these is promoting the cultivation of fruits and vegetables throughout the year. The introduction of polyhouse and shade net farming is revolutionizing the way that crops are grown, especially during off-seasons. This farming method helps the farmers in growing crops regardless of the weather, allowing them to sell their produce when the market demand is high. In Bihar, the government is offering a subsidy of 50% under the High-Tech Horticulture Scheme to help farmers set up polyhouses and shade nets. Let’s look at how this scheme works and how the farmers can benefit.
Under the High-Tech Horticulture Scheme, farmers in Bihar can get a subsidy of 50% to set up polyhouses and shade nets. This subsidy is aimed at helping the farmers in growing the crops in a controlled environment, ensuring higher yields, better profits, and reduced risks due to unpredictable weather and pests.
This subsidy is available to farmers who want to use these structures for farming vegetables, fruits, and flowers.
Using polyhouses and shade nets offers many advantages for farmers:
Farmers in Bihar who wish to set up a polyhouse or shade net can apply for the subsidy online. Here’s how:
The subsidy is available for farmers living in Bihar. Farmers from all districts of the state can apply for the shade net component, while the polyhouse component is available only in specific districts, including Gaya, Jehanabad, Khagaria, Lakhisarai, Patna, Purnia, and Samastipur.
If you are interested in applying for this subsidy, more details can be found on the official website of the Directorate of Horticulture, Agriculture Department, Bihar. You can also contact the Assistant Director of Horticulture in your district for more help.
By taking advantage of this scheme, farmers can protect their crops, increase their income, and improve the overall productivity of their farms.
