Agriculture in india
Introduction:- Agriculture · In spite of the advances made in agriculture, many people around the world still go hungry. Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant. The history of agriculture In India dates back to the Neolithic. India ranks second worldwide in farm outputs. As per the Indian economic survey 2018, agriculture employed more than 50% of the Indian workforce and contributed 17–18% to the country’s GDP. Definition of farmer:- For the purpose of this Policy, the term “FARMER” will refer to a person actively engaged in the economic and/or livelihood activity of growing crops and producing other primary agricultural commodities and will include all agricultural operational holders, cultivators, agricultural labourers, sharecroppers, tenants, poultry and livestock rearers, fishers, beekeepers, gardeners, pastoralists, non-corporate planters and planting labourers, as well as persons engaged in various farmingrelated occupations such as sericulture, vermiculture, and agro-forestry. The term will also include tribal families / persons engaged in shifting cultivation and in the collection, use and sale of timber and non-timber forest produce. Overview:- As per the 2014 FAO world agriculture statistics India is the world’s largest producer of many fresh fruits like banana, mango, guava, papaya, lemon and vegetables like chickpea, okra and milk, major spices like chili pepper, ginger, fibrous crops such as jute, staples such as millets and castor oil seed. India is the second largest producer of wheat and rice, the world’s major food staples. India is currently the world’s second largest producer of several dry fruits, agriculture-based textile raw materials, roots and tuber crops, pulses, farmed fish, eggs, coconut, sugarcane and numerous vegetables. India is ranked under the world’s five largest producers of over 80% of agricultural produce items, including many cash crops such as coffee and cotton, in 2010. India is one of the world’s five largest producers of livestock and poultry meat, with one of the fastest growth rates, as of 2011. History:- According to some scientists agriculture was widespread in the Indian peninsula, 10000–3000 years ago, well beyond the fertile plains of the north. For example, one study reports 12 sites in the southern Indian states of Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka providing clear evidence of agriculture of pulses Vigna radiata and Macrotyloma uniflorum, millet-grasses (Brachiaria ramosa and Setaria verticillata), wheats (Triticum dicoccum, Triticum durum/aestivum), barley (Hordeum vulgare), hyacinth bean (Lablab purpureus), sorghum (Sorghum bicolor), pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum), finger millet (Eleusine coracana), cotton (Gossypium sp.), linseed (Linum sp.), as well as gathered fruits of Ziziphus and two Cucurbitaceae. In the years since its independence, India has made immense progress towards food security. Indian population has tripled, and food-grain production more than quadrupled. There has been a substantial increase in available food-grain per capita.Before the mid-1960s, India relied on imports and food aid to meet domestic requirements. However, two years of severe drought in 1965 and 1966 convinced India to reform its agricultural policy and that it could not rely on foreign aid and imports for food security. India adopted significant policy reforms focused on the goal of food grain self-sufficiency. This ushered in India’s Green Revolution. It began with the decision to adopt superior yielding, disease resistant wheat varieties in combination with better farming knowledge to improve productivity. The state of Punjab led India’s green revolution and earned the distinction of being the country’s breadbasket. The Initial increase in production was centred on the irrigated areas of the states of Punjab, Haryana and western Uttar Pradesh. With the farmers and the government officials focusing on farm productivity and knowledge transfer, India’s total food grain production soared. Agricultural scientist MS Swaminathan has played a vital role in the green revolution. In 2013, NDTV named him one of 25 living legends of India for outstanding contributions to agriculture and making India a food-sovereign country. Two states, Sikkim and Kerala have planned to shift fully to organic farming by 2015 and 2016 respectively. Irrigation:- Indian irrigation infrastructure includes a network of major and minor canals from rivers, groundwater well-based systems, tanks, and other rainwater harvesting projects for agricultural activities. Of these, the groundwater system is the largest Of the 160 million hectares of cultivated land in India, about 39 million hectare can be irrigated by groundwater wells and an additional 22 million hectares by irrigation canals.In 2010, only about 35% of agricultural land in India was reliably irrigated.About 2/3rd cultivated land in India is dependent on monsoons.The improvements in irrigation infrastructure in the last 50 years have helped India improve food security, reduce dependence on monsoons, improve agricultural productivity and create rural job opportunities. Output:- As of 2011, India had a large and diverse agricultural sector, accounting, on average, for about 16% of GDP and 10% of export earnings. India’s arable land area of 159.7 million hectares (394.6 million acres) is the second’largest in the world, after the United States.India is among the top three global producers of many crops, including wheat, rice, pulses, cotton, peanuts, fruits and vegetables. Worldwide, as of 2011, India had the largest herds of buffalo and cattle, is the largest producer of milk and has one of the largest and fastest growing poultry industries. Horticulture:- The total production and economic value of horticultural produce, such as fruits, vegetables and nuts has doubled in India over the 10-year period from 2002 to 2012. In 2012, the production from horticulture exceeded grain output for the first time. The total horticulture produce reached 277.4 million metric tonnes in 2013, making India the second largest producer of horticultural products after China. Organic agriculture:- Organic agriculture has fed India for centuries and it is again a growing sector in India. Organic production offers clean and green production methods without the use of synthetic fertilisers and pesticides and it achieves a premium price in the market place. India has 6,50,000 organic producers, which is more than any other country. Agriculture based cooperatives:-India has seen a huge growth in cooperative societies, mainly in the farming sector, since 1947 when the country gained independence from Britain. The country has networks of cooperatives at the local, regional, state and national levels that assist in agricultural marketing. The commodities that are mostly handled are food grains, jute, cotton, sugar, milk, fruit and nuts ,Support by the state government . Sugar industry:- Most of the sugar production in India takes place at mills owned by local cooperative societies.The members of the society include all farmers, small and large, supplying sugarcane to the mill. Marketing:- As with sugar, cooperatives play a significant part in the overall marketing of fruit and vegetables in India. Since the 1980s, the amount of produce handled by Cooperative societies has increased exponentially. Common fruit and vegetables marketed by the societies include bananas, mangoes, grapes, onions and many others. Dairy industry:- Dairy farming based on the Amul Pattern, with a single marketing cooperative, is India’s largest self-sustaining industry and its largest rural employment provider. Successful implementation of the Amul model has made India the world’s largest milk producer. Banking and rural credit:- Cooperative banks play a great part in providing credit in rural parts of India. Just like the sugar cooperatives, these institutions serve as the power base for local politicians. Problems:- Slow agricultural growth is a concern for policymakers as some two-thirds of India’s people depend on rural employment for a living. Current agricultural practices are neither economically nor environmentally sustainable and India’s yields for many agricultural commodities are low. Poorly maintained irrigation systems and almost universal lack of good extension services are among the factors responsible. Farmers’ access to markets is hampered by poor roads, rudimentary market infrastructure, and excessive regulation.” The biggest problem of farmers is the low price for their farm produce. A recent study showed that proper pricing based on energy of production and equating farming wages to Industrial wages may be beneficial for the farmers. Initiatives:- The required level of investment for the development of marketing, storage and cold storage infrastructure is estimated to be huge. The government has not been able to implement schemes to raise investment in marketing infrastructure. Among these schemes are ‘Construction of Rural Godowns’, ‘Market Research and Information Network’, and ‘Development / Strengthening of Agricultural Marketing Infrastructure, Grading and Standardisatioand The Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), established in 1905, was responsible for the search leading to the “Indian Green Revolution” of the 1970s. The ICAR is the apex body in agriculture and related allied fields, including research and education. The Indian Agricultural Statistics Research Institute develops new techniques for the design of agricultural experiments, analyses data in agriculture, and specialises in statistical techniques for animal and plant breeding. Agriculture and Indian economy:- The contributions of agriculture in the Indian economy have been increasing over the years. According to the economic survey, the share of agriculture in gross domestic product (GDP) reached almost 20% for the first time in 17 years, making a sole bright spot in performance during financial year 2020–2021. Government schemes:- 2020 Indian agriculture acts Atal Bhujal Yojana E-NAM for online agrimarketing Gramin Bhandaran Yojana for local storage Micro Irrigation Fund (MIF) National Mission For Sustainable Agriculture (NMSA) National Scheme on Fisheries Training and Extension National Scheme on Welfare of Fishermen Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PMKSN) for minimum support scheme Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchai Yojana (PMKSY) for irrigation Paramparagat Krishi Vikas Yojana (PKVY) for organic farming Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY) for crop insurance. Conclusion of agriculture in india:- The agricultural sector is of vital importance for the region. It is undergoing a process of transition to a market economy, with substantial changes in the social, legal, structural, productive and supply set-ups, as is the case with all other sectors of the economy.

What is the importance of recycling? More and more people recycle everyday. This helps to reduce the need for landfill and more costly forms of disposal. Recycling also reduces the need for extracting (mining, quarrying and logging), refining and processing raw materials all of which create substantial air and water pollution. What type of waste can be recycled?What Can Be Recycled Curbside,Paper including newspapers, magazines, and mixed paper.Cardboard (OCC) ,Glass bottles and jars.Rigid plastic products.Metal containers, including tin, aluminum, and steel cans.Food waste, if your city has an organics collection program. Is recycling good for the environment? Recycling also conserves resources and protects the environment. Environmental benefits include reducing the amount of waste sent to landfills and combustion facilities; conserving natural resources, such as timber, water and minerals; and preventing pollution by reducing the need to collect new raw materials. What will happen if we don’t recycle? Recycling helps to conserve natural resources by reducing the demand for new raw materials. Without recycling, it would put more pressure on the world’s finite resources, such as forests, fossil fuels, minerals, and water. This could lead to resource depletion and environmental degradation. What is the history of recycling? The evolution of recycling dates back to 1776, when patriots pulled down a statue of King George III, melted it down and used it to create 42,088 bullets during The American War of Independence. Paper was also recycled as a vital commodity, due to lack of raw materials. What is the most recycled waste? Steel. The most recyclable material on the globe is steel. Recycled steel only accounts for about 40% of the total amount of steel produced, even though more steel is created than is destroyed, resulting in a 60% recycling rate. Each year, 1085 million tons of steel are recycled. Why is recycling important 10 points? It is critical to recycle and minimize the amount of waste we are putting into the atmosphere. Doing so can help save energy, reduce landfill waste, and protect our environment. Recycling brings communities together and helps people raise money for schools, colleges, hospitals, and more. Conclusion:- What is the conclusion of recycling? Together we must reduce, reuse and recycle. We can reduce by purchasing items with the least amount of packaging and buying in bulk when appropriate. We can reuse by avoiding disposable items. Finally we can recycle by using community recycling programs and purchasing products made form recycled materials. Thanks a lot, Sanju Shrivastav .
