  • Cabinet approves the same

Haryana Cabinet which met under the Chairmanship of Chief Minister, Sh. Nayab Singh Saini here today approved to give a Bonus on Kharif crops in Haryana. With this decision, farmers will receive Rs. 2000 per acre one time bonus for all Kharif and Horticulture crops.

The farmers and other Kisan Organizations of the State were raising issues of high input costs due to adverse weather conditions this year for Kharif Crops. This year, heat waves/stress caused more water consumption and other crop-maintaining inputs. Further, it has also been observed that there is a deficit in rain by 40 percent, which increases the input cost.

The increased input cost is, in part, directly related to extreme weather events during critical growth phases of crop development. Pests and diseases can also cause significant crop damage, which is indirectly related to climate conditions. Pest and disease occurrences often coincide with extreme weather events and anomalous weather conditions. To protect crops against these effects, farmers’ input costs are higher this Kharif season. Therefore, accepting the demand of the state’s farmers, the government has decided to give bonuses for Kharif Crops.

Rs. 2000 per acre approved for all crops grown including horticulture crops

The Cabinet has approved the one time bonus of Rs. 2000 per acre independent of crops grown, the financial implication is around Rs. 1300 crore. First release of the bonus will be paid by August 15, 2024 to all farmers of all crops registered on Meri Fasal Mera Byora (MFMB), who have or will register by August 14, 2024. As the MFMB registrations progress the new farmers will also receive bonus.
