DATUK SERI DR. ZAHID HAMIDI ANNOUNCES RM75 MILLION ADDITIONAL DIESEL AID TO SUPPORT FARMERS AND CONSUMERS

KUALA LUMPUR, April 16 — Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi today announced an additional RM75 million in government cash assistance for diesel users, aimed at easing the burden of rising fuel costs and ensuring continued stability in the agricultural sector. Zahid said the government has increased the Field Ploughing Incentive (IPKP) from RM160 to RM300 per hectare per season, benefiting approximately 200,000 farmers nationwide, with an additional allocation of about RM40 million. He added that the BUDI Agri-Commodity Interim Assistance has also been raised from RM300 to RM400 for April, benefiting more than 200,000 farmers and smallholders, involving an extra RM20 million in monthly funding. In addition, the Individual BUDI Diesel Interim Assistance has been increased from RM300 to RM400 for April, providing support to over 150,000 diesel vehicle owners in Peninsular Malaysia, with an additional RM15 million allocated monthly. To further ease access, Zahid announced that the government will relax the special permit requirement for diesel purchases exceeding 20 litres for non-vehicle usage. “In total, the government will cover RM7 billion in fuel assistance by April 2026 to help Malaysians cope with the pressures of the global energy crisis,” he said. Zahid emphasised that these measures are crucial to ensuring agricultural operations continue smoothly, production costs remain controlled, and the nation’s food supply stays secure. -- Minutes MY / Igneseous Noris -- Credit: FB Zahid Hamidi
