Green Tractor Scheme Phase V 2026: Rs 10 Lakh Subsidy, 9,500 Tractors and Closed Registration Record

If you have seen posts saying the Green Tractor Scheme Phase V is still open, please read this first. Phase V did open on 23 September 2026, offering a subsidy of Rs 1,000,000 on high-power tractors of 75 to 125 HP. But that window has now closed. The last date to apply was 5 October 2026, and no new Phase V applications are being accepted. This article gives you the full record of the closed round, who it was for, and what you should do next.

What Phase V Offered Farmers

Phase V was the high-power round of the scheme for 2026-27, made for farmers with bigger holdings who need a stronger tractor for heavy work such as deep ploughing, trolley work and larger implements. The Agriculture Department listed 9,500 tractors, each carrying a Rs 1,000,000 subsidy, with the farmer paying the remaining price himself.

• Phase name: Phase V, also called the Hi Power phase of the Green Tractor Programme.
• Tractor power: 75 to 125 HP, suited to heavy farm work on larger holdings.
• Subsidy amount: Rs 1,000,000 per tractor, paid as support on the tractor price.
• Total for 2026-27: 19,500 tractors across Phase IV and Phase V together.
• Total allocation: Rs 17.6 billion announced for the scheme at the launch briefing.
• One honest note on the number: a later cabinet briefing report mentioned 10,000 high-powered tractors. This article uses 9,500, because that is the figure stated by the Agriculture Department in its 2026-27 record and in the official statements issued when applications were invited.

Key Dates: Opening, Closing and Balloting

The dates matter a great deal here, because old posts are still moving on social media without any date check. Phase V opened on the same day as a major event in Lahore. On 23 September 2026, Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif conducted the digital balloting for Phase IV, and on that occasion the Phase V portal was also opened for applications. Farmers then had a short window to apply online.

• Portal opened: 23 September 2026, alongside the Phase IV digital balloting.
• Last date to apply: 5 October 2026, announced in advance by the Punjab Agriculture Information Directorate.
• Present position: registration is closed, and no new Phase V applications are accepted.
• Balloting for Phase V: no official date has been announced yet. Do not trust any balloting date shared on an unofficial page.
• Old posts are the main risk: a post made in late September saying “apply now” was correct at the time, but the same post shared in late October is wrong, because the last date has passed.

Who Could Apply for Phase V

Phase V had a clear land condition. A farmer needed 7 acres or more of agricultural land to apply. This is higher than Phase IV, where the minimum was 5 acres, because high-power tractors are meant for larger farms. The scheme is for Punjab farmers, and land and identity are checked through official records before any name can go into a balloting.

• Land needed: 7 acres or more of agricultural land for Phase V.
• Area: the scheme covers farmers in Punjab.
• Verification: land record checked through the Punjab Land Records Authority, and identity through NADRA.
• Selection method: digital balloting among eligible applicants, not first come, first served.
• Applying alone is not enough: only applicants whose records pass verification are treated as eligible for the draw.

How Applications Were Submitted

Applications for Phase V were submitted online, directly by the farmer, with no agent needed. The official portal named by the Punjab Agriculture Information Directorate was gts.punjab.gov.pk, and the department website agripunjab.gov.pk was also named for information. Farmers visited the portal, gave their CNIC and mobile details, filled in personal and land details, and submitted the form inside the announced dates.

• Method used: online application on the official portal, within the announced dates.
• Details asked: CNIC, mobile number, personal details and land details.
• Keep safe: your application reference, if you applied, for any future status check.
• No agent needed: the official process was direct and online, and no person could add a late entry.
• Help was also available in person: farmers could visit their district Deputy Director Agriculture Extension office for guidance on the process.

Phase IV and Phase V Side by Side

Many farmers mix up the two phases, because they ran close together and share one programme name. Keeping them separate will stop most of the confusion about subsidy amounts, land limits and dates.

• Phase IV: 10,000 tractors of 50 to 65 HP, subsidy Rs 750,000 per tractor, minimum 5 acres of land.
• Phase V: 9,500 tractors of 75 to 125 HP, subsidy Rs 1,000,000 per tractor, minimum 7 acres of land.
• Phase IV balloting: digital balloting held on 23 September 2026, with 128,757 eligible applicants from 213,637 applications.
• Phase V balloting: date not announced yet, and no result list exists for this phase.
• District quotas: in Phase IV, district shares were fixed according to farmland area, so districts with more farmland received a larger share.
• Common rule for both phases: verification through PLRA and NADRA came before balloting, and selection was by digital ballot, not by order of application.

What to Do Now: Applicants and Those Who Missed Out

Your next step depends on which group you are in, but in both cases the rule is the same: trust only official sources, and never pay anyone for entry.

• If you applied before 5 October: keep your CNIC and your registered mobile number active, keep your application record safe, and wait for official news about verification and balloting.
• If you missed the window: do not pay any agent who promises a late entry. No person can add your name after the closing date.
• Correct your land record now: make sure your PLRA record is correct and matches your CNIC, and fix any spelling or ownership mistake at the proper office while there is no deadline pressure.
• Stay informed: check only the official portal and Agriculture Department notices for any future round.
• Ask for help properly: call the Agriculture Helpline on 0800-17000, daily from 8am to 8pm, for genuine guidance.
• Share with care: do not forward “apply now” messages for a closed round, because they mislead other farmers.

Conclusion

Phase V offered a Rs 1,000,000 subsidy on 9,500 high-power tractors of 75 to 125 HP for farmers with 7 acres or more of land. Registration opened on 23 September 2026 and closed on 5 October 2026, and no official balloting date has been announced yet. If you applied, keep your record safe and wait for official balloting news. If you missed it, correct your land record, keep your CNIC valid, and watch the official portal for any future round.
