Role of Modern Technology in Agriculture
The role of modern technology is significant in agricultural development ; and with the advent of digital technology, the scope has widened. Innovation is leading to an evolution in agricultural practices, reducing losses and increasing efficiency, leading to increased income of the farming community. Introduction
Technology in agriculture affects many areas of agriculture. India managed to achieve self-sufficiency in foodgrain production by leveraging modern methods of agriculture like chemical fertilizers and pesticides, higher quality seeds, and proper irrigation . Hence, to enhance crop yields, farmers must keep themselves abreast with the cutting-edge methods of farming. Importance Of Modern Technology In Agriculture In India Watch Complete Video Here
Uses Of Modern Technology In Agriculture In India Improved Productivity Climate/ Weather Prediction Resilient Crops Developed Agriculture Sensors Improving Farm Yields & Supply Chain Management Livestock Monitoring Monitor & Control Crop Irrigation Systems Usage Of Mobile Technology & Cameras
Uses Of Modern Technology In Agriculture In India Improved productivity from the mechanization of agriculture – Agricultural mechanization has the potential to, directly and indirectly, , improve yields through a reduction in post-harvest losses and increased harvest gains. Climate / weather prediction through artificial intelligence – Technologies based on AI can bring precision to large-scale farming and lead to an exponential rise in productivity . Resilient crops developed via the use of biotechnology – There is no doubt that the future of agriculture is heavily dependent on SAFE biotechnology, given the changing climate and increase in population . Agriculture Sensors – Sensors allow farmers to maximize yields using minimal natural resources .
Uses Of Modern Technology In Agriculture In India Improving farm yields and supply chain management using Big Data – Decision-making/problem-solving is expanding the way big data functions . Livestock monitoring – This helps control and improve the quality of the meat . Monitor And Control Crop Irrigation Systems Through Smartphone - Plays a significant role in monitoring and controlling crop irrigation systems . Usage of mobile technology and cameras - Some farmers leverage apps and have cameras installed to keep an eye on their employees.
Having a range of technologies enables the transition of modern agriculture in the field. T here are many promising trends and pilot projects in modern technology in agriculture . Impact Of Modern Technology In Agriculture
