Supply of High Cost Machinery under RKVY
•High cost machinery like Paddy Transplanters, Rice Combine Harvesters,
Highly Automated Threshers etc. are supplied to farmer groups by allowing
Rs. 10.00 lakhs subsidy per unit.
•A revolutionary change in harvesting of Paddy crop was witnessed.
•This intervention also help the farmers to get their produce even during
erratic conditions without loss of income.
•The combine harvester is used for about 150-200 days by the groups and
realizing 50% profit by hiring
•The saving is nearly Rs. 700-900 per hour on hiring combine harvester
