PM-KMY — contributory pension for eligible farmers
PM-Kisan Maandhan is a voluntary pension scheme for eligible small and marginal farmers. The September 2026 official explanation sets out joining age, land-record conditions, exclusions, contributions and CSC enrolment. It differs from PM-KISAN income support: subscribers contribute towards a pension payable later, rather than receiving an immediate pension merely by registering.
