Gypsum, scientifically known as calcium sulfate (CaSO₄·2H₂O), is a natural mineral that contains about 16-19% calcium and 13-16% sulfur. It plays a vital role in agriculture by improving alkaline soil, which can be less productive. By applying gypsum, farmers can make their alkaline land more fertile, leading to better crop quality and increased yields, particularly for oilseeds, pulses, and wheat.
In the financial year 2024-25, the Rajasthan government plans to distribute gypsum to 20,000 farmers under the National Food Security Mission. This initiative specifically targets improving pulses and wheat crops in alkaline soils.
Farmers interested in applying for the gypsum subsidy must use the Raj Kisan Sathi - Suvidha app.
By taking advantage of this subsidy, farmers can improve their soil health and enhance their crop production, ensuring better yields and quality. This initiative reflects the government's commitment to supporting agriculture and helping farmers thrive.
