Correct Answer: Small and marginal farmers
 


Solution : The correct answer is  (a) Small and marginal farmers

The PM-Kisan scheme is a government initiative launched by the Government of India in February 2019. Under this scheme, eligible small and marginal farmers receive direct income support of Rs. 6,000 per year in three equal installments. The scheme aims to provide financial assistance to farmers to support their agricultural activities and ensure their income stability.

It is important to note that the PM-Kisan scheme is specifically targeted towards small and marginal farmers, who are considered economically vulnerable and make up a significant portion of the farming community in India.
