Agriculture, the cradle of human civilization, stands as the bedrock of our existence.
-

With over 2.5 billion people globally depending on it for livelihood, contributing nearly 30 percent to the GDP, and employing over 60 percent in the Global South, its significance is undeniable. India, with its innovative fusion of 'back to basics' and 'march to the future,' spearheads a holistic approach to farming by championing both natural farming and technology enabled agriculture. Concurrently, Indian farmers leverage technology, harnessing solar power, adopting soil health cards for crop optimisation, and employing drones for nutrient spraying and crop monitoring. This harmonious 'fusion approach' emerges as a panacea for addressing multifaceted challenges in agriculture.
In a groundbreaking initiative, India is seamlessly integrating cutting-edge technology with traditional agricultural practices, charting a course towards a more sustainable and resilient future. This innovative fusion aims to harness the benefits of technological advancements while preserving the essence of age-old farming wisdom. Precision farming techniques, coupled with smart agriculture practices, are at the forefront of this transformative journey. Farmers are leveraging data-driven insights, sensors, and automation to optimise resource utilisation, monitor crop health, and streamline cultivation processes. This not only boosts yields but also minimises environmental impact through precise resource application.
