Mukhyamantri Krushi Udyog Yojana: Top-up subsidy for Commercial Dairy Farming

The scheme “Top-up subsidy for Commercial Dairy Farming” was launched by the Directorate of Animal Husbandry & Veterinary Services, Odisha, under Mukhyamantri Krushi Udyog Yojana (MKUY). It aims to encourage large dairy farmers/entrepreneurs to procure high-yielding cattle from outside the state. Through this scheme, an additional 15% subsidy on animal cost as a Top-Up will be provided to the entrepreneurs towards the purchase of animals from outside the State. The scheme shall be implemented by the Directorate of Animal Husbandry & Veterinary Services, Odisha, Cuttack in collaboration with APICOL. The top-up subsidy will be calculated based on the eligible Capital Investment for cattle as per MKUY guidelines. Top-up subsidy will not be considered for the calculation of up-front subsidy, rather it will be released only after the completion of the project during the final release of CIS. Only MKUY dairy entrepreneurs are eligible to avail the “Top-up subsidy” under this scheme, and it is mandatory to bring cattle from outside the state.
