Management of Crop Quality & Productivity Using Solar Power Irrigation System

Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 2

Abstract

Energy is a key resource for the overall development of an economy. India receives 5000 Trillion kWh/year amount of solar energy with a daily average solar energy incidence of 4-7 kWh/m2. This is considerably more than the total energy consumption of the country. The demand for electrical energy is far outstripping supply, especially in the agricultural sector. It is also becoming increasingly difficult to meet the exponential growth in demand of Agricultural productivity which is closely associated to direct and indirect energy inputs. Necessary policies are required to consolidate this relationship for the benefit of farmers. The model scheme is to introduce solar water pumping and support irrigation schemes to provide a sustainable economic activity to farmers in non-electrified or under electrified rural areas.
