The National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD) has launched an agroecology-based programme called 'JIVA' (meaning life) to promote natural farming, ensure sustainability and rejuvenate 'life' around the agricultural field.
In May 2017, the Central Government had launched SAMPADA (Scheme for Agro-Marine Processing and Development of Agro-Processing Clusters) with an allocation of Rs 6,000 crore. The scheme was renamed PMKSY in August 2017.
