UP Biogas Plant Subsidy Yojana 2019-20: Hello friends, today we will talk about “UP Biogas Plant Subsidy Scheme”. Let us tell you that the Government of Uttar Pradesh is again considering a plan to generate energy from cow dung and waste. Energy will be produced in 30 districts of the state under the Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan. Biogas plants will be prepared from compost manure and adsorption pits at the village panchayat level. In Uttar Pradesh, “Biogas Plant Subsidy Yojana” has been operated by the government to use livestock waste as energy. There are about 4 lakh 80 thousand livestock in the state from which about 1200 lakh tonnes of waste material is estimated to be produced. Mosquitoes, moths, moths, etc. are produced due to these waste materials not being fully utilized by the villagers. Which causes environmental pollution.
At least 50 kg / day of dung is required to set up two cubic meters of biogas plant for making two time meals for a family of five members and for lighting a lamp for 4-5 hours. In which, in addition to cow dung animals, feces, chickens’ beets and crop residues (waste) are also used. These waste materials are used by the villagers for cooking. Despite this, a large part of cow dung is wasted. The use of livestock waste as a biogas plant also produces energy as well as organic food. Which serves as the best food for the production of crops. Farmers, dairy organizations, poultry farm operators etc. can avail the benefits of “Biogas Plant Subsidy Yojana”. Come, complete information about the plan.
What is Biogas Plant Subsidy Scheme?
According to the order of the Directorate of Panchayati Raj, beneficiaries will be selected in the Gram Panchayats for the implementation of the scheme. In this only those beneficiaries will be selected, who can spend 40% of the total cost themselves as contribution. The remaining 60 per cent will be provided under the scheme. It is worth mentioning that a plan has been started to set up a dung gas plant for energy in Benti village adopted by the Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh.
The utility of Gobar gas plant is very important in the lives of farmers. It is used as fuel, cow dung, and fertilizer. Till now farmers keep cow dung in the open, which is scattered in the fields when it is dry. Due to this, many kinds of diseases are spread in the fields of the farmers because many kinds of insects are planted in the dried dung. Which are harmful for crop and field.
