इस योजना के बारे में अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले प्रश्न
RKVY is a Centrally Sponsored Scheme (CSS) implemented as a State Plan scheme with 100% central assistance provided as grant-in-aid to State Governments.
No. Individual farmers cannot apply directly to the Centre. Funds flow from the Centre to State Governments. Farmers access benefits through state-level implementing departments (Agriculture, Horticulture, etc.) by applying at the District/Block level for specific sub-components like farm mechanization, cold storage, or organic farming.
RKVY-RAFTAAR (Remunerative Approaches for Agriculture and Allied sector Rejuvenation) is a sub-scheme launched in 2017-18 focusing on pre-harvest and post-harvest infrastructure, value addition, and agri-entrepreneurship. It provides financial support and incubation to agri-startups (up to ₹25 lakh for ideation and up to ₹5 crore for scaling) and funds infrastructure projects.
For North Eastern States and Himalayan States (Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Jammu & Kashmir, Ladakh), the funding pattern remains 100% Central Grant, identical to other states. However, they often receive higher allocation weightage due to difficult terrain and special category status.
Projects are selected by the State Level Sanctioning Committee (SLSC) headed by the Chief Secretary. The SLSC approves the Annual Action Plan based on the State Agriculture Plan (SAP) and District Agriculture Plans (DAP). Projects must address gaps in production, infrastructure, or value chains identified in these plans.
Mandatory documents include: Certificate of Incorporation/Registration, DPIIT Recognition Certificate (or State Startup Recognition), PAN Card, Aadhaar of Directors/Promoters, Detailed Business Plan/Pitch Deck, Bank Account Details, and a Letter of Recommendation from the respective RKVY-RAFTAAR Knowledge Partner (Incubator).
