Importance of farmers' respect fund

Under the recently announced "Prime Minister Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana", every marginal and poor farmer has been given Rs. 6000 per annum. Has been told to pay the money. Many of the opposition political parties have criticized this move of the government saying that given such a small amount is a humiliating one for the farmers.

It is known that the UPA Government has fixed the same amount of subsidy in the National Food Security Act. If we talk about the poverty line set by the Tendulkar committee in 2011, then there were some similar comments on it.





To deal with the fears of opposition parties, the monthly expenditure data of the beneficiaries of the PM-Kisan scheme should be looked at. It will be the direct evidence that in reality, the Prime Minister's Kisan Adhikar Nidhi will also improve some of their living standards or not?

The truth can be ascertained based on the figures of economic survey of four states like Odisha, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, and Maharashtra.

During the year 2017-18 in Odisha, the monthly expenditure of any household in rural areas was found between four to five thousand rupees. Rs 500 for these families The contribution amount per month can bear 10-12% of their expenditure.

Monthly expenditure of rural households in other states was found to be more than that of Odisha. Even then, the monthly expenditure for 30% of the families with the lowest economic status of all four states is only 5.5%.

The importance of cash transshipment can also be understood by taking the example of schemes like the National Food Security Act and MNREGA. In MNREGA, there is a provision of pay for work instead. There is no guarantee of work under the scheme

According to the retail price of wheat and rice, the subsidy found in 2017-18 under food security is Rs 440. Every month, every family settles. The monthly income to MNREGA is Rs 496 in Uttar Pradesh. So in Maharashtra Rs 814 Assessed. The 30% of the poorest of the four states get an average 18.6% per family of assistance from these three schemes. At the bottom, this aid can be said from 25% to 37.6% for 10% of the poor.

In this article, the mathematics of the aid amount has been combined with three major schemes. Apart from this, if the rural housing scheme, rural electrification, Ujjwala scheme, crop insurance, free education, Ayushman India, etc should be added, then the subsidy amount of the PM-Kisan Yojana can be said to be relieved with the subsidy through them. is. State Governments also make some transcripts on their behalf.

The respected fund for the lowest 30% in poor farmers is obviously profitable. If the Rath Yatra scheme of the Telangana government is limited to small and marginal farmers, then it will be able to get more benefit from the poor.


If the condition of poor villagers is unsatisfactory even after the honor fund, then their income is low due to their income. For this, economic development will be done in such a way that the poor can get jobs.
