Model Fertilizer Retail One-Stop Shop: Explained

Fertilizer is the primary need for Indian farmers to grow their crops properly. And to buy fertilizers, Indian farmers need to buy these from shops of the company's dealer. These fertilizer company-operated dealers do not maintain any record of fertilizer inputs. As a result, farmers are required to visit multiple shops to buy ideal fertilizer and other inputs.

To solve this problem of farmers, the central government decided to start these retail shops so that farmers could buy all the inputs in one place. Since these shops provide all the inputs, they are named Model Fertilizer Retail One-Stop Shops.

On these retail outlets, farmers will have the option to purchase agrochemicals, fertilizers, seeds, and a bunch of other inputs required for farming. Not only this, but these outlets will also provide soil testing facilities and information about new government schemes for farmers.

The Number of Model Fertilizer Retail One Stop Shop Will Increase

If the Model Fertilizer Retail One Stop Shop works well and helps farmers to get ideal fertilizer and benefits. The government will increase the number of retail outlets under this scheme. Currently, it is planned to set up 600 retail shops in various locations across India. This great initiative is in its early stage, and it's expected it will drive great results in the future.

PM Modi will also Issue the 12th Installment of PM Kishan Yojna.

The media reports state that PM Modi will issue the 12th installment of PM Kishan Yojna on this day. If this happens, about 11 lakh farmers will get benefits and Rs 2,000 in their linked bank accounts. Under PM Kishan Yojna, the central government provides Rs 6,000 yearly to farmers in three installments after four months each.
