CM Punjab Green Tractor Scheme Phase 2 (2025) has officially been launched, marking a major leap forward in sustainable agriculture and farmer empowerment. Under the leadership of the Chief Minister of Punjab, this phase introduces a host of new benefits designed to reduce the financial burden on small and marginal farmers, accelerate the adoption of green technologies, and make agricultural operations more efficient and cost-effective.
Unlike its predecessor, Phase 1 (2023), which had limited reach and coverage, Phase 2 has expanded eligibility, increased subsidies, and introduced an end-to-end digital application process. This initiative is a strategic part of Punjab’s long-term goal to achieve its Net Zero Carbon Emission Target by 2047, all while improving the livelihoods of over 200,000 small farmers across the province.
What is the CM Punjab Green Tractor Scheme Phase 2?
The CM Punjab Green Tractor Scheme was originally conceptualized to boost mechanization in farming and reduce operational costs for small farmers. Launched initially in 2023, it provided a limited number of tractors on subsidy. Now, in March 2025, the Punjab government has reintroduced this initiative with upgraded benefits, broader eligibility, and a clear focus on eco-friendliness.
This scheme aims to distribute 10,000+ electric and biofuel-compatible tractors by 2026, offering direct subsidies up to 55%, especially benefiting women, differently-abled individuals, and disadvantaged groups. More importantly, the tractors are embedded with green technologies such as solar charging kits, low-emission fuel systems, and soil-testing sensors, ensuring farmers are equipped for a sustainable future.
