Haryana Govt Encourages Horticultural Crop Cultivation With Subsidies
The government of Haryana wants more farmers to grow fruits, vegetables, flowers, and spices.
To help them, the government is giving money, called a subsidy, to farmers.
This money can be used to start new fruit gardens or grow different kinds of vegetables and spices.
There are different amounts of money for growing different plants.
For example, starting a new fruit orchard gets more money than growing flowers.
The money is sent directly to the farmer's bank account.
Farmers can get help for up to 5 acres of land.
To get this help, farmers need to sign up on special government websites and have important papers ready.
Haryana government is launching a scheme to incentivize farmers to cultivate horticultural crops.
The initiative covers fruits, vegetables, flowers, spices, and aromatic plants.
Subsidies range from ₹8,000 to ₹1,40,000 per acre depending on the crop and farmer category.
Maximum subsidy assistance is capped at 5 acres per farmer.
Interested farmers can register on the Meri Fasal-Mera Byora and Hortnet portals with necessary personal and bank details.
