  • Abstract:
  • Agriculture is the backbone of the Indian economy. Besides ensuring food security for its 1.45 billion strong population, it is also the largest provider of employment. India has the highest percentage of land under cultivation globally and is one of the leading producers of rice, milk and wheat. Despite this, India’s poor ranking on food sustainability indices and the 2023 Global Hunger Index ranking India 111 out of 125 countries, emphasise the agricultural distress that repeated economic surveys have been highlighting. There is an urgent need to reinvigorate the Indian agricultural sector as it directly impacts the rural economy. This paper explores for AI can be used effectively for reviving and strengthening Indian agriculture and the challenges that need to be overcome for it to work seamlessly.
