Mukhyamantri Bagwani Bima Yojana Registration 2026

STEP 2 - Open the dedicated MBBY portal at mbby.hortharyana.gov.in and log in using Phone Number, PPP ID or MFMB ID.
STEP 3 - Select the horticulture crop grown, check the premium amount shown on screen and pay it online through the portal.
STEP 4 - Download the payment receipt and registration slip after payment, and keep it safe for future reference at the time of claim.
Registration Period for MBBY 2026
Season wise crop registration period gets fixed and notified by Horticulture Department from time to time. In past seasons, government has extended the last date for crop registration by a month when farmers faced technical issues or delayed sowing, so it helps to check mbby.hortharyana.gov.in and fasal.haryana.gov.in regularly near the deadline instead of waiting for the original last date.
