    Krishi Paddhati

    Bharatiya Prakritik Krishi Paddhati (BPKP) is a sub-mission under the


    Paramparagat Krishi Vikas Yojana (PKVY), which falls within the umbrella
    of the National Mission on Sustainable Agriculture (NMSA).

    BPKP aims at promoting traditional indigenous practices, which give


    freedom to farmers from externally purchased inputs. It focuses on on-
    farm biomass recycling with major stress on biomass mulching; use of
    cow dung–urine formulations; and exclusion of all synthetic chemical
    inputs either directly or indirectly.

    The scheme has a total outlay of Rs 4645.69 crore for the period of six
    years (2019-20 to 2024-25) and implemented on demand driven basis
    following Centrally Sponsored Scheme (CSS) guidelines. Under BPKP,
    financial assistance of Rs 12200/ha for 3 years is provided for cluster
    formation, capacity building and continuous handholding by trained
    personnel, certification and residue analysis with a vision of covering 12
    lakh ha in 600 major blocks of 2000 hectare in different states.
    The scheme is compliant to PGS-India certification under PGS India
    programme. Eight states - Andhra Pradesh, Chattisgarh, Kerala, Himachal
    Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Odisha, Tamil Nadu and Jharkhand - have
    opted for the scheme.

    This centrally sponsored scheme aims to improve farmers’ profitability,


    availability of quality food and restoration of soil fertility and farmland
    ecosystem as well as generate employment and contribute to rural
    development.
