Haryana agriculture minister J P Dalal on Tuesday launched the ‘Chaara-Bijaee Yojana’ scheme, under which a farmer growing fodder and supplying the produce to cowsheds will get a financial assistance of Rs 10,000 per acre. The rationale behind the scheme is to address the State\u2019s fodder shortage and rising stray cattle. The Subsidy will be directly credited to the farmer\u2019s account under Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Under the scheme:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The number of cow shelters in the state increased from 175 in 2017 to 600 in 2022. Most cow shelters remain overcrowded due to an increase in the stray cattle population. Also, the Phosphate-Rich Organic Manure (PROM) prepared from cow dung can be used as an alternative for synthetic fertilisers. The Prom is also prepared from various gaushalas of Pinjore, Hisar and Bhiwani districts of Haryana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Agriculture and farmers\u2019 welfare minister JP Dalal said, \u201cThe money will be transferred to the farmers\u2019 bank account through direct benefit transfer. The state government has been taking a number of steps in the interest of farmers, and the \u2018Chaara-Bijaee Yojana\u2019 is another step in that direction. In April, \u20b913.44 crore was distributed among 569 gaushalas in the state for purchasing fodder.\u201d\u2009<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Haryana agriculture minister J P Dalal on Tuesday launched the ‘Chaara-Bijaee Yojana’ scheme, under which a farmer growing fodder and supplying the produce to cowsheds will get a financial assistance of Rs 10,000 per acre.
