every month), Mission for Integrated Development of Horticulture
(MIDH) and the push for smart agriculture through emerging
technologies such as precision farming, crop management and
AgriTech.
With India's agriculture exports touching a record high of USD 50
Bn on the back of highest ever exports in rice, wheat, sugar and
marine products, India is fast emerging as a reliable supplier of
food staples, especially wheat to fulfill the supply gap created by
the Russia-Ukraine crisis. While the healthy growth in agri-exports
is a welcome develop-ment, it also highlights the need for stronger
industry-academic collaboration if India wants to solidify its position
as a reliable supplier of food items and emerge as a hub of
agricultural exports. This will be further deepened by better R&D
and innovation, leading to diversi-fication and competitiveness in a
sector at the cusp of transformation. To this end, this year's budget
announcements for the agriculture sector such as higher budgetary
allocations to fisheries, animal husbandry and dairy segments, the
national mission on oilseeds, the National Beekeeping Honey
Mission (NBHM) and the efforts to promote natural, zero-budget
and chemical-free farming, will all go a long way in not only
diversifying the basket of Indian agricultural products but also
enhancing their quality and providing better income opportunities
for farming communities.
This article has highlighted the main aspects of Indian
agriculture's journey since 1947, when the nation gained
independence, and the rapid strides it has made in this sector,
leading to better social and economic development indicators. Yet,
with this dynamic nation's high-growth and skill rates, this sector
has struggled to keep up. Conse-quently, the recent years have
focused on making agriculture an attractive, competitive sector of
the economy. This has been done through initiatives across
multiple levels including intro-ducing technology and innova-tion in
EN 8/3 agricultural practices to boost quantity and quality, promoting green
and smart agriculture,
diversifying the sector through
national missions on
horticulture, edible oils and
enhancing the sector's
competitiveness through
ambitious agricultural exports.
All these reforms will not only
benefit the consumer and the
farmer, but also create a ripple-
effect and make agriculture an
attractive employment destina-
tion for millions of young
Indians including startup
entrepreneurs and innovators
while at the same time
ensuring that our agri-practices
are climate-friendly and
sustainable in the long run.
