KAVERI SEEDS, DHANUKA AGRI , MANGALAM SEEDS IN FOCUS CABINET IS LIKELY TO APPROVE PM DHAN DHANYA KRISHI YOJANA FOR 100 LOW-PRODUCTIVITY DISTRICTS — RedboxGlobal India (@REDBOXINDIA) July 16, 2025 At around 10:50 AM, Kaveri Seeds was trading at ₹1,159, up 0.38%; Dhanuka Agritech stood at ₹1,725.80, up 1.21%; and Mangalam Seeds rose 0.57% to ₹175. These gains come amid optimism around the expected policy announcement. The plan, first outlined in the Union Budget on February 1, 2025, seeks to benefit around 1.7 crore farmers by enhancing crop productivity, improving irrigation facilities, and strengthening both long-term and short-term credit access. The scheme is designed to integrate existing initiatives and target districts with low yields, poor sowing patterns, and weak credit metrics. According to the February release, the scheme's key objectives include promoting diversified and sustainable farming practices, expanding storage infrastructure at the panchayat and block levels, and increasing the availability of climate-resilient seeds. Further, the program aims to facilitate skill development, investments, and technology adoption in rural areas to create employment opportunities, reduce migration, and enhance farmers' income. Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman had noted then that the scheme would specifically assist small and marginal farmers, rural women, and landless families by fostering modernisation, encouraging enterprise development, and ensuring fair prices for produce. With the Cabinet now reportedly set to give the formal go-ahead, agri-input and seed companies stand to gain from higher demand for quality seeds, irrigation products, and farm advisory services as the scheme is implemented in the identified districts. Investors will closely watch for the official announcement and further details on implementation timelines and budgetary allocation.
