Crores of farmers in the country are taking advantage of this great scheme of the Government of India. Under the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana, financial assistance of Rs 6 thousand is provided to the poor farmers of the country every year.

So far, farmers have got the benefit of a total of 17 installments of PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana.
At the same time, many farmers in the country often have questions whether both farmer husband and wife can apply together in the scheme and avail of the benefits of PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana.

In a special program organized in Varanasi in June, Prime Minister Narendra Modi released the 17th installment of PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana. After getting the benefit of the 17th installment, crores of farmers in the country are now eagerly waiting for the 18th installment.
If media reports are to be believed, the central government can release the 18th installment of PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana in October before Diwali. However, the government has not yet made any official announcement regarding the release of the 18th installment of PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana.
