Improve Indian agriculture

Indian farmers are highly dependent on rainfall and all activities of agriculture starting from sowing to post harvest are affected either directly or indirectly by weather especially by rainfall. In the vagaries of weather condition and make it us suitable condition for cultivation to utilize such type of soil for improving the agricultural activity without any yield reduction.

In Indian agricultural farming, numerous drudgery prone activities are involved. Rice uprooting and transplanting are the most common example of these kinds of drudgery prone activities. Indian farmers are highly associated with these tasks and they perform a sequential work through manual efforts. In some areas of India, the improved method of uprooting and transplanting are being used but due to lack of awareness and information manual performance of these activities are much common.

Sustainable agricultural intensification through integrated disease management (IDM) approaches is considered to be the most powerful tool for any developing country. The principles and components of integrated disease management approaches are crudely followed sustainable agriculture for our future generation and better soil health. These approaches must be incorporate into our farming system for better food security, armouring biodiversity and improving climate resilience.

Green Revolution has made to improve agricultural production and productivity. Along with that, it caused severe stress on soil fertility, decreased chemical efficiency, failure of overall crop yield. As a result of the above factors, the farmer becomes more miserable year by year and induced them to commit suicide. This paper attempts to bring together the present status of organic farming in the World and India. The greater extent of organic agricultural land is occupied by Australia (35.65 million hectares).

The present study was conducted during kharif, 2012 and 2013 at ICAR-Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi to find out the effect of moisture management and zinc fertilization on performance of pearlmillet under rainfed conditions. Results of two year study showed considerable improvement in growth and productivity of pearlmillet. Flat bed with 5.0 t/ha crop residue recorded significantly higher plant height, dry matter accumulation, number of earheads, grain weight per earhead, yield and profitability as compared to flat bed without crop residue and flat bed with 2.

The human population continues to grow steadily with the shrinking resources being used for agricultural production situates great challenge against Indian agricultural system to attain food and environmental security. To counter these twin challenges in the country there is urgent need of application of modern Hi-tech technologies for enhancing the productivity and sustainability of the rice-wheat system for long term on scientific basis. Precision farming (PF) looks a win-win technology towards improving the capability of agricultural land to produce crops on sustainable basis.

Pastures in Indian Himalayas are based largely on annual and perennial temperate species that are rich in biodiversity but have less productivity. The main temperate grass and legume species prevalent are perennial ryegrass, tall fescue, festulolium hybrid, red and white clovers. Fescue grass consists of two agriculturally important forage crops, hexaploid tall fescue and diploid meadow fescue. Ryegrass contains two widely cultivated temperate species, Italian or annual ryegrass and perennial ryegrass. Both species are naturally diploid and are closely related to fescues.

Rural Indian women are extensively involved in agricultural activities. Grain cleaning and grading for women in rural area is a big problem because they use traditional sieve for cleaning and grading manually in sitting posture. This posture increases the fatigue and drudgery of farm women while cleaning and grading which results in aches and pains in the back and cervical region. This is time consuming method and output realized is less.

Agriculture, with its allied sectors, is unquestionably the largest livelihood provider in India; more so in the vast rural India. Agriculture plays a vital role in Indian economy. Government has set a target of doubling of farmer’s income by the year 2022 as well as Agriculture export policy has set a target to increase agricultural exports to over US$ 60 billion by 2022. The digital technology can play a transformational role in modernizing and organizing how rural India performs its agricultural activities.

Vegetable crops comprise a major part in Indian agriculture in terms of providing food and nutritional security. Recommended per day consumption of vegetables is 300 g. In recent past, Indian agriculture has witnessed a tremendous progress in vegetable production, due to the advent of high yielding varieties and new technologies. Vegetables are important sources of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients of medicinal and therapeutic value. Due to the percent of low germination rate and seedling emergence yield of the crops decreasing day by day.
