1. Background of the Scheme:

Promotion and Strengthening of Agricultural Mechanisation is an ongoing Central Sector Scheme and during XI plan period the scheme has been modified, for more effective implementation while maintaining existing funding pattern. The scheme aims at promotion of agricultural mechanisation through popularising new technology based equipment, human resources development in field of agricultural mechanisation and quality improvement of machines and equipment.

The scheme has the following five major components during XI Plan period, out of which fifth component is new.

(i) Human resource development in field of farm mechanisation through existing FMTTIs.

(ii) Testing of agricultural machines and equipments for their performance evaluation and quality up-gradation through existing FMTTIs.

(iii) Demonstration of newly developed agricultural/horticultural equipments at farmers’ fields.

(iv) Training of farmers by outsourcing the training.

(v) Establishment of parallel line for testing for tractors at CFMTTI, Budni (MP) (New component).

2. Operational Guidelines:

2.1 Human resource development in the field of farm mechanization through the existing Farm Machinery Training & Testing Institutes.
