Agriculture is the backbone of the Indian economy, with 70% of the population engaged in it. Different types of agriculture practiced in India include subsistence and commercial farming, intensive and extensive farming, plantation farming, and mixed farming. Major crops include food crops like rice and wheat, cash crops like cotton and sugarcane, oilseeds, pulses, and plantation crops like tea and coffee. Challenges facing Indian agriculture include stagnating production of major crops, high costs of farm inputs, soil exhaustion, depletion of groundwater, impacts of climate change, and effects of globalization.
1. The document discusses different types of farming practiced in India including subsistence farming, intensive subsistence farming, commercial farming, and plantation farming.
2. It also describes the major kharif and rabi crops grown in India such as rice, wheat, millets, pulses, sugarcane, oilseeds and their climatic requirements as well as major producing states.
3. Tea is discussed as an example of plantation crop introduced in India which has tropical plantations primarily in Assam and West Bengal.
Major food crops like rice, wheat, and millets as well as commercial crops like tea, coffee, and rubber require specific climatic conditions for cultivation in India. Rice grows best in tropical and sub-tropical regions with temperatures between 20-40°C, rainfall over 100cm, and clay-rich soil. Wheat prefers temperatures around 14-18°C and rainfall between 50-100cm. Millets tolerate higher temperatures and sandy, less fertile soils. Tea needs temperatures of 21-29°C and rainfall over 150cm to grow. Coffee and rubber plantations dominate in South India, especially Karnataka, Kerala, and Tamil Nadu.
This ppt revolves about different types of farming, different seasons in which the crops are grown, information about various types of crops and their conditions for growth, technology and institutional reforms, the impact of globalisation and green revolution on agriculture, blood - gram dan, contribution and methods to develop our agriculture. This ppt is also based on the chapter four of geography class 10 book.

Agriculture x a cropping pattern and major crops (rice and wheat)ANSHULJAIN760815
The document summarizes cropping patterns in India. It discusses the three main seasons - Rabi, Kharif, and Zaid. Rabi crops like wheat and barley are grown from October to December and harvested from April to June in regions like Punjab and Haryana. Kharif crops like rice, maize, and cotton are grown with monsoon rains from June to September. Zaid crops like melons are grown between Rabi and Kharif from March to June. Rice and wheat are identified as the two major crops in India. Rice is grown mainly in northeast, coastal, and delta regions while wheat is dominant in the Ganga-Satluj plains and black soil regions.
Agriculture involves three main sectors - primary, secondary, and tertiary. The document focuses on defining different types of agriculture - subsistence and commercial farming. Subsistence farming includes shifting cultivation and nomadic herding, aimed at meeting a family's needs through low-technology methods. Commercial farming uses large plots, machinery, and crops for sale, including grain, mixed, and plantation farming. The document also outlines various crops grown worldwide, factors influencing their cultivation, and efforts to increase agricultural production.
Primitive subsistence farming and intensive subsistence farming are the main types of farming practiced in India. Crops grown depend on the monsoon and soil conditions. The government has implemented several reforms to increase agricultural production, including bhoodan-gramdan which redistributed land to landless farmers, and land reforms to limit land ownership. India produces a variety of food crops including rice, wheat, millets, pulses and oilseeds, as well as non-food crops like cotton, jute, sugarcane and tea. Major producers vary by crop and climatic conditions.
The document discusses cropping patterns and major crops in India. It outlines three cropping seasons - Rabi, Kharif, and Zaid - and their typical sowing and harvesting periods. Rabi crops like wheat and mustard are grown in winter. Kharif crops like rice, maize, and cotton are grown during the monsoon. Zaid crops such as melons and vegetables are grown in summer. It also identifies the main regions for producing Rabi and Kharif crops. The two most important crops in India are rice and wheat, with rice being a major Kharif crop grown in eastern states and wheat a primary Rabi crop in northern states.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
