The PM Kisan Samman Sammelan 2022 will be
launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi
on 17th October at around 11:30 AM at the Indian Agricultural Research Institute
in New Delhi. More than 13,500
farmers from all around the country and about 1,500 agri entrepreneurs are expected to attend the two-day event.
The
Prime Minister will officially open 600
Pradan Mantri Kisan Samruddhi Kendras (PMKSK) under the ministry of chemicals and fertilisers.
PMKSK
will provide agri-inputs like
fertilisers, seeds, and implements; testing facilities for soil, seeds, and
fertilisers; awareness-raising activities for farmers; details on various
government programmes; and regular capacity building for retailers at
block/district level outlets.
These
activities will meet a wide range of farmer needs.
In
the country, a progressive conversion of more
than 3.3 lakh retail fertiliser stores into PM Kisan Samman Sammelan
Kendras (PMKSK) is envisaged.
During
the occasion, the PM will also introduce the One Nation One Fertilizer initiative,
Bhartiya Jan Urvarak Pariyojana.
In
order to assist businesses in marketing fertilisers under the single brand name
“Bharat,” he will introduce Bharat Urea Bags.
Direct
benefit transfer will be used to distribute the 12th instalment payment under the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN) for the welfare of
farmers.
Additionally,
the PM will open the Agri Startup Conclave and Exhibition, where about 300
firms will present their cutting-edge farming innovations.
The
occasion will also see the launch of the fertiliser-focused e-magazine “Indian Edge.”
