💰 What Is PM Kisan Yojana?
The Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana is a welfare scheme launched by the Government of India to provide financial support to small and marginal farmers. Under this scheme, ₹6,000 is distributed every year to eligible farmers in three equal installments of ₹2,000 each. So far, 19 installments have been released, and the 20th installment is expected soon.
📅 When Will the 20th Installment Be Released?
While there hasn’t been an official date announced yet, if we go by the previous payment pattern — where a new installment is released every four months — the 20th installment may be due in June 2025. For example:
- 18th installment: October 2024
- 19th installment: February 2025
- 20th installment: Likely in June 2025

🌾 Why It Matters
For many farmers, this small but regular financial aid helps cover essential agricultural expenses. If you’re a beneficiary, checking your status regularly ensures you stay informed and avoid missing out on any payment due to documentation or verification issues.
If you haven’t received your previous installment or notice any discrepancy, it’s advisable to contact your local agriculture department or PM Kisan helpline.
