India has a wider consumer base India is the, Worlds largest producer of milk, jute and pulses World's second largest cattle population with 175 million animals Worlds second largest producer of rice, wheat, sugarcane, cotton etc Worlds second largest fruit and vegetable producer Worlds second largest producer and also consumer of silk in the world World's third largest fishing industry These are the outcome of priority given to Agriculture in our Five years plans 5. What are the priorities before India? What is the way out? For this, India need to work simultaneously on both Quantity and Quality in the process of Massive and Intense expansion of base of Higher education embedded with research as an essential factor. But, how??? That itself is a challenge Think +ve But India is heading towards it. 6. WHYthe people are migrating from rural area to urban? RIGHT MAN IS NOT HAVING A RIGHT JOB 7. DEDICATE YOUR LIFE FOR HIGHER PURPOSE TO ACHIVE IN AGRICULTURE WHAT I WILL BE EXPEREINCED IF I AM AN AGRIEDUCATED INDIAN AGRICULTURE WILL BE OUR FUTURE 8. Agriculture can be turned as driving force in Indian economy .But we need to know its shortcomings and think to address them 9. 1. Slow agricultural growth where two-thirds of Indias people depend on rural employment for a living. 2. Current agricultural practices are neither economically profitable nor environmentally sustainable 3. India's yields for many agricultural commodities are 30% to 50% than the maximum global average 4. Poorly maintained irrigation systems and lower efficiency in using available water resources. Scientific cultivation is not happening 5. Inertia of Indian agriculturists for adoption of modern technology To Turn Agriculture as a driving force in Indian economy We need to know realities and work on them 10. 6. Lack of good extension services and marketing knowledge 7. Poor roads, market infrastructure, middle mans exploitation, excessive regulation. 8. No match between Growth in agriculture produce and population 9. The low productivity and lack of efficiency due to large agricultural subsidies 10. Inefficient Public Distribution System adds inflation and increases burden on Indian economy 11. ROLE OF SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES TEACHERS GOVERNMENT PARENTS FINANCIAL INSTITUTION SOCIAL ORGANISATION 12. What we do after comeing back from school/college/University 13. If they dont join school/college/University 14. My Suggestions... Youth should take part in making NGOs for the development of agriculture. Government should develop agricultural industry in villages for better employment chances for Rural Youth and Agric production Youth should fully concentrate on their study. Highly educated peoples should stay in their villages and should not migrate to cities. 15. Government promote positive activities so that youth should not involve in bad activities. Rural youth should help their parents in agricultural activities and take interest in getting more agricultural knowledge Government should start still more various developmental programmes for the betterment of Rural Youth. Technical and vocational agri institutes should be established in villages for the training of Rural Youth. There should be good transport facilities for Youth so they go easily to educational/vocational institutes which are far from villages 16. Let us have small talk, smart, confident and focused which we can Walk the Talk ThanQ
