Overview
India is still far behind major economies in terms of
crop-yields and therefore, needs to adopt measures
to increase its productivity so as to meet the needs of
an ever-increasing population. The table below
explain.
It is established that the judicious use of crop
protection/ enhancement chemicals significantly
enhance agricultural productivity. Besides there are
other solutions such as bio-pesticides, bio-technology,
Plasticulture/ Fertigation, digital applications etc.
Fertigation/ Plasticulture enhance crop yields while at
the same time facilitating judicious usage of
pesticides/ fertilizers and water.
The greater danger for most of us is notthat our aim is too high and we miss it , but itis too low and we reach it.Michaelangelo
Yields of major crops, 2015 (Tonnes/hectare)
Agriculture sector is most important component of national
economy. It supports above 50% of rural households and
employs approx.. 80% of economically active women in the
country. As per Economic Survey of India 2016, India uses 2
to 4 times more water to produce a unit of major food crop
than does China and Brazil. The survey also notes that in
India, the farmers crop yield losses range from 15-25%
owing to the presence of weeds/pests etc as also notes
with concern the use of sub-standard pesticides.
India currently supports nearly 18% of world's
population with 2.4% land resources and 4% of water
resources. The Indian Agriculture sector is consuming
almost 80% of available water.
