About this scheme
The "Motor Cycle with Ice Box" scheme operates under the Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana (PMMSY), a Government of India initiative for the fisheries sector. The Fisheries Department, Government of Haryana, implements this Centrally Sponsored Scheme at the state level. It targets post-harvest infrastructure gaps, specifically cold chain logistics for fish transport.
Financial assistance is provided directly to fishers to purchase motorcycles fitted with insulated ice boxes. This equipment helps preserve fish quality during transit from landing sites to markets, reducing post-harvest losses and improving market access. The scheme supports the economic standing of individual fishers, encourages hygienic handling practices, and strengthens the fisheries value chain in Haryana. It serves as a focused measure to support micro-entrepreneurs in the sector.
