Government of India has introduced a voluntary and contributory pension scheme for landholding Small & Marginal Farmers to provide them social security and a healthy and happy life after they reach their old age. Under this scheme, a monthly pension of Rs 3,000/- will be provided to all eligible Small and Marginal Farmers. Farmers between 18 and 40 years of age are eligible to join the scheme upon payment of monthly contribution between Rs 55 to Rs 200.

Enrolment for the Scheme has started at all Common Service Centres across the country.
