The Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN) scheme was launched by the Government of India in February 2019 to provide crucial financial support to the farming community across the country. Under the scheme, eligible farmers receive direct cash transfers of Rs. 6,000 per year in three instalments, credited directly to their bank accounts. The scheme aims to ensure the socioeconomic security of farmers and reduce their dependence on informal credit.
