Maharashtra Launches 7th Instalment of Namo Shetkari Mahasanman Kisan Yojana to Support Farmers

Maharashtra’s government has recently launched the Namo Shetkari Yojana seventh instalment, aiming to give important financial support to farmers across the state. This scheme, along with the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana, makes sure eligible farmers receive a total yearly assistance of Rs 12,000. If you are a farmer in Maharashtra, knowing the eligibility, benefits, and how to claim this help can assist you in securing your financial stability during tough times.

The scheme is for farmers in Maharashtra who meet certain eligibility rules set by the state government. Usually, farmers registered under the state’s agricultural database and those who also get benefits from the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana qualify for this scheme. This combined coverage makes sure eligible farmers get financial help to manage farming costs and support their livelihoods.

Financial Benefits and Instalment Details

Under the Namo Shetkari Mahasanman Kisan Yojana, farmers get Rs 6,000 yearly as financial help. When added to the Rs 6,000 from the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana, the total yearly support comes to Rs 12,000 per farmer.

The seventh instalment, launched recently, covers the subsidy period from April 2025 to July 2025. This instalment alone is Rs 1892.61 crore, helping 91,65,156 farmers across Maharashtra.

So far, six instalments have been given out, distributing a total of Rs 11,130 crore to about 93 lakh farmers. This steady financial support plays a key role in helping farmers cover production costs and keep farming sustainable.

How the Scheme Supports Farmers After Crop Damage

Heavy rainfall in Maharashtra has caused major crop damage, affecting farmers’ incomes. The Namo Shetkari Yojana gives timely financial relief to farmers hit by such natural disasters. By sending money directly to them, the scheme helps farmers recover from losses and continue farming without heavy financial pressure.

Steps to Receive the 7th Instalment of Namo Shetkari Yojana

If you are an eligible farmer, make sure your bank account details and Aadhaar information are updated in the state’s agricultural database. The government sends the subsidy amount directly to the registered bank accounts, so keeping your details correct is very important.

You can check your eligibility and instalment status through the official Maharashtra government agriculture portal or by visiting your local agricultural office. Staying updated about deadlines and documents will help you get the financial help smoothly.

Impact of Namo Shetkari Yojana on Maharashtra’s Rural Economy

This scheme greatly strengthens Maharashtra’s rural economy by raising farmers’ income and helping them cover production costs. Agriculture Minister Dattatray Bharne said the scheme not only supports farmers financially but also encourages sustainable farming methods.

By putting financial resources directly into farmers’ hands, the scheme boosts rural buying power, supports local markets, and helps overall economic growth in rural areas.
