PMKSY Subsidy Guide: How to Get Support for Micro Irrigation in India

 

Micro Irrigation

Micro Irrigation Systems, supported under India’s PMKSY "Per Drop More Crop" scheme, are transforming agriculture by improving water efficiency, boosting yields, and reducing costs. Farmers can avail subsidies of 55% for small and marginal farmers and 45% for others, with additional state incentives and access to the ₹5000 crore Micro Irrigation Fund. The technology delivers 80–90% water use efficiency, cuts water use by up to 50%, increases yields by 20–30% (and more for certain crops), reduces fertilizer and energy costs, and improves soil health while controlling weeds and diseases. With over 83 lakh hectares covered since 2015, it’s a proven path to sustainable, profitable farming.
