48 minutes ago

Bihar's agriculture department will give 3,173 sugarcane farmers permits to buy 44 types of farm machinery at 40-50% subsidy, including 117 in Muzaffarpur.

Bihar's agriculture department has decided to give financial assistance to sugarcane growers for the purchase of farm machinery. The subsidy will cover the cost of sugarcane cultivation equipment, and the department has directed officials to select eligible farmers in the state's sugarcane-producing districts.

A total of 3,173 farmers will receive permits to buy the equipment. The permits will be issued for 44 types of agricultural machines, with a subsidy of 40 to 50 percent on each purchase.

The department has also issued a set of guidelines covering eligibility and qualification for the aid. Under these rules, farmers must buy the sugarcane machinery within 30 days of their permit being issued.

The subsidy amount will be transferred directly into the farmers' bank accounts. Payment will be released only after the equipment is purchased and the buyer completes the required online process, including submission of the purchase receipt.

The Joint Director of Agriculture for the Tirhut division said all four districts of Tirhut, including Muzaffarpur, have been included in the scheme. In Muzaffarpur district, 117 farmers are set to benefit.
