Linking all Farmers to Institutional Credit<\/p>\n

A target of Rs. 16.50 lakh crore for Ground Level Credit (GLC) has been fixed for 2021-22.<\/h2>\n

FEBRUARY 5th<\/div>\n

\u201cTo provide adequate credit to our farmers, I have enhanced the agricultural credit target to `16.5 lakh crore in FY22. We will focus on ensuring increased credit flows to animal husbandry, dairy, and fisheries.\u201d-\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>Finance Minister<\/strong><\/p>\n

Government has been making efforts to link all farmers to institutional credit to ensure timely, hassle free and affordable credit to farmers. As the institutional credit is more affordable in comparison to informal credit system, it has direct bearing on cost of production of farmers.<\/p>\n

Ground level credit (GLC) to agriculture has shown an impressive growth in the last few years and has always remained higher than the overall targets. GLC has nearly doubled from\u00a0Rs.7.30 lakh crore<\/strong>\u00a0to\u00a0Rs.13.92 lakh crore<\/strong>\u00a0during the period 2013\u201314 to 2019\u201320. The\u00a0share of term loan<\/strong>\u00a0in the total GLC has increased from\u00a024.95<\/strong>\u00a0per cent in 2013\u201314 to\u00a040.5%<\/strong>\u00a0in 2019-20. A continuous increase in the share of term loan would lead to the much-needed increase in capital formation in agriculture, and the consequent increase in agricultural productivity.<\/p>\n

The target for ground level credit has increased from 7 lakh crore to 13.50 lakh crore from 2013-14 to 2019-20. During these years agriculture credit disbursement have surpassed the overall targets. The target for ground level credit for agriculture for the year 2020-21 was fixed at Rs.15.00 lakh crore and going by the trend, it is likely that the target would be surpassed. Despite COVID-19 pandemic during the current year, the progress till January 2021 has been encouraging with 76% of annual target achieved.<\/p>\n

Keeping in view the performance under GLC flow during 2013-14 to 2020-21, a target of Rs. 16.50 lakh crore has been fixed for 2021-22.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Govt. is providing interest subvention to farmers through Interest Subvention Scheme(ISS), through which short term crop loans of upto Rs.3 lakh are provided to farmers at an effective interest rate of 4% per annum. Initially the crop loan is provided at 7% to farmers and additional 3% subvention is given on prompt repayment which brings down the effective rate of interest to 4%.<\/p>\n

All these facts and initiatives taken, the enhancement of Ground Level Credit target to Rs.16.5 lakh crore will further boost the efforts of concessional institutional credit to farmers and is bound to act as an enabler in doubling farmers\u2019 income by reducing the cost of credit.\u00a0With affordable bank credit these farmers may also make investments to further expand and modernise their farming operations. The impact of sustainable growth in Agriculture Credit is one of the major factors, which helped Agri sector emerge as a bright spot even during pandemic times.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
