Earlier only small and marginal farmers used to benefit Initially when the PM-Kisan Yojana was launched (February, 2019), its benefit was only for the families of small and marginal farmers. It consisted of farmers who had a combined land holding (joint land) up to 2 hectares. The scheme was revised in June 2019 and its scope was extended.
However, some farmers are still excluded from the scheme. Those who were excluded from the PM farmer are institutional land holders, farmer families sitting in constitutional positions, serving or retired officers and employees of the state or central government. It also includes public sector undertakings and official autonomous body officials-employees.
Apart from these, professionals like doctors, engineers and lawyers, as well as retired pensioners with monthly pension of more than Rs 10,000 and income tax filling in the previous assessment year have also been excluded from this scheme.
