I often hear about schemes for young or new farmers, but are there any specific programs that support experienced farmers looking to upgrade or diversify?
Mid-career farmers can benefit from several government schemes like:
PM-Kisan: Direct income support of ₹6,000/year.
PM FME Scheme: Helps set up food processing units.
Agriculture Infrastructure Fund: Low-interest loans for storage, cold chains, etc.
Sub-Mission on Agricultural Mechanization (SMAM): Subsidies on modern farming equipment.
NABARD Schemes: Credit and support for agri-based businesses.
e-NAM: Access to better markets and pricing online.
These can support modern farming, diversification, and better income.
