In 2025, Punjab’s agriculture sector entered a new era of modernization and empowerment.

This visionary step is not just a project—it’s a revolution for farmers in Punjab. From providing modern equipment and quality inputs to offering expert advisory services, these centers are designed to uplift small and large farmers alike.
Let’s dive deep into what this historic initiative offers, who benefits, and how to access these life-changing services.
What is the Farmer Support Package 2025?
The Kisan (Farmer) Package 2025 is a flagship program by the Punjab Government aimed at reviving the agriculture sector, boosting crop productivity, and ensuring prosperity for farmers.
The core focus is to create a self-sustaining agricultural ecosystem by:
-
Making quality agricultural inputs accessible.
-
Offering modern machinery at subsidized rates.
-
Establishing centralized Model Agri Centers (Agri Malls).
-
Providing technical support and advisory desks.
-
Improving market access for farmers.
Model Agriculture Centers – What Are They?
The Model Agri Centers, also called Model Agriculture Malls, are physical one-stop hubs where farmers can find everything they need for successful and sustainable farming.
Each center includes:
-
High-Quality Seeds
Certified and climate-suitable seeds for better yields. -
Fertilizers & Pesticides
Government-approved products to ensure crop safety and productivity. -
Agricultural Machinery on Rent
Small and large farmers can rent tools like tractors, harvesters, and sprayers at nominal rates. -
Expert Advisory Desks
Trained agricultural officers and specialists are present to guide farmers on sowing techniques, pest control, irrigation, and more. -
Farmer Training Programs
Regular workshops and training sessions are held to educate farmers on modern practices.
Cities Selected for Model Agri Centers
To ensure regional balance and maximum reach, the Punjab Government has strategically launched these centers in:
1. Multan
A hub of cotton, mango, and wheat farming—farmers here often struggle with access to machinery and certified pesticides.
2. Bahawalpur
Known for its vast agricultural lands, but under-mechanized. The agri center addresses this gap.
3. Sargodha
Famous for citrus production. Farmers need advanced inputs to combat crop diseases.
4. Sahiwal
A mix of dairy and crop farming—mechanization and expert guidance are vital here.
These cities were chosen based on population density, farming activity, and infrastructural gaps.
Why Are These Centers a Game-Changer?
The traditional problems faced by Punjab’s farmers include:
-
Poor access to quality seeds and fertilizers
-
High cost of machinery
-
Lack of expert guidance
-
Crop failure due to outdated practices
The new agri centers solve these issues by centralizing access and removing intermediaries.
Now, a farmer can:
-
Rent a tractor in the morning.
-
Buy certified seeds in the afternoon.
-
Attend a training session in the evening.
-
And get pest control advice—all at the same place.
This convenience is expected to boost crop yields, reduce losses, and improve farmer incomes.
