5. 👨‍🌾 Farmer Success Stories
Last year’s scheme impact was visible:
“In the first phase of the Green Tractors Programme, 9,500 lucky farmers have already received tractors, and in the second phase, an additional 20,000 tractors will be distributed.”
During a recent “Grow More Wheat” campaign in Multan, 1,000 tractors were distributed via balloting, with top-performing farmers awarded 85 HP tractors and substantial financial incentives.
