Karnataka Raitha Shakti Scheme – The Department of Agriculture is providing additional amenities to farmers, and the “Raita Shakti Yojana” will be started shortly to ease their load. The Karnataka Raitha Shakti Scheme was introduced by Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai. The plan will give farmers an incentive to use their farm machines, which will lead to a rise in output. In this scheme, beneficiaries will get subsidized diesel for farmers. Beneficiaries will get their benefits via the debt system. This article will explain what this Raitha Shakti Scheme is, why it was created, and how many advantages the government will provide under this programme.
Karnataka Raitha Shakti Scheme 2024
In the state budget for 2024–2024, Karnataka’s chief minister announced a new program called Karnataka Raitha Shakti. This scheme is providing discounted diesel to farmers for the sole purpose of reducing the burden of costly disease on the farmer. As you all know, diesel-powered machines are very important in farming, and farmers can’t do their jobs without them. Because the fuel price has risen significantly, this is a great time for the State Government to start this scheme, which will only help farmers in the state. The government has found a nice sum of around 500 crore rupees to pay for the full implementation and execution of this plan from beginning to end. There is no such scheme in the state for farmers. This plan encourages farmers to use modern technologies to make their farms more productive and save money on fuel.
All of the programs that the Agriculture Department has developed for the farmers of the state are now being carried out via the Kisan software, which is accessed through the FRUITS portaland uses the registration ID number. All of the farmers in the state who are enrolled on the FRUITS site would be eligible to participate in the Raitha Shakti Yojana, which will be carried out in a similar manner through Direct Transfer (DBT) utilizing Kisan software.
CM also suggested a number of ways to improve the infrastructure after harvesting and encouraged adding value to farm products. Common centers for farm produce organizations are good places to start with post-harvest management, marketing, and exporting agricultural products by making a program that costs Rs 50 crores.
