Major Schemes Channeled Through Bihar DBT Portal
The portal serves as the unified digital gateway for all state and central agricultural subsidy programs in Bihar.
Farmers register once to generate a unique 13-digit Farmer Registration Number (Kisan Panjikaran), which unlocks eligibility across multiple programs.
- PM-Kisan Samman Nidhi: Enrollment, e-KYC authentication, land seeding, and installment tracking for Bihar beneficiaries
- Krishi Yantra Subsidy: Online application and lottery permits for subsidized agricultural machinery (rotavators, seed drills, harvesters)
- Diesel Subsidy Scheme: Financial assistance compensating farmers for diesel irrigation pumping costs during drought or delayed monsoons
- Krishi Input Subsidy: Crop damage compensation following unseasonal rains, river floods, or hailstorms verified through geo-tagging
- Seed Subsidies: Subsidized certified seed distribution through Bihar Rajya Beej Nigam (BRBN)
Farmer Registration (Kisan Panjikaran) Process
Generating a 13-digit registration ID requires Aadhaar verification linked with an active mobile phone number.
Farmers can complete registration independently online or at local Common Service Centers (CSC) and Vasudha Kendras.
- Required Details: Aadhaar card number, Aadhaar-linked mobile phone for OTP authentication, bank account details, and land revenue receipt (Rasid)
- Single Registration ID: The 13-digit panjikaran number is permanent and used for all subsequent subsidy applications
- Bank Seeding: Bank account must be seeded with NPCI/Aadhaar to ensure seamless Direct Benefit Transfer without rejection
Application Tracking and Grievance Redressal
Farmers can check application status, lottery draw results for farm implements, and payment disbursement logs directly on the portal.
Block Agriculture Officers (BAO) and Kisan Samanvayaks (Coordinators) conduct on-ground verification within designated service timelines.
- Status Verification: Enter the 13-digit registration number on the portal to monitor application processing steps
- Physical Inspection: For equipment subsidies, officers verify machine chassis serial numbers and purchase tax invoices in person
- Helpline Support: Toll-free farmer assistance helplines and Kisan Call Centers assist with application bottlenecks
