Promoting Indian Agriculture

I have been thinking about writing about agriculture in India for long time. Let me go ahead and put some thoughts on the same in this post. As every Indian knows that agriculture is the backbone of India. And India is the country that exports the agriculture products to many countries today.  And hence taking advantages of today's technologies for agriculture makes lot of sense. Its very essential for the Indian Government to help Indian agriculturists to do their best. As I understand very less technology companies think towards this area. Here I am letting everyone open to comment in this post, put their ideas on agriculture as to what can benefit our formers today. 

Today, its more on Government to come forward towards forming, but the various companies. The software giants write many articles on India Forming, however, how much its applied to forming is what is not cared about. What  demotes a former is irregular rain fall. Well, as far as rain fall is concerned no one can predict.It depends on nature. I am telling this because in certain areas of India, there is no water to cultivate, at least not at the right time. This is the major hurdle where a former gets disappointed to cultivate major crops that yield some profit. However the government has not been able to raise investments in marketing infrastructure for formers till today. Its very essential that the rural infrastructures are improved greatly to harness the Indian Agriculture. 

In my opinion, non of the regions should be ignored. Its true that certain areas do better forming and certain areas do not do. It may be because of water problem, no proper irrigation systems. No proper education on forming. As today, the formers rely on government to facilitate the opportunities in forming, its the government which has to pay attention in each and every agriculture areas in India.

Everyone knows the milk prices, in spite there is huge milk production in India, there is still a shortage of it and hence every year the milk prices go high. The milk production has to be given more attention and promote people for producing more milk. The government has to give more subsidiaries and encourage people for the milk production.

There is sufficient water however its not evenly distributed. Many areas still lack proper irrigation systems. There are many rivers but the river water is not efficiently used for irrigation purposes in all the areas. Only the areas near the river get benefited out of river water. The government has to take new projects in supplying river water as many areas as possible may be through canals, lift irrigation etc. Most of the times, the river water just flows and joins the see. Why can't the same water be utilized in all the forming areas wherever possible? The river water is the only source especially in drought situations.

Few things that I would want Government is to have sufficient crop loans and more importantly insurance for the crops. Constantly identify new opportunities in forming and have subsidiaries for the formers to encourage them and take advantage of new opportunities. Have good market infrastructure to get the better prices for the forming products. This will encourage formers to do more than that they usually do. Its also true that, there are very less people who want to do forming. This is en-dangerous too. Its essential that more and more people should be encouraged to do the forming. To be frank my long term goal is to do the same.

I encourage the readers to put forth their ideas as to how India can grow more from historical agriculture.
