Today we had a great session on agriculture, natural gas & cloud computing etc. by Chief Mentor Sandeep Manudhane {PROTON business school,Indore } the magazine "The economist". I wrote a blog on Agriculture for its opportunity & problems in India in this sector.As sir told us that China started its success path of revolutionary by growth in agriculture first, second revolution of industry & in future concentrate on service sector.
But in India first biggest revolutionary of industry from 1990's then service's & in future would be agriculture revolution. China controlled there poverty first then went for development.So for removing the poverty, we have to concentrate on agriculture advancement then we can think of supper power.
As we all know that more than 65 % of population of India living in villages, they basically depend there livelihood on agriculture & related to it.But science Independence of 60's years we are not well self-sufficient as good as other countries. Might be government providing lots of subsidies to the farmers.We could not forget the Mr. swami Nathan, who improved somehow the condition of agriculture.
As given in The Economist that politicians only taking the credit of enormous population in rural is only for "There vote note for the Growth". Ashok Gulat of the International Food Policy Research Institute points out that an additional spent on agriculture research yields 9.5 rupee output compared to .85 rupees of output on spent on subsidies.
India also a 2nd-biggest exporter of cotton & 3rd -biggest producers of potatoes in the world. As given an example of McDonald's (first entered in India 1996) :for fries, supply chain begins with 2000 acres of potato fields in Gujarat cultivated by 400 farmers under contract with McChain Foods. Other examples are :Nestle, Unilever, schreber International & Pepsi starting doing business with Dynamix Dairy In India.
So now I am going to summarize & some suggestion from my side,for the betterment in the agriculture:-
- Maximum use of new technology & new Technic of farming.
- Maximum utilization of irrigation in farming field & if possible by dropping way
- Use of hybrid seeds which gives thrice of productivity as of now in same field as in other country.
- Increasing the Investment of private companies according to govt. rule in agriculture
- Make more Dams & rivers to minimize the problems of irrigation
- There should be Time-To-Time (T.T.T.) training school for the illiterate farmers Give the good value of crops to the farmers
- There should be good consulting firms & talented doctors for the specific crop.
- Government should give the agricultural instruments in compare of Monterey subsidies
- To motivate the youth to utilize there interest & skill in related field of agriculture
