This project is a which is about advanced technologies that should be used or is being used by Indian farmers to increase their yield. Th topic of project was based on Atma Nirbhar Bharat based on agriculture.

3. INTRODUCTION
India is an agricultural economy and agriculture plays an important role in
its day to day life. The Indian economy and the Indian population is fully
dependent on Indian agriculture. The Indian agriculture has been making
significant progress in the past few years and in order to keep this
progress consistent the agricultural system of India needs to adapt to
some advanced technologies in order to increase the yield of their crops.
We shall discuss about three of these advanced technologies in the coming
slides.

4. HYV SEEDS
HYV Seeds also known as Genetically Modified Seeds or High Yielding Variety seeds are
seeds of better quality than normal quality of seeds. The produce of these seeds are more
than the produce of normal seeds. These seed are a better option over normal seeds
because HYV seeds have more probability of growing up into a healthy and surplus crop.
These seeds have good immunity and immune system to fight with insects, pests and other
diseases. Another, interesting feature of this seed is that they need very lees irrigation
care. These seeds were first introduced in India by M.S. Swaminathan during the Green
Revolution of India. During the present times most farmers in India are using these types
of seeds which gives them not only better yield but surplus yields also which can be sold at
a good price in the market thus not only giving profit to the farmers of India but also
increasing the agricultural economy of our country.

5. GIS System Based Agriculture
As, farm fields are location based, GIS(Geographic Information System) System Based
agriculture has become an incredibly useful tool in farming and agriculture. Through GIS
System Based Agriculture farmers can use the GIS system/software to map current and
future changes in precipitation, temperature, crop yields, plant health and so on. It also
enables the use of GPS based applications in line with smart machinery to optimize
fertilizer and pesticide application. This type of system usage in farms helps the farmers
to achieve conservation of money, effort and time. Another great benefit of GIS based
agriculture is the application of drones and satellite based imagery which help in the
collection of valuable data such as vegetation growth, soil conditions, weather and terrain
which will help the farmers to decide which type of crop to grow which will help them to
achieve better yields. This type of system is not used by Indian farmers currently but they
should adapt to such type of technology in order to increase their yield and produce.

6. CROP SENSORS
Crop sensors are a type of sensor system present in farms that help farmers to apply
fertilizers in a very effective manner, maximizing uptake. The system sense how your crop
is feeling and how is its growth and advices you to apply fertilizers to your crops
accordingly. Instead of making a prescription fertilizer map for the field before you go out
to apply it to your crops, the system tells the application requirement of each crop as to
apply how much fertilizer to a respective crop in real time. The optical sensors present in
this system are able see and sense how much fertilizer a plant may need, based on the light
reflected back to the sensor. This type of technology is also not used in India till date but
farmers must try to adapt to this type of system in order to use fertilizers in a required
amount as much as needed by the crop in order to stop soil degradation and salinization
caused by excessive use of fertilizers and keep their soil fertile so as to get better and
surplus yields.
