Khet Bachao Abhiyan:
The Union Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare will conduct the month-long ‘Khet Bachao Abhiyan’ from 1–30 June 2026 across the country.
Khet Bachao Abhiyan is a nationwide agricultural awareness and outreach campaign led by the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare to promote sustainable farming practices, improve soil health, and strengthen farm-level decision-making.
Aim is to promote balanced and judicious use of fertilizers based on soil health and scientific recommendations.
Provide weather-based, region-specific farm advisories while linking farmers to government schemes and agricultural support
Key Features:
Balanced Fertilizer Use: Encourages fertilizer application based on soil testing, Integrated Nutrient Management (INM), and greater use of organic, bio-, and green manure inputs.
Climate-Smart Farm Advisories: Farmers receive practical guidance on crop choices, diversification, water-scarcity management, and weather-related risks.
Massive Institutional Participation: Implemented jointly by Panchayats, Krishi Vigyan Kendras (KVKs), ICAR institutes, State Governments, and Agriculture Departments.
Panchayat-Centric Approach: Focuses on village-level implementation with active participation of local institutions and community leaders.
Scheme Convergence: Integrates benefits of PM-KISAN, Kisan Credit Card, Pulses-Oilseeds Mission, Oil Palm Mission, Cotton Mission, mechanization support, and water conservation initiatives.
