In such a situation, they take tractors on rent or use farm animals.

In order to help farmers, the central government has launched a scheme that provides subsidy to buy tractors. The scheme is known as PM Kisan Tractor Yojana. The best thing about this scheme is that a farmer will be able to buy tractor of any company and that too in half the price.
