Under the initiative, eligible small and marginal farmers are given a fixed monthly pension of Rs. 3,000 after attaining the age of sixty. To qualify, farmers contribute monthly to the pension fund during their working years, with matching contributions from the central government.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This landmark scheme to provide a safety net to farmers in their old age has completed five years of its implementation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Successful Implementation of PM-KMY<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Under Pradhan Mantri Kisan Maandhan Yojna (PM-KMY), small and marginal farmers can enroll by paying a monthly subscription to the Pension Fund. Farmers aged between 18 and 40 years need to contribute between Rs. 55 to Rs. 200 per month until they turn 60.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Once they reach the age of 60, enrolled farmers receive a monthly pension of Rs. 3,000, provided they meet the scheme&#8217;s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/pmkmy.gov.in\/scheme\/pmkmy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">exclusion criteria<\/a>.

The huge registration reflects strong uptake in these states, highlighting the scheme&#8217;s reach and impact in providing social security to farmers. The widespread participation also underscores the growing awareness and adoption of the PM-KMY initiative among small and marginal farmers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0Key Benefits Under PM-KMY<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><strong>Minimum Assured Pension<\/strong>: Each subscriber to the scheme is guaranteed a minimum pension of Rs. 3000 per month upon reaching the age of 60 years<\/li>\n<li><strong>Family Pension<\/strong>: If a subscriber passes away while receiving their pension, their spouse will be entitled to a family pension equal to 50% of the amount the subscriber was receiving i.e. Rs.1500 per month as Family Pension. This is only applicable if the spouse is not already a beneficiary of the scheme. The family pension benefit is exclusively for the spouse.<\/li>\n<li><strong>PM-KISAN Benefit<\/strong>: SMFs can choose to use their PM-KISAN benefits to make voluntary contributions to the scheme. For this, eligible SMFs must sign and submit an enrolment-cum-auto-debit-mandate form.
