A Survey on Advancements in Agriculture and Food Technologies

Abstract

Before some year maximum percentage of Indian economy used to come from agriculture. But since few years economic contribution of agriculture to India’s GDP (gross domestic product) is declining slowly with the country’s broad based economic growth. Despite of that agriculture is still demographically the broadest economic sector and plays a significant role in the overall socioeconomic fabric of India. The paper presents various techniques that can be used by the farmer in order to increase the productivity of their crops and there in an increase the capital. One of which is an agricultural application which can help farmers to take profitable decision’s and provides a farmer important information which is needed during the entire farming cycle. Usually along with some static information like some primary knowledge of the crop, there is also need of dynamic information such as market price of products and current production level, this can be provided with the help of agriculture application. Now a day’s world is getting automated by using advancement’s in technology same is needed in agricultural field. This paper presents the use of ICT (Information and communication technology) in the agriculture sector which shows the way to the farmer in rural areas to change some of the traditional techniques. This paper presents some technologies which reduces the flaws of conventional agriculture by using advanced water resources like various irrigation techniques and reduce the cost of labour.
