Krishi Yantra Yojana 2026-27: Cash Subsidy on Agricultural Equipment

Rajasthan government has launched Krishi Yantra Yojana 2026-27 for farmers under the Agriculture Department. Eligible individuals can get up to 50% cash subsidy on the purchase of modern farming equipment through the RAJ-KISAN portal. Rajasthan Budget 2026-27 has allocated funds for agriculture, and this scheme is part of that push to help farmers adopt better tools. The government has added new machine categories to the list this year, including multi-crop threshers and ridge furrow planters.

The application deadline for FY 2026-27 was July 15, 2026. Farmers can still apply for future financial rounds, so it is good to stay ready with the required documents. The scheme continues to help small, marginal, and women farmers reduce the cost of buying agricultural machinery through direct cash subsidy.

Benefits

This scheme helps farmers save a big amount when buying farming equipment. The subsidy is given based on the farmer category and the type of machine. Below is the updated subsidy structure for the main equipment types covered for FY 2026-27.

The subsidy amount depends on the Brake Horse Power (BHP) of the equipment. SC/ST, small, marginal, and women farmers receive 50% subsidy, while general farmers get 40%. Additional support is also available under the Sub Mission on Agricultural Mechanization (SMAM) and NFSM (Wheat and Pulses) guidelines.

Eligibility

Any farmer who meets the basic conditions can apply. Here are the rules:

Applicant must own agricultural land in their own name. If you belong to an undivided family, your name must appear in the revenue records. For tractor-operated tools, you should have a tractor registered in your name. You should not have received a subsidy for the same type of equipment in the last three years. You can claim subsidy for a maximum of 3 different types of implements in a single financial year.

For tractor-driven tools, a tractor registered in the farmer name is required. The scheme is made for individual farmers who own land and need equipment support to improve their farming output.

Documents Required

Here is the list of papers you need to have ready before applying:

Farmers need to submit the following documents: Aadhaar Card or Jan Aadhaar Card, Caste certificate if applicable, Copy of tractor registration certificate (needed for tractor-driven equipment), and Land ownership proof (Jamabandi copy not older than six months).

• Aadhaar Card or Jan Aadhaar Card - This is the main identity document for verification during the application process.
