Namo Drone Didi

यह क्या है?

Namo Drone Didi gives agricultural drones to women's Self Help Groups in rural areas. The group then provides drone services to farmers nearby - mainly spraying fertiliser and pesticide - and charges for it, which creates an income stream for the group.

The published central financial assistance is 80% of the cost of the drone and its accessories and ancillary charges, up to a maximum of Rs 8 lakh. The remaining amount can be raised as a loan through the National Agriculture Infra Financing Facility with 3% interest subvention.

The drone package as described officially includes the spray assembly, a carrying box, batteries, a fast charger, and accessories such as a pH meter and an anemometer, along with a one-year warranty, two years of annual maintenance and comprehensive insurance.

Training is part of the package. One member of the group receives a five-day mandatory drone pilot training plus ten days of training for agricultural use, and another member is trained as a drone assistant to handle repairs and mechanical work. The official material states the scheme is expected to generate additional income of at least Rs 1 lakh per year for each SHG.

The groups are not chosen individually on application. Clusters are selected first, based on farmer demand for drone services and economic feasibility, and SHGs registered under DAY-NRLM are then selected within those clusters.

आवेदन कैसे करें

Selection is made through the government's own cluster identification process rather than open individual application. Interested women's SHGs registered under DAY-NRLM should approach their DAY-NRLM block or district officials and the district agriculture department, since clusters are identified on the basis of farmer demand and economic feasibility before SHGs within them are selected.
