The objective here is to increase milk production while preserving genetic resources.

Scheme Overview 

  • Scheme Name: Rashtriya Kamdhenu Aayog 
  • Scheme Modified: 2021-22

 Benefits of Rashtriya Kamdhenu Aayog

The drawback of Kamdhenu Aayog

  • The project can start only with a proper project plan which will be reviewed and approved by the Project Sanctioning Committee (PSC). So it can take longer to have the project implemented finally.  
  • Currently, there is no direct helpline number for the Kamdhenu Ayog. It will currently be under the National Animal Disease Control Programme. 
  • Although awareness programs are promoted for the farmers to help with this scheme, until they fully understand the benefits, the project’s success will be slow.  
  • Moreover, the need for more scientific studies is crucial before implementation.

How to Apply?

The project does not accept direct applications. The project implementation is through the states via Implementing Agencies, which will direct the funding to the participating agencies. There are several stages for this program to be functional, with several aspects and departments. So there has yet to be a single window application process for this scheme.

At the same time, similar schemes are functional in various states. The state-authorized procedures will have specific dates for application, and you can enquire about the same with your local authorities for more details.

Documents Required

The list of actual documents will be notified later. The general documents required for the Rashtriya Kamdhenu Scheme are,

It can be a game changer for the farmers and the country when implemented well and successfully. The farmers can double their income with less investment and ample support from the authorities. India, already the largest milk producer, can effectively push the Make In India program further.

The Indian government has launched a new credit card for animal husbandry farmers. This will help the farmers earn more and provide them with extra resources. This Pashu Kisan Credit Card is issued in collaboration with the RBI to help animal husbandry farmers and those in the fisheries sector. Haryana is the first state to implement this scheme and has issued loans for several eligible farmers.

CATEGORY  REMARKS
