Double Benefit for MP Farmers This Month

The next installment of the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana will be released on February 24, 2025. This will be in addition to the Mukhyamantri Kisan Kalyan Yojana installment. Therefore, Madhya Pradesh farmers will receive two installments in the same month.

Who Qualifies for Chief Minister Kisan Kalyan Yojana?

Farmers registered under the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana automatically qualify for the Chief Minister Kisan Kalyan Yojana. The state government releases Rs 2,000 in three equal installments every four months. The central government also provides Rs 2,000 to farmers under the PM Kisan Yojana three times a year.

Previously, farmers received two installments a year under the Chief Minister Kisan Kalyan Yojana. However, in August 2023, Shivraj Singh Chauhan’s cabinet approved three installments per year. This change increased the annual benefit to Rs 12,000.

Purpose of the Scheme

Chief Minister Kisan Kalyan Yojana aims to make farming more profitable and increase farmer's income. The scheme also encourages the use of advanced farming technology and empowers farmers to be self-reliant. Since its launch in September 2022, a total of 11 installments have been transferred to farmers under this scheme.
