To apply for the reaper machine subsidy, farmers need to furnish several documents, including Aadhaar card, income certificate, residence certificate, caste certificate, bank account details, passbook copy, PAN card, proof of land ownership, and a registered mobile number linked to Aadhaar.

Application Procedure:

The subsidy amount will be directly deducted from the equipment's price, and the remaining sum will be payable by the farmer. Subsequently, the grant will be transferred to the agricultural equipment manufacturer's account.

For more details and assistance regarding the online application process, farmers can contact their Block Agriculture Officer/Assistant Director (Agricultural Engineering) or District Agriculture Officer.

Aim of the Scheme:

The Agricultural Machinery Subsidy Scheme endeavors to alleviate the financial strain on farmers and encourage the adoption of modern agricultural practices.
