Overview

Agriculture is the largest employer in the world because almost all industries depend on agricultural raw products. Agriculture plays a vital role in India's economy. In India 54.6% of the population engaged in agriculture and allied sector activities. India is the world's largest producer of milk, pulses and jute, and ranks as the second largest producer of rice, wheat, sugarcane, groundnut, vegetables, fruit and cotton. It is also one of the leading producers of spices, fish, poultry, livestock and plantation crops. As per FAO of the United Nations, India has gained a self-sufficiency in agricultural production, but it still is a home for around 25% of the world's hungry people and there are over 190 million undernourished people in our country. While agriculture in India has achieved grain self-sufficiency but the production is, resource intensive. The main reason for this issue is the lack of technology and awareness in farming. In this 21st century, technology has created a major impact in each domain and agriculture is one of them.
