Farmers in Madhya Pradesh are receiving double the financial assistance compared to many other states under a special state scheme. While the PM Kisan Samman nidhi Yojana gives ₹6,000 annually, eligible farmers in mp get ₹12,000 a year. Here’s everything you need to know.
1. The Central Scheme: PM Kisan Samman nidhi Yojana
The PM Kisan Samman nidhi Yojana is a central government initiative that provides:
₹6,000 annually to farmers in three installments
Financial support to improve agricultural productivity and livelihoods
Basic assistance to farmers with limited income
This forms the first half of the ₹12,000 benefit for mp farmers.
2. The State Scheme: cm Kisan kalyan Yojana
The madhya pradesh government runs the CM Kisan kalyan Yojana, providing additional support to farmers already enrolled in PM Kisan. Features include:
Extra ₹6,000 annually, split into three installments of ₹2,000 each
Payment is linked with PM Kisan installments for convenience
Helps farmers cover agricultural and household expenses
Combined with PM Kisan, this brings the total benefit to ₹12,000 per year, double what most farmers get in other states.
3. Who Is Eligible?
Not all farmers in mp get this benefit. To qualify, the farmer must:
Be a permanent resident of Madhya Pradesh
Be registered under PM Kisan Samman nidhi Yojana
Own agricultural land and be actively farming it
These conditions ensure that the scheme reaches genuine farmers in need.
4. Who Is Not Eligible?
Certain categories of people are excluded from the scheme:
Farmers who pay income tax
Current or former MLAs, MPs, Mayors, or panchayat Chairpersons
Government employees (central or state) and retired employees
Pensioners with a monthly pension exceeding ₹10,000
Exceptions: Multi Tasking Staff, Class-4, and Group D employees are eligible despite being government employees.
5. How the Payment Works
Farmers receive the amount in two linked components:
₹6,000 from PM Kisan Samman nidhi Yojana
₹6,000 from cm Kisan kalyan Yojana
Both payments are deposited directly into the farmer’s bank account in three installments of ₹2,000 each, making it convenient and timely.
6. Why This Matters
With rising agricultural costs and uncertainties, this additional support helps farmers:
Meet daily farming expenses
Manage medical, education, and household costs
Reduce financial stress and improve livelihoods
By combining central and state support, mp is giving its farmers a stronger financial safety net.
Final Word
The cm Kisan kalyan Yojana, in conjunction with PM Kisan Samman nidhi Yojana, ensures that eligible madhya pradesh farmers receive ₹12,000 annually. By checking eligibility criteria carefully, farmers can make sure they benefit fully from these schemes and improve their financial stability..jpg)
