3. Analysis of agricultural productivity in india
Comparision of indian agricultural productivity
with global agricultural productivity
Reasons for slow growth of productivity
Need for immediate upliftment of productivity
Our research based ways to boost productivity
4. India ‘s population is 1.31billion as of 2013. 67% are rural
and Majority are in agriculture.
There is an utter importance of agriculture in Indian
economy although it contributes only 15% of GDP, the
share of workers is about 55%.
Major crops are rice, wheat, maize, coarse cereals,
groundnut, cotton, sugarcane, fruits and vegetables.
60% of cultivated area is “rainfed” and only 40% of area
is under irrigation.
Rural poverty is 41%in 2004-05.
5. Contributes 24% of GDP
Provides food to 1Billion people
Sustains 65% of the population : helps alleviate poverty
Produces 51 major Crops
Provides Raw Materials to Industries
Contributes 1/6th of the export earnings

11. India ranks among the lowest countries in the world
on productivity of most major crops.
Huge waste of water resources damaging crop
productivity, increasing soil salinity and aggravating
water shortages -- 80% of India’s water use is for
irrigation.

13. What are the reasons for slow growth in agri. during
mid-1990s to mid-2000s
Steering Group for 11th Plan has estimated sources of
growth
Sources of growth: Five factors: (a) Public invest.
(b) private invest. (c) Technology; (d)
diversification (e) fertilizer
There has been slowdown in all these factors
Terms of trade also declined
Higher growth in the post-reform period only in the
case of agricultural credit
14. Agriculture must continue to satisfy the demands of a
complex global market

17. Reduction of the present rate of degradation and loss
of productivity due to erosion,salinization,water
logging etc
By using Advanced Agricultural Technology (ATT)
By using organic agriculture
Reduction of environmental impacts of new
technologies
Conduct more international agricultural summits
18. By reducing wastage of water using for irrigation
Reformation of policies relating to water management
Provision of governmental guidance and regulation
Attracting farmers with situational benefits and
providing them moral support.
Improving the distribution of agricultural products
Include separate bill in parliament on agricultural
benefits
19. From degradation to
carbon sequestration..
From pollution to
biogas and clean
water..
From desertification to

20. Organic agriculture is a production system
that sustains the health of soils, ecosystems
and people.
It relies on ecological processes, biodiversity
and cycles adapted to local conditions,
rather than the use of inputs with adverse
effects.
Organic agriculture combines tradition,
innovation and science to benefit the shared
environment and promote fair relationships
and a good quality of life for all involved.
Developing organic agriculture
24. Government has to add a special internship to
agricultural students at least for 6 months
During that period , every student should serve on
countryside which includes educating farmers about
his/her ‘thesis’ and new ways of profit earning
agricultural techniques
We should not depend only on rainfall for irrigation
but should initiate techniques like cloud seeding,cloud
distro techniques etc..and also nationalize the certain
dams to provide necessary water.
