Farmers in India receive subsidies on agricultural equipment based on the machine type and beneficiary category, offering diverse combinations for subsidy options. These subsidies are granted under the Sub-Mission on Agricultural Mechanization (SMAM).

The scheme focuses on providing subsidies for newly developed equipment, modern machinery, and gender-friendly tools to farmers. The promotion of farm machinery such as tractors, power tillers, weeders, crop reaper cum binders, rotavators, seed drills, cultivators, etc., addresses the challenge of timely labor availability during critical farming periods. This initiative aims to expedite agricultural operations efficiently within the optimal timeframe, ensuring the potential crop yield while minimizing labor costs in farming.
