1.0 Introduction
(i) Among the states, farm power availability in Punjab, Haryana, Western
Uttar Pradesh and western part of Rajasthan is higher than the national
average of 1.73kW/ha. In rest of the country, especially in Eastern and
North-East Regions, it is significantly lower which necessities promotion
of farm mechanization as a special Mission.
(ii) Sub Mission on Agricultural Mechanization (SMAM) will be implemented
in accordance with guidelines described hereunder.
(iii) The scheme will be implemented in all the states, to promote the usage of
farm mechanization and increase the ratio of farm power to cultivable
unit area up to 2 kW/ha.
(iv) SMAM will have central sector schemes under component No.1& 2.
Centrally Sponsored schemes are covered under component No.3 to 8in
which Government of India contributes 75% and states contribute 25%.

(iii)
(iv)
(v)
(vi)
(vii)
Identify the areas of low ratio of farm power availability /areas with large
number of small and marginal holdings for implementation of farm
mechanization components.
Identify beneficiaries (Farmers, Self Help Groups (SHGs), User Groups,
Cooperative Societies, Farmer Producer Organizations (FPOs) and
Entrepreneurs) to avail the benefits of SMAM in transparent and time
bound manner. Identify entrepreneurs/SHGs to establish custom hiring
centres.
Prepare district AAP with physical and financial targets under each
component.
Utilize online application software for the entire process of identification
and selection of beneficiary, processing of applications and
disbursement of financial assistance to the beneficiary after ensuring
the proof of procurement of equipment/inputs as per provisions and
norms.
Receive funds from State Nodal Department for implementing the
programmes.
Make efforts for direct transfer of subsidy to the farmers/beneficiary on
the basis of ADHAR No. wherever infrastructure is functional in the
district.
Monitor & display details of approved programme, all activities
undertaken and name of beneficiaries, expenditure incurred etc. at the
Panchayat Bhavan/prominent public place in the cluster/village level
and get it placed before the concerned Gram Sabha annually from the
point of social audit.

DAC & FW will allocate the funds to the State and Implementing Agencies
based on the following parameters:
a) 50% weightage to the proportion of states cultivable area to total
cultivable area of the country;and

marginal holdings to total area under small and marginal farmers
in the country.
c) Release of flexi-funds would be made on a pro-rata basis along with
normal releases of SMAM. In other words, no separate system for
release or for utilization certificate for flexi-funds would be required.
(i)
Funds would be released to the States /Implementing Agencies in
two Installments.
(ii) The release of the first installment upon the approval AAP and
release of 2nd installment after utilization of at least 60% of the funds
