The scheme launched to give more subsidies to farmers will prefer women for benefits for gender mainstreaming in agriculture, said officials

Jaipur:
The Rajasthan government will focus on women farmers in a new subsidy scheme for livelihood improvement, said officials.

The scheme launched to give more subsidies to farmers will prefer women for benefits for gender mainstreaming in agriculture, the officials added.

The scheme will be run by the water resources department (WRD) and will roll out before the next crop season. This will be top-up to the existing subsidy by agriculture and horticulture departments.

“Under the Rajasthan Water Sector Livelihood Improvement Project (RWSLIP), top-up subsidy to the extent of 5% to 25% will be given to farmers to motivate them to adopt modern agricultural techniques, especially micro irrigation,” said WRD principal secretary Naveen Mahajan.

The project is aimed at improving livelihood of farmers in the canal command area through improved yield, increase in intensity of irrigation due to water saving, reduction in cost of labour, fertilizer and energy required for cultivation, and improved disease control.

The implementation of micro irrigation system under RWSLIP will be carried out by dovetailing with existing schemes of the horticulture and agriculture departments. “Synergy with agriculture and horticulture is new theme we are working on to ensure sustainable livelihood thrust,” Mahajan said.
