No, this scheme applies to those farmers who use their land for agricultural purposes only. The PM-KISAN scheme is specifically designed to provide financial assistance to farmer families with cultivable land. The eligibility criteria state that only those who own cultivable land as per the land records of their respective states or Union Territories are eligible for the scheme.
The eligibility is determined based on the land records maintained by state authorities, which must reflect the land as cultivable for the farmer to qualify for the benefits under the scheme.
