What is the POCRA Scheme and What Does Phase-II Include?
The aim of the Pradhan Mantri Oilseed and Oil Palm Development Scheme is to promote oilseed and oil crop production and help the agriculture sector become self-reliant. This will help meet household oil needs and increase farmers’ income.
In the second phase of the scheme, the government has signed a financial agreement with the World Bank and included more new villages in Maharashtra. This expansion will benefit more farmers and ensure an increase in agricultural output.
In the newly added villages, more agricultural development programs will be implemented, and necessary resources for POCRA farming will be provided.
