  "account": "Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz has initiated the fourth stage of the Green Tractor Scheme through an online lottery system, while concurrently opening the application portal for the subsequent round. The administration aims to provide 19,500 tractors to farmers throughout the ongoing fiscal year. The digital lottery ceremony took place with the chief minister's presence, with the inaugural tractor of Phase IV being awarded to Masood Khan, son of Lal Khan, hailing from Attock. Phase IV entails the distribution of 10,000 tractors with horsepower ranging from 50 to 65, each receiving a subsidy of Rs. 750,000. Phase V will see the government offering 9,500 tractors with horsepower between 75 and 125, each receiving a subsidy of Rs. 1 million. The Punjab government has set aside Rs. 17.6 billion for the Green Tractor Scheme. To date, 24,000 tractors have been granted to farmers under the initiative, each subsidized at Rs. 1 million. Over 213,637 farmers submitted applications for the Green Tractor Program, of which 128,757 were deemed eligible after verification by the Punjab Land Records Authority and Nadra. Notably, 35,000 tractors have been distributed during Maryam Nawaz's two and a half year term, as opposed to 10,000 tractors provided over the preceding two decades. Additionally, Rs. 20 billion has been invested in agricultural mechanization during the last two and a half years, compared to Rs. 3 billion over the previous two decades.",
