Agriculture Ministry's FY27 budget at Rs 1.4 lakh crore a five-fold jump from 2013-14 level

The Modi government has significantly increased the Agriculture Ministry's budget for FY27 to Rs 1.4 lakh crore, marking a five-fold increase from the 2013-14 level. This substantial funding aims to enhance agricultural productivity and support farmers, with Rs 4.3 lakh crore disbursed under the PM-KISAN scheme and a record food grain production of 3,577 lakh tonnes. The release of over 3,000 climate-resistant crop varieties and a 37% growth in agriculture exports underscore the importance of this initiative for food security and economic stability.
