Government Schemes for Farmers

A plain-language directory of the schemes worth knowing — what each one gives you, and a direct link to the official portal. No middlemen, no forms to buy.

Central schemes

Available in every state

These are national schemes run by the Government of India. If you hold cultivable land, most of these apply to you regardless of which state you farm in.

Pick a state above to see its state-run schemes alongside the central ones.

State schemes

Before you apply
Scheme names, amounts, and application windows change every year, and some benefits are switched on and off by state governments each season. Always confirm current terms on the official portal linked here, or ask at your nearest Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK) or block agriculture office. TheAgriGrid is an independent publication — we are not a government body, we don't process applications, and we never charge for this information. If anyone asks you to pay to "register" for a central scheme, it's a red flag.
