In India, about seventy percent of total population is
engaged in farming and other agricultural activities. India’s geographical
condition is unique for agriculture because many favourable conditions like
climate, soil etc. for farming are available here and these agriculture
products provide raw materials to a much agro-based company which are abundant
in India. Apart from soil and climatic condition every day various scientific
techniques and innovations are done for the growth of agricultural production.
Agriculture is the biggest industry in India and it also plays a key role in
the socio-economic growth of the country.
A few months ago our respected Prime Minister Mr Narendra Modi highlighted the importance of agriculture and put emphasis on science and technology used for agriculture. In July, I.C.A.R( Indian Council of Agricultural research) celebrated its eighty-sixth anniversary where our Prime Minister addressed scientists and policymakers and urged them to bring more high technology in farming with the limited resources.
Domestic production
Country of farming
Most of us have farm somewhere on our family tree. With fewer of us down on the farm, there’s also fewer that understand our culture. As a consequence of this, the young generation is getting away from agriculture and they are not able to answer the simple question, where the wheat has been produced? Raising many questions such as, are we saying goodbye to Agriculture the true culture & heritage of India?
It is very unfortunate that today’s generation is bending more towards the west and moving away from its cultural values, traditions & their roots. This is not their mistake but the mistake of those who do not enlighten their children about their roots & their rich cultural heritage.

Domestic production
This function was not only addressing the scientist but even a standing
ovation for farmers. The traditional way of farming cannot be eradicated but
practising it with scientific technology can help in production and it should
be one of the agenda for a scientist. As India is an agricultural based country
and agriculture contributes 16% of total Gross Domestic Product. Ten percent of
total export earning depends on agriculture. Thus we don’t have any choice
other than developing agriculture technique and improving crop productivity. It
is very important to invent technologies in agriculture so that our farmers can
feed India as well as the world and can also strengthen the economy of our
country.
Mr Modi even appealed the agriculture
universities to install radio of their own so that the farmers can be well
informed with all the latest technology in agriculture. Students should conduct
researchers in the lab and tell farmers how to improve the crop productivity.
This “per drop, per crop” mission statement to conserve water and appeal to
farmers and scientists to find ways and work for increasing farm productivity
through optimum utilization of scarce resources.
Development in agriculture in India
Development in agriculture in India
Development in agriculture in India is very important as our
economy depends upon it. The resources are limited so it is important to use
both traditional as well as scientific approach smartly so that productivity of
crops can be improved with the utilization of scarce resources. Well at the end
all I can say that guys common stand up as farmers deserve standing ovation as
they are one who feeds us. It is their labour that we enjoy.
It is very rightly said that in India agriculture has its own special place as it is not practised as a mere profession but as a culture and tradition. It should be respected by one and all and everyone should take an oath to conserve the resources used for farming for better productivity and make India such a country that the whole world depends on it to fulfil its hunger.

India is a culturally diverse country where people of various
religions with different traditions, values, beliefs, arts &
professions live together like family which makes Indian society popular
worldwide and considered as one of the most cultured society.
The majority of this culturally diverse population of India still depends on ‘agriculture’ –its first culture; making India unique in its own way. This holds true as almost all cultural traditions, arts, music has its agrarian inspiration, source and origin, and hence Agriculture is not a mere business but is still the “True Culture of India.”

Agriculture is a way of life the India people
live: with its values, beliefs, behaviors, and symbols that they agree to take
rationally and pass it from one generation to the other. It is a culture of
working together.
Agriculture has a deep sense of oneness and attachment with
family, selflessness in relations, which is not seen in other countries.We have a strong agricultural heritage we inherited from
our ancestors. Much of this tradition is still passed down today from parents
to children and is a unique culture on its own.
India is a farming country, and there’s honesty here. Farmers live
and breathe farming along with their family & they love it. Farming has
helped us retain our ancestral values. It teaches us to help our neighbours and
anyone else who needs support. It includes being sensitive towards their
animals and selfless care for them. We learn practices that conserve water and
keep the soil fertile. We also learn to stand united with our families
irrespective of the unpredictive yield.
As much as farming is about passing on skills to the next
generation, it’s even more about passing on the attitudes and attributes that
make a farmer adaptable, inventive, and ethical whether it is ploughed by an ox
or 50 BHP tractor.
Most of us have farm somewhere on our family tree. With fewer of us down on the farm, there’s also fewer that understand our culture. As a consequence of this, the young generation is getting away from agriculture and they are not able to answer the simple question, where the wheat has been produced?

Who is supposed to correct this? We have to correct this, and
protect our environment, encourage organic farming, and teach our children
about values in life. Native communities have to revive land, water, seeds, and
traditional food and farming practices, thereby putting the
life back in agriculture.
These ideas are not an alternative for us; these are just a way of our life… We all need to work together as Indians.We have to make all the efforts to preserve our identity through agriculture and get back our diminishing culture.
