Punjab farmers who missed the Green Tractor Scheme Phase IV application window cannot submit a new application right now. The Punjab Agriculture Department extended the final date to 5 September 2026, and that deadline has now passed.
Under Phase IV for 2026–27, the Punjab Government has planned 10,000 subsidized tractors in the 50–65 HP category. The subsidy is Rs.750,000 per tractor, and the official program targets farmers with 5 acres or more agricultural land.

Punjab Green Tractor Scheme 2026 Current Status
The current low-power tractor round is officially listed as the Chief Minister’s Punjab Green Tractor Program Phase IV 2026–27.
A point that can easily confuse farmers is the closing date. Earlier Punjab Agriculture notices mentioned 31 August 2026 as the deadline. The department later announced an extension, allowing applications until 5 September 2026. The later date is the one that matters.
As of 16 September 2026, that application period has ended. So if you see an older post saying registration is still open or that 31 August is the final date, check the date of that information before acting.
The Punjab Agriculture Department still keeps its Green Tractor Program page online and provides the official scheme information and application resources.
For farmers who already applied, the practical step now is to follow updates through the official Green Tractor portal and Punjab Agriculture Department. No Phase IV ballot date should be treated as confirmed unless it is announced through an official source.
Phase IV Subsidy, Tractors and Land Requirement
Phase IV is designed around lower-power tractors suitable for many small and medium farming operations.
The official Agriculture Department’s 2026–27 program information gives these figures:
| Phase IV Feature | Official Detail |
|---|---|
| Tractor category | Low Power |
| Tractor horsepower | 50–65 HP |
| Total subsidized tractors | 10,000 |
| Government subsidy | Rs.750,000 per tractor |
| Minimum landholding | 5 acres and above |
These figures are important because information from older Green Tractor phases is still circulating online. Earlier phases may have different subsidy amounts, eligibility rules or deadlines.
For the current Phase IV page, the figure to use is Rs.750,000 subsidy per tractor, not an old subsidy amount copied from a previous phase.
Also remember that this is a tractor subsidy scheme, not an announcement that every applicant will receive a free tractor. The government contributes the specified subsidy toward tractors provided under the program.
Can You Apply for Green Tractor Phase IV Now?
No. New Phase IV applications are not open as of 16 September 2026.
The application deadline was first publicized as 31 August 2026 and was later extended to 5 September 2026 by the Punjab Agriculture Department.
If you missed the deadline, avoid websites or social media pages that still show an active Apply Now message without a new government announcement.
A government scheme can reopen, receive another extension or move to another phase, but that should not be assumed. Farmers should wait for a fresh notice from the Punjab Agriculture Department or an update on the official Green Tractor portal.
If you have already submitted your application, you do not need to submit another application simply because an older page shows a different date.
How Phase IV Applications Were Submitted
During the application period, the Punjab Agriculture Department’s dedicated Green Tractor Program page provided an Apply for Chief Minister Green Tractor’s Phase IV option along with a downloadable application form.
The safest route for any Green Tractor application is always to start from the Agriculture Department’s own scheme page or the official GTS portal rather than entering personal details on an unknown website.
Since the Phase IV deadline has passed, the application method should now be understood as information for farmers who want to know how this round worked. It should not be taken as an invitation to submit a late application.
If another application round opens, check its own notice carefully. Do not assume that the same deadline, subsidy, forms or eligibility rules will automatically continue into the next round.
What Happens After Applying?
Farmers who submitted a Phase IV application should now watch the official Green Tractor system for the next confirmed step.
The important point is not to rely on an unofficial ballot date. At the time of this update, a current official Phase IV ballot date has not been verified from the Punjab Agriculture Department material checked for this article.
This means applicants should be careful with posts claiming that balloting will definitely take place on a particular day unless the claim is backed by a new official notice.
Keep the details used in your application available and check the official portal periodically. If the Agriculture Department issues a result, balloting, verification, payment or allotment notice, follow the instructions in that specific notice rather than instructions from an older phase.
Green Tractor Phase IV vs Hi Power Phase V
Punjab’s 2026–27 agriculture program lists another tractor initiative alongside Phase IV. It is called the Chief Minister’s Punjab Green Tractor Program Hi Power Phase V.
These are not the same tractor category.
| Detail | Phase IV Low Power | Phase V Hi Power |
|---|---|---|
| Tractor power | 50–65 HP | 75–125 HP |
| Planned tractors | 10,000 | 9,500 |
| Minimum land | 5 acres | 7 acres |
| Subsidy per tractor | Rs.750,000 | Rs.1,000,000 |
The Punjab Agriculture Department currently lists these figures in its 2026–27 Chief Minister initiatives.
This distinction matters because a farmer searching for Punjab Government Tractor Subsidy Scheme 2026 may find figures for both programs. The Rs.750,000 subsidy belongs to the low-power Phase IV, while the current official program listing gives Rs.1 million for the Hi Power Phase V category.
Do not mix the eligibility or tractor horsepower of one phase with the other.
Punjab Green Tractor Scheme FAQs
Can I apply online for Punjab Green Tractor Scheme 2026 Phase IV?
Not now. Phase IV applications closed after the extended deadline of 5 September 2026. Farmers should check the official portal for any fresh registration announcement rather than using an unofficial application website.
What is the tractor subsidy in Punjab for 2026?
For the Green Tractor Program Low Power Phase IV 2026–27, the Punjab Agriculture Department lists a subsidy of Rs.750,000 per tractor. The program covers 10,000 tractors in the 50–65 HP category.
How much land is required for Green Tractor Phase IV?
The official 2026–27 program information says Phase IV is for farmers with 5 acres and above.
Was the Phase IV deadline 31 August or 5 September 2026?
Both dates appeared in official updates, but 5 September 2026 is the later revised deadline. The Agriculture Department first advertised 31 August and then extended the application period to 5 September.
What was the Green Tractor Phase III deadline in 2026?
Be careful with this question because several 2026 Phase III notices relate to selected farmers depositing their share, not submitting a fresh tractor application. For example, the Punjab Agriculture Department published extensions for Phase III payment up to 15 June 2026. That should not be described as a Phase IV registration deadline or a new Phase III application deadline.
When will Phase IV balloting take place?
A current official Phase IV ballot date was not confirmed in the Punjab Agriculture material verified for this update. Applicants should wait for the official announcement instead of relying on an estimated date.
If you already applied for Phase IV, the most useful next step is to check the official Green Tractor portal for the latest application, balloting or selection update.
