Krishi Udan Yojana
In order to aid farmers in transporting their products and boost value realization through air transportation, Krishi UDAN was introduced in August 2020 on both international and domestic routes. This scheme was launched along the lines of the Udan Scheme. Udan was an air regional connectivity program and it gives a unique chance to the common person to fly at a reasonable price. After the success of Udan, Krishi Udan Yojana was launched to help farmers and promote the transportation of agricultural produce by air.
