As soon as the work started in the field in the morning, a farmer said, ‘Brother, those pensions are on paper, they don’t come in our lives!’ But now the situation is changing. Farmers have learned to think about their future. The uncertainty of the market is increasing day by day, and there is a light of hope in the midst of it. Marginal farmers have only one question now – ‘Is this scheme for us too?’

The old farmer of the village, who has taken the lead for 40 years, is also thinking – if there is no income when he is old, how will the family run? Here comes an important project of the central government. But will you really get a pension of ₹3,000 per month? How to get ordinary farmers? Who is eligible, how to apply – these questions are circulating from tea shops to markets.
What is this Prime Minister Kisan Mandhan Yojana? (What is PM Kisan Mandhan Yojana)
Prime Minister Kisan Mandhan Yojana was launched on September 12, 2019. Under this scheme, small and marginal farmers will get a monthly pension of ₹3,000 per month if they reach the age of 60. However, to get this benefit, you have to stay within the specified age limit and deposit a certain amount in the month. Only those between the ages of 18 and 40, and owning less than two hectares are eligible for this scheme. But this does not end here—there are many other conditions and benefits in this project, which must be read to the end to know.
How to submit and what benefits will be available (PM Kisan Mandhan Yojana Contribution and Benefits)
₹55 to ₹200 per month should be submitted based on the age at which the farmer joins the scheme. The equivalent amount of this deposit will also be deposited by the government, i.e. double benefit. LIC manages this fund and monthly pension will continue to come into his bank account from the time the farmer reaches the age of 60. If someone dies, his wife or husband will get 50% of that pension—absolutely reliable social security. If someone leaves the scheme in the middle, his deposit will be refunded with interest.
