Haryana Mung Bean Subsidy Scheme 2025: Get ₹4,000 Per Acre Now

In India, oilseed and pulse crops hold a special place. Among pulse crops, Mung bean (मूंग) holds a main position. Farmers in India are now cultivating Mung bean in all three seasons: Rabi, Kharif, and Zaid. There’s good news for farmers cultivating Mung bean. In Haryana, the government is providing a subsidy of ₹4,000 per acre to encourage Mung bean cultivation.

Haryana government states that this will encourage farmers to shift towards Mung bean cultivation and reduce their inclination towards paddy cultivation. In Haryana, the government is continuously working to reduce paddy cultivation and promote the cultivation of other crops to conserve water. Paddy cultivation requires the most irrigation, and farmers do not get adequate irrigation facilities due to lack of rain or untimely rain, which prevents them from getting reasonable profits from paddy cultivation. In this sequence, Haryana government has started the subsidy scheme for the farmers of the state. Under these schemes, the government will provide ₹4,000 as a subsidy to farmers for cultivating crops that require less water instead of paddy.

Mung Bean Cultivation: Beneficial for Soil Fertility

Mung bean is a pulse crop. Mung bean crop takes about 60 to 70 days to mature. Farmers get double the benefit from Mung bean cultivation. According to agricultural experts, Mung bean plant takes nitrogen from the atmosphere and stores it in its roots; therefore, sowing Mung bean increases the amount of nitrogen in the soil. In Mung bean cultivation, farmers harvest the plants, while the roots remain in the soil, increasing the amount of nitrogen in the soil. Farmers can increase the fertility of the soil by sowing Mung bean.

After harvesting Mung bean, farmers can make green manure by mixing the remaining residues in the soil. Green manure made from its residues will increase the yield of the next crop. According to agricultural experts, the use of urea in the crop sown after Mung bean is reduced, so farmers must sow Mung bean in empty fields. Green manure made from Mung bean helps in increasing the yield of paddy. By cultivating Mung bean, farmers can increase the fertility of the soil along with obtaining yield.
