Question 2 of 5
2. Question
1 pointsConsider the following statements about Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana-
- From the Kharif season 2020, Central government will share only 25 % of the premium amount for the unirrigated area.
- From the Kharif season 2020, it will be voluntary for all farmers, including those with existing crop loans.
Which of the above statements is/are correct?
Correct
The Centre has almost halved its contribution to its own flagship crop insurance schemes, slashing its share of the premium subsidy from the current 50% to just 25% in irrigated areas and 30% for unirrigated areas from the kharif season of 2020.
Farmers pay a fixed share of the premium: 2% of the sum insured for kharif crops, 1.5% for rabi crops and 5% for cash crops. Currently, the Centre and State split the balance of the premium equally. However, the revamp now reduces the burden on the Centre and increases the share of States.
In another significant step, enrolment in the two schemes has also been made voluntary for all farmers, including those with existing crop loans. When the PMFBY was launched in 2016, it was made mandatory for all farmers with crop loans to enrol for insurance cover under the scheme

5. Question
1 pointsConsider the following:
- Carbon monoxide
- Methane

Which of the above are released into the atmosphere due to the burning of crop/biomass residue?
Correct
Crop residues / biomass burning are cheap and easiest method to dispose the leftover crop residues (wheat, rice, sugarcane etc.) after harvesting, for land clearing and pest control.

Burning of these residues emit gases like sulphur dioxide (SO2), oxides of nitrogen (NOx), carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), black carbon (BC), organic carbon (OC), methane (CH4), volatile organic compounds (VOC), non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHCs), ozone (O3), and aerosols etc which affect the global atmospheric chemistry and climate.
