Punjab Clean Air Program 2025 – 60% Subsidy on Super Seeder for Farmers

Punjab is a land of zameendars. Our farmers work day and night in the fields to grow food for the whole country. But sadly, along with crops, Punjab has been suffering from one more thing – dangerous smog. Every year in winter, the air becomes heavy with smoke, children fall sick, schools are closed, and life becomes hard.

The main reason? After harvesting rice, farmers burn the leftover straw (bhusa). Why? Because they don’t have time or machines to clean the fields before the next crop.

But now, Punjab government has taken a big step.

Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz has launched a new scheme called Punjab Clean Air Program 2025. Under this program, farmers will get Super Seeder and Pak Seeder machines on 60% subsidy. This means government will pay 60% of the cost and farmer will only pay 40%.

This is not just a scheme. This is a dream – Sona Uglata Punjab. A Punjab where crops grow, air is clean, and farmers are happy.

Why Punjab Clean Air Program Was Needed

Every year in October and November, when rice (paddy) is harvested, a huge amount of crop residue is left behind. This is called stubble or bhusa.

Farmers burn it because:

  • They don’t have time to remove it manually.
  • Labor is expensive.
  • Machines are not affordable for small farmers.

But this burning creates smoke. That smoke rises up, mixes with fog and creates SMOG. Smog is a killer. It causes:

  • Lung diseases
  • Asthma in children
  • Eye problems
  • Road accidents due to low visibility
  • Closure of schools and flights

Instead of blaming farmers, the government decided to support them.

Super Seeder and Pak Seeder are modern machines that can sow the next crop (like wheat) without burning the previous crop residue. These machines cut the straw and mix it into the soil. So the field becomes ready for the next crop in just one step.

That is why Punjab Clean Air Program is a game changer. It solves 3 problems at the same time:

  1. Stops smog
  2. Improves soil health
  3. Saves farmer’s time and money

Main Features of Punjab Clean Air Program 2025

Here are the simple features of the program that every farmer should know:

  • 60% subsidy on Super Seeder and Pak Seeder machines
  • Available for small, medium and large farmers
  • Total budget of Rs. 2 billion
  • Farmers can apply through Agriculture Department
  • Machines will be distributed in selected districts
  • Target is to distribute more than 10,000 machines
  • No need to burn crop residue after getting this machine
  • Farmers will get training to use the machine

This is the first time such a big scale program is being launched in Punjab for clean air and clean agriculture.

What is a Super Seeder and How It Works

Super Seeder is a special agriculture machine. It is attached to a tractor. It performs 3 functions in one go:

  1. Cuts the remaining rice straw (bhusa)
  2. Mixes it back into the soil
  3. Sows the next crop seeds (like wheat)

So the farmer doesn’t need to burn the straw. Instead, the straw becomes a natural fertilizer for the next crop.

Benefits of Super Seeder:

  • No burning = no pollution
  • Improves soil fertility
  • Saves water
  • Saves diesel
  • Saves time
  • Better crop yield

Benefits of Clean Air Program 2025 for Farmers

CM Punjab Clean Air Program 2025 will bring huge benefits to the farmers of Punjab. Let’s see them one by one:

Financial Benefit

  • Farmers will get the machine at 60% subsidy. For example, if a Super Seeder costs Rs. 500,000, the farmer will only pay Rs. 200,000. This is a huge saving.

No Need to Burn Bhusa

  • Burning bhusa costs money too – in diesel, labor, and time. With this machine, all that is saved.

Soil Becomes Fertile

  • The bhusa that was being burnt will now mix into the soil. It will increase organic matter. This makes the soil rich and productive.

Better Yield of Next Crop

  • Because the soil is better, the next crop (usually wheat) will grow faster and healthier.

Less Health Problems

  • If smog reduces, the health of the whole village improves. Children won’t fall sick, elders will breathe clean air.

Save Diesel and Water

  • Super Seeder uses less diesel and water as compared to traditional methods.

So overall, Allprograms.com.pk thought that, CM Punjab Clean Air Program 2025 is a blessing for every farmer.
