What does Per Drop More Crop give me beyond drip and sprinkler subsidy?

Per Drop More Crop, which is the micro irrigation part of the Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana (PMKSY), is best known for drip and sprinkler subsidy, but its aim is broader water use efficiency at the farm. Besides the micro irrigation system itself, the scheme and its allied components can support items that help you apply water more efficiently, such as conveyance from your source to the field and certain on farm water management and micro level water storage structures that feed a micro irrigation system, depending on what your state offers under the scheme and its other interventions. The exact list of supported components and the subsidy slab vary by state and by your farmer category, with small and marginal farmers usually getting a higher percentage. To know what you can claim, go to your state horticulture or agriculture department portal and the PMKSY information, list the components open this year, and apply for the package that fits your farm. Confirm the current component list and subsidy rates before buying, since they are revised each financial year.
