PM KUSUM-B Scheme Opens for Solar Pumps in Mysuru
The PM KUSUM-B scheme is now open for farmers in Mysuru.
This scheme helps farmers get solar-powered water pumps for their farms.
The government gives a big discount of 80% on the cost of these pumps.
Farmers only need to pay 20% of the cost.
The scheme aims to help farmers use solar energy for watering their crops during the day.
This will reduce the need for regular electricity and make farming more self-reliant.
Farmers can apply online and must be careful not to share their secret codes with anyone.
The scheme will close in December, so farmers are encouraged to apply soon.

Farmers receive up to 80% subsidy (50% state, 30% central, 20% farmer).
Scheme aims to reduce dependency on conventional power and promote renewable energy in agriculture.
Farmers must register online at www.souramitra.com and follow official notifications on www.kreld.karnataka.gov.in.
