Mission for Aatmanirbhar in pulses is a six-year mission with an allocation of Rs 1,000 crore for the financial year 2025-26.
It is focusing on toor (pigeon pea), urad (black gram), and masoor (red lentil).
Under this scheme, central agencies such as NAFED and National Cooperative Consumers’ Federation will procure these pulses “as much as offered” over the next four years from farmers who register with these agencies and enter into agreements.
