About this scheme

The Dairy Farming Scheme is run by the Haryana Scheduled Castes Finance and Development Corporation (HSFDC), working alongside bank tie-up arrangements. HSFDC is a wholly Government-owned Corporation, held 51% by the State Government and 49% by the Government of India, and its mandate is to back self-employment ventures that generate income.

Loans and benefits under the scheme go to individuals from Below Poverty Line (BPL) families in Haryana whose annual family income is at or below ₹1,80,000. Dairy farming is the main activity financed.

Applicants receive a bank loan together with a sizeable subsidy, which is intended to help them set up and expand micro-enterprises in the dairy sector. Funding reaches beneficiaries through direct benefit transfer, and the Corporation works with financial institutions to keep the process smooth for those who qualify.
