🌱 CM Green Tractor Scheme (GTS) Phase 3 2025: Your Guide to Modern Farming 🚜

The CM Green Tractor Scheme (GTS) Phase 3 2025 is a major initiative by the Punjab government, led by Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif, to revolutionize the agricultural sector. By offering heavily subsidized modern tractors, the scheme aims to reduce farming costs, increase productivity, and empower small to medium-scale farmers across the province.

Here is a clear breakdown of the program's details, eligibility, and the application process.

🎯 Key Objectives of Phase 3

The core purpose of this phase is to bring tangible change and efficiency to rural farming:

Boost Production: Modern tractors allow for faster and more efficient plowing, sowing, and harvesting, leading to better crop yields.
Lower Costs: The substantial government subsidy directly reduces the financial burden on farmers.
Ensure Transparency: A digital e-balloting system is used for selection, ensuring fairness and preventing favoritism.
Modernize Agriculture: Introduce advanced, high-power machinery to upgrade traditional farming practices.

💰 Subsidy and Tractor Categories

The government is offering significant financial support, with the subsidy amount depending on the tractor's horsepower (HP):

Tractor Category	Horsepower (HP)	Subsidy Amount	Target Beneficiaries
High-Power Tractors	75–125 HP	PKR 1,000,000	Farmers with 7 acres or more (approx. 9,500 tractors available in this phase).
Small Tractors	50–65 HP	Up to PKR 1,000,000	Farmers with smaller landholdings (applications for this category are often collected in later, separate phases).

The total goal for this phase is the distribution of 20,000 tractors across Punjab.
