Need for Kisan Mitra Yojana 2024

Due to the Coronavirus pandemic, farmers especially small and marginal ones have suffered a lot. Despite being provided assistance under PM Kisan Samman Nidhi & other farmer welfare schemes, there is a need to provide them with assistance. So to provide some more assistance to small & marginal farmers (with land holdings upto 2 acres), the state govt. of Haryana will start Kisan Mitra Yojana. The Kisan Mitras will act as farmer’s friends and will assist them in getting benefits of several welfare schemes for which these farmers are eligible.

There are around 36 lakh milk producing dairy cattle in Haryana and per capital milk productivity is 1,087 grams. Haryana state is second in the milk production just after Punjab. In the Kisan Mitra Yojana, govt. officials, progressive farmers, volunteers will give advice to small and marginal farmers on how to raise their income. There would be 1 Kisan Mitra on every 100 farmers which means that on 17 lakh farmers in Haryana, there would be 17,000 Kisan Mitras.

CM Manohar Lal Khattar had already dissolved kisan clubs formed before 1 April 2017 in the state. Only those club which have been formed in the past 3 years with proper election would sustain. Kisan clubs have the responsibility to disseminate information of state govt. welfare schemes directly to the farmers. Accordingly, the Kisan clubs formed after 1 April 2017 and new ones which would be formed will serve the purpose.

Haryana Pashudhan Credit Card Yojana

Under the Pashudhan Credit Card Yojana, the animal keeper will get assistance upto Rs. 3 lakh in the form of loan. The assistance amount would be provided for rearing buffalo, cow, sheep, goat, pig, chicken, broiler animals among others.

No Case of FMD in Haryana in Last 1 Year

Foot & Mouth Disease (FMD) & HS combined vaccine programme (pilot project) for cow, buffalo in Haryana has been successful in PM Modi Common Livestock Diseases Control Scheme [FMD & Brucellosis]. In the past 1 year, no case of foot and mouth disease has been reported in the state. Now the state will receive an additional grant of Rs. 15 crore for this programme.

3.68 Lakh Cattle Tagged In Haryana

Around 4.5 lakh animals have been kept in the Haryana state’s gaushalas of which 3.68 lakh have been tagged. In the state, around 16 lakh families have productive cattle who have been tagged. Around 8,400 animals have been sent to various Gaushalas during Covid-19. Every animal in the Haryana state should be tagged, whether it is from a Gaushala or of an individual animal keeper.

To provide tagging information online, work on website has almost been completed. Apart from the Gaushalas, separate Nandishalas are also being constructed. For this purpose, the model of Nandishals built at a low-cost in Banawali and Matana villages of Fatehabad district will be adopted. On the construction of one nandishala, around Rs. 15 lakh have been spent and Haryana Livestock Development Board have done this work.

Haryana govt. will formulate schemes to increase the income of small farmers from animal husbandry and other agri related sectors. Geographically, Haryana is the most suitable place to meet the daily needs of about 5 crore population in and around Delhi. The daily needs includes fruits, flowers, vegetables, milk, eggs, meat among other. The farmers of Haryana should capture this market and move forward in this direction. The main objective is to realize the PM Narendra Modi’s vision of doubling farmer’s income by 2022.
