Uttar Pradesh government has launched Mukhyamantri Krishak Samriddhi Yojana, and registration is open on the new portal mksyldb.in. Small and marginal farmers can get a long-term loan of up to ₹6 lakh at 6% yearly interest. CM Yogi Adityanath started the scheme and the portal on 23 September 2026 in Lucknow and handed over loan sanction letters to the first farmers.
Loans come from UP Sahkari Gram Vikas Bank, which used to charge about 11% on these loans. Under the scheme, the state pays 5% of the interest for farmers who repay on time, so they pay only 6%. Farmers can apply online at home or at any of the bank's 323 branches.

How to apply online at mksyldb.in
You first register as a farmer on the portal, then log in and fill the loan form.
STEP 1 - Open mksyldb.in and click 'कृषक पंजीकरण करें' (farmer registration) at the top, or the 'ऋण आवेदन करें' button lower on the homepage.
STEP 2 - Select your district, bank branch, tehsil and block from the drop-down lists.
STEP 3 - The portal asks whether your total farmland is less than 2 hectares (about 5 acres). Pick Yes or No, as your form moves forward based on this answer.

STEP 4 - Fill in your gram panchayat, village, the loan amount you need and your full address. Enter your mobile number and type in the OTP sent to it.
STEP 5 - Set a password and finish registration. Then use 'Krishak Login' to sign in, choose the loan scheme and fill the application form.
STEP 6 - The Gram Vikas Bank branch checks your documents and approves the loan. The approved amount goes to your bank account. You can check your application status by logging in to the same portal.
If you would rather apply offline, go to your nearest UP Sahkari Gram Vikas Bank branch. Ask for the loan application form, fill it in and hand it over with your land papers and other documents.
Who can apply
Only small and marginal farmers of the state are eligible. The conditions are:
- You must be a resident of Uttar Pradesh.
- Your total farmland should be less than 2 hectares, which puts you in the small or marginal farmer group.
- You need valid khasra or khatauni papers for the farmland in your own name.
- You should not have defaulted on any earlier bank loan.
Documents required
Keep these ready before you register or visit the branch:
- Aadhaar card of the applicant
- Khasra, khatauni or kisan bahi for the current crop year
- Ration card or residence certificate
- Copy of the bank passbook with the IFSC code clearly visible
- Two recent passport size photos
- KYC form and loan application form (available at the bank branch)
- Documents of two local witnesses for identity
What the loan can be used for
You can use the loan for minor irrigation, SRTO, farm machinery such as a tractor, boring, a solar pump, or beekeeping. Dairy, animal husbandry, horticulture, poultry, fish farming and rural housing are covered too. Some non-farm income and self-employment schemes run with NBCFDC and NSFDC also qualify, and there is an education loan for children of rural families.
The loan is long term, with repayment spread over 5 years or more. Remember that you only get the 5% interest subsidy if every installment is paid on time. Farmers already repaying Gram Vikas Bank loans on time also get the lower rate.
EMI calculator on the portal
Scroll to 'अपनी किस्त अभी जानें' on the mksyldb.in homepage and enter the loan amount, interest rate and number of years. For example, a ₹5 lakh loan at 6% over 10 years works out to about ₹5,551 a month, or ₹6.66 lakh in total. Your actual installment is fixed only after the loan is approved.
