Farm Mechanization Subsidy Scheme (Tripura)

Why it matters

Subsidises tractors, power tillers, pump sets and other farm machinery so small Tripura farmers can mechanise and cut labour costs.

What you get

The Department of Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare runs an ongoing farm mechanization subsidy programme that distributes subsidised agricultural machinery — power tillers, mini tractors, pump sets, sprayers, threshers and similar equipment — to farmers and farmer groups across the state. The state's annual agriculture plan has targeted distribution of over 14,000 machinery units in a single year through this subsidy route, prioritising small and marginal farmers and hill-area cultivators who otherwise rely entirely on manual labour. Subsidy levels are set each year by the department and are typically higher for small/marginal and tribal farmers.
