The Bihar government has set March 19, 2026 as the deadline for sugarcane farmers to avail subsidies under the mechanisation scheme.

Under the programme, farmers can receive up to 50–60 percent subsidy on agricultural equipment purchases. Officials said selected farmers must complete purchases within the deadline, failing which their permits will be cancelled automatically.

The scheme aims to promote mechanisation in farming and improve productivity. Authorities have urged eligible farmers to act promptly to benefit from the initiative.
