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. In Haryana, the state Fisheries Department implements this Centrally Sponsored Scheme, which focuses on post-harvest infrastructure and 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 the quality of freshly caught fish during transit from landing sites to markets, reducing post-harvest losses and improving market access. The scheme supports hygienic handling and distribution practices, benefiting consumers and strengthening the fisheries value chain in Haryana. It also encourages micro-entrepreneurship and sustainable practices within the sector.
