Farmers in the country will be insured under the Pradhan mantri Fasal Bima Yojana 2023 in the event of crop failure due to a natural calamity.

Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana 2023 – Overview

Farmers in the country will be insured under the Pradhan mantri Fasal Bima Yojana 2023 in the event of crop failure due to a natural calamity. The Agriculture Insurance Company of India is in charge of implementing the scheme. The scheme only covers natural disasters such as drought and hailstorms. If the crop is damaged for any other reason, the insurance amount will be forfeited.

The central government has set a budget of Rs 8800 crore for this scheme. Farmers will be required to pay the insurance company 2% of their Kharif crop and 1.5% of their Rabi crop under this scheme. They will then be provided with insurance. If you want to apply for this scheme, you must first visit the official website and then follow the steps outlined below https://pmfby.gov.in/

Important Update!

The central government intends to reform the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana 2023 in order to rationalise premium rates and encourage more insurers to participate. According to some sources, after the Union Cabinet’s approval, some significant changes to the scheme will be implemented beginning with crop year 2023-24 (July-June). The need to modify this scheme was felt as insurance companies’ participation in PMFBY 2023 decreased. As a result of the lack of competition, existing insurers are being forced to pay higher premium rates.
