2. Agriculture is the back bone of I ndian economy. With the increasing yield of population the traditional trend of agriculture is changing day by day and becoming a business- oriented sector. To cope with the growing population improved techniques of cultivation have developed.

3. MODERN TECHNIQUES OF CULTIVATION HYBRIDIZATION BUDDING LAYERING GRAFTING MICROPROPAGATION SEED AND SOWING TECHNIQUE CROPPING SYSTEM AND CROP ROTATION MONOCULTURE IRRIGATION TECHNOLOGIES USE OF SYNTHETIC PEST CONTROL

4. It involves the production of plants from very small plant parts ,tissues or cell grown in a test tube or other container where the environment and nutrition can be rigidly controlled. MICROPROPAGATION

5. Optimum time sowing Depth of sowing Method of sowing SEED AND SOWING TECHNIQUE

6. When one crop is grown alone in a field, it is called a monoculture. Mono culture make it easier to cultivate, sow seed, control weeds and harvest as well as expand the size of the farm operation and improvement aspect of farm operation profitability and cost. monoculture

7. Very dramatic yield increases occurs with the application of synthetic chemical fertilizers. Recently easy to manufacture or mine, to transport, and to apply, fertilizer use has increased from five to ten times what it was at the end of second world war. Use of synthetic fertilizers

8. Irrigation technologies

9. To increase the production, high yielding hybrid varieties with short duration are to be used. A considerable efforts have been taken to incorporate resistance and quality into the new variety. Use of hybrid varieties
