Exam-ready takeaways

The coming year will focus on scaling up successful interventions and improving outcomes across all identified districts, with the overarching vision of making all 100 PMDDKY districts truly “Dhan-Dhaanya” — rich in grain and rich in prosperity.

Shri Shivraj Singh Chouhan also emphasised that the Khet Bachao Abhiyan, scheduled to be organised across all States from 22 October to 30 November 2026, aims to promote soil health through the balanced and judicious use of fertilisers.

The scheme monitors district performance against 121 indicators through a dedicated dashboard, with monthly rankings encouraging transparency and healthy competition among districts.

Prime Minister Dhan Dhaanya Krishi Yojana (PMDDKY), announced in Union Budget 2025-26, was formally launched on 11th October, 2025 to cover 100 districts with low productivity, low cropping intensity and less agricultural credit disbursement.

The Scheme aims to enhance agricultural productivity, increase adoption of crop diversification and sustainable agricultural practices, augment post-harvest storage at the panchayat and block levels, improve irrigation facilities and facilitate availability of long-term and short-term credit.
