PM DHAN DHAANYA KRISHI YOJANA

The PM Dhan-Dhaanya Krishi Yojana (2025) aims to transform 100 low-performing agri-districts through convergence of 36 existing schemes across 11 ministries, backed by an annual outlay of ₹24,000 crore for six years. The scheme focuses on improving productivity, crop diversification, irrigation, post-harvest infrastructure, and credit access while integrating allied sectors like horticulture, fisheries, and animal husbandry. Implementation is driven by district-level planning, three-tier governance, NITI Aayog’s technical support, and a digital dashboard with 117 KPIs. Targeted to benefit 1.7 crore farmers, PMDDKY seeks to create resilient, sustainable, and market-oriented agricultural ecosystems aligned with Atmanirbhar Bharat.
