Introduction to Extended Agricultural Loan Subsidies

In 2025, the Indian government has extended agricultural loan subsidies to bolster farmer welfare. Schemes like Kisan Credit Card (KCC) and PM-KISAN offer enhanced interest subventions and waivers. Loanpao partners with banks and NBFCs to provide farmers with seamless access to these subsidized loans for crops, equipment, and allied activities.
