  • Abstract:
  • This paper is a review article on the Agricultural technologies in India. The use of agricultural technologies determines how the increase in agricultural output impacts on poverty levels and environmental degradation. The factors affecting technology adoption are assets, income, institutions, vulnerability, awareness, labour, and innovativeness by smallholder farmers. Technologies that require few assets, have a lower risk premium, and are less expensive have a higher chance of being adopted by smallholder farmers. Modern researchers should therefore seek to understand the rationale behind traditional smallholder farmer behaviour in technology use. This will make their future technological interventions in smallholder agriculture more effective.
