SOWING PROSPERITY :

BOOSTING AGRICULTURE PRODUCTION

AMIT SIHAG 9627965015 SHUBHAM AGARWAL 7275349139 ANUJ KUMAR AGARAWAL 9530492612 SAURABH KUMAR GUPTA 8410610839 SIDDHARTH GUPTA 8126833043(TEAM CO-ORDINATOR) EMAIL ID: [email protected]

PROBLEMS

Lack of Agricultural education and awareness

Obsolete machinery & farming technology

Inadequate irrigation facilities

• People being suspicious of new changes like the loan schemes introduced by the bank • Farmer receives just 10 to 23 % of the price the Indian consumer pays for exactly the

same produce below 2 % per annum

• Adoption of modern agricultural practices and use of technology is inadequate,

hampered by ignorance of such practices, high costs and impracticality in the case of small land holdings.

• 64 % of cultivated land is dependent on monsoons. & economic significance of irrigation in India is namely, to reduce over dependence on monsoons, advanced agricultural

productivity, bringing more land under cultivation

Page 3: agroworld123

Unstable policies of government

• The promises made by the govt. before the elections fades away wid their comissioningMinisters launch such trade policies where the farmers are hardly

benefitted,hence decreases their morale

Psychological attitude towards farming

Agriculture sector competes with other sectors for land when the economy moves towards industrialisation and production cost in the neighbouring countries is cheaper

Decreasing farm sizes and industrialisation

• As per young minds it is concerned that farming is for the dropouts and for poor people • Farmers are believed to be a lower strata of the society and would love to prefer white

collar jobs .

Encourage private

sector investment: introduced several incentives

example, by encouraging the

production of quality and safe

product

onnecting geographically dispersed people and enhance two-way communication.

Farmer knowledge:

Establish national network

for demonstration &

training like Central training

institutes, Satellite training

institutes, Farm Schools

Develop , E-farming --

deliver expert advice &

training via rural knowledge

centres

Reorient Agricultral

Colleges to focus on

Production

Agriculture Deep chiseling should be implemented the way it is done in U.S. which is responsible for absorbing the nutrients deeply.

Page 5: agroworld123

Doubling or tripling productivity per unit area : can reduce the cost per unit of agricultural produce to enhance farm incomes and promote international competitiveness.

Doubling or tripling farmer income by balancing plant nutrients in the soil to optimize plant intake of applied fertilisers, safeguarding the environment and reducing soil degradation.

Doubling or tripling water use efficiency and reducing salinization of irrigated lands through land preparation techniques that harvest rainwater on millions of acre while reducing waste of irrigated water.

• In India, soil is being tested for

only three nutrients.

• Without these 12 nutrients,

genetic potential of hybrid

seeds cannot be tapped.

• The same hybrid rice seed

generates 2.8 tons per hectare

in India, 5.4 tons in China & 8

tons in USA

• Strong linkage between research and field implementation &Easy access of agricultural information

• These reduction in percentage of the workforce obviously that employment in the agriculture sector contracted due to the increased use of labour-saving technologies, thus causing labour shortage as local labour force moved into economic sector for higher wages

• the beginning of mechanization in the sector and improved farm

management

• increaseS job opportunities and created alternative sources of income.

However, the total employment in the agricultural sector declined over

the years while those in manufacturing increased.

• Meets the Future Food Demands like Increase efficiency ,Produce more

food with same resources ,Conserve more natural, Produce a product

that is more affordable around the globe, Improve the lives of farmers

Profitability

IMAPCT OF PROPOSED SOLUTIONS

Challenges

2.Using electrical machines with advanced

technology instead of manpower and the

work is out with the to carried concern of

the old residents of the village who have the

knowledge of the soil affecting factors and

the land usage pattern.

1.Expensive equipments will be

imported which is a major issue

because it invoves buying of

equipments as per the dealer’s

choice along with paying different

kind of taxes

3.money must be invested by the

government in the field of

biotechnology by decreasing the

amount of investment done in the

production of artificial fertilisers and

pesticides and must replace them by

organic chemicals like in Europe

R&D is mandatory .

5.average age of living of the

farmers have reduced to 55 years

and concsecutively the suicides

have increased and hence we need

to put a strict measure by opening

small organisations consisting of

people from all the villages in india

4.Education no doubt is the backbone for a

developing country like us having thousands

of natural resources to be harnessed for a

better living where these days youth have

started refraining themselves from joining

agricultural institutes and stepping into R&D,

therefore NGO’s along with the industrialists

of our nation.

6.We must talk to IMF, World bank and

countries to libeaalise our agricultural

import and to give us subudies & provide

marketing assistance to our farmers.
