Advancing growth and efficacy across the entire agribusiness value chain
Agriculture in India sustains 58% of its population and is major source of revenue in rural areas. Contributing to about 12% of the country’s GDP, the sectors performance is key to livelihood and generation of demand for products and services across the manufacturing sector. A vast geographical spread and diverse climatic conditions have helped India produce a wide variety of food grains, cash crops, fruits and vegetables.
However low mechanisation rates, smaller land sizes and traditional farming practices have led to lower productivity rates while Government policies have distorted market forces for agriculture inputs leading to overuse impacting soil health and sustainability.
There is a renewed focus on sustainability of resources- water, electricity, fertilisers, improving productivity, organics farming and improved value addition to enable farmers increase their income. Technology is expected to change the landscape by improving access to information and market.
