About Telangana Sheep Distribution Scheme 2023

The second phase of the Sheep Distribution Scheme will be kickstarted in Telangana on June 5. Sheep distribution aimed at supporting the livelihoods of Golla Kuruma community and promoting animal husbandry. TS Sheep Distribution Scheme was introduced by the Government of Telangana as a part of their larger initiative to uplift the rural economy and empower farmers and livestock rearers. 

Sheep Distribution Scheme in Telangana focuses on providing support to shepherds and small-scale farmers by distributing quality sheep to eligible beneficiaries. The primary objective is to enhance income generation and improve the socio-economic conditions of rural households.

Under TS sheep distribution scheme phase 2, the state government will provide assistance and support to eligible beneficiaries, who are generally shepherds or farmers engaged in animal husbandry. The selected beneficiaries receive a specified number of sheep, along with necessary vaccinations and training in sheep rearing techniques. The scheme aims to improve the overall productivity of sheep and increase the income of the beneficiaries through the sale of wool, meat, and other sheep-related products.
