Around 60“ 70% of populace in India rely on the Agriculture division. In India, the water management system used in agriculture is obsolete which is causing poor usage of water resources. In some places, faulty techniques are used which results in under-usage or over-usage of water which impacts on the production of crops and decreases the yield. Not only this, proper education or knowledge is not spread to the farmers which will help them increase their production and business by knowing information regarding the soil type and moisture content which is required for a particular crop. Giving modern touch to the agriculture methods is of utmost importance because of the need in agriculture and food for the people to survive. Use of far-reaching and profound technologies such as IoT and cloud computing for modernizing and improving the traditional/ long-established/ conventional agricultural methods can control the cost, maintenance and provide greater expertise regarding production, quality of seeds, fertilizers, weed, pest control and irrigation.

The Effect of Kronecker Tensor Product Values on ECG Rates: A Study on Savitz...IIJSRJournal
This article presents a study on ECG signal filtering algorithms to denoise signals corrupted by various types of noise sources. The study also examines the effect of Kronecker tensor product values on ECG rates. The study is conducted in a Matlab environment, and the results demonstrate that a constant number for the respective codes can effectively denoise ECG signals without any trouble. These findings have significant implications for diagnosing abnormal heart rhythms and investigating chest pains. The present study is novel in that it explores the relationship between ECG rate and Kronecker delta values across different age groups, which has not been extensively studied in previous literature. The study's unique contribution is the determination of age-specific values of the constant K required to represent this relationship accurately in different populations, which could inform the development of more effective algorithms for denoising ECG signals in clinical settings. Additionally, this study's finding of an inverse relationship between ECG rate and Kronecker delta values could have broader implications for understanding the physiological factors that contribute to variability in ECG measurements. The study provides valuable insights into ECG signal processing and suggests that the implemented techniques can improve the accuracy of ECG signal analysis in real-time clinical settings. Overall, the manuscript is a valuable contribution to the field of biomedical signal processing and provides important information for researchers and healthcare professionals.

Prevalence of Trichomonas Vaginalis Infection Among Married Pregnant Women in...IIJSRJournal
A cross-sectional survey of Trichomonas vaginalis infection has been conducted among married pregnant women attending antenatal clinics, for the first time in pregnancy, the direct microscopy technique was adopted. Of the 120 pregnant women studied, 4(3.3%) were infected with T. vaginalis. Individuals age 20-25 years were most infected (3.7%). Women in their third trimester of pregnancy were significantly more infected (1.1%), than those in their second trimester (1.6%) and first trimester (2.3%). Despite reporting a low prevalence of T. vaginalis among pregnant women in the study, this does not imply completely ruling out the presence of T. vaginalis among pregnant women due to the diagnostic technique and also that even the low occurrence among pregnant women in the hospitals cannot totally explain general occurrence. T. vaginalis infection can be dangerous and poses serious threat to the health. Hence, the need for prevention of T. vaginalis and that efforts for prevention of T. vaginalis infection should be targeted at all women of child bearing age. Since T. vaginalis is primarily sexually transmitted, educational efforts must be aimed at high risk groups including women without any formal education and must be explicit regarding the behaviours that leads to the spread of T. vaginalis, and other sexually transmitted infections. There is also the need for proper counseling and education on sexual behaviour and genital hygiene which would greatly help in the prevention of the infection.
Factors Influencing Professional Project Management Ethical Practices in Buil...IIJSRJournal
Ethical practices are essential to providing quality work which cut across every sector. In building construction, adherence to project management ethical standards is essential to providing quality services that can stand the test of time. However, many building projects have been constructed with standards that are far below the professional ethics. This is evident in the cases of building failure reported throughout the country. The study examines the factors that influences project management ethical practices in Nigeria and specifically in Lagos. A total of 384 samples were selected from project stakeholders and construction professionals. A well-structured 25 items questionnaire was designed to elicit for response on ethical practices and factors that influences ethical practices. The results indicated that ethical practices in project management are influenced by various factors, including the project environment and stakeholder's impact as organizational factors. The major project-related factors that affect ethical practices are project scope and complexity, project financing, project risk, and project stakeholders, while project managers' technical skills, qualifications, and personal values have significant impacts on adherence to ethical practices. The influencing factors could be related to the organization, the project, or the professional, but in most cases, they are a combination of these factors. Therefore, it is recommended that thorough assessments are conducted before, during, and after construction, and different professionals should be assigned to ensure transparency and compliance with standards.
Assessment of Water Occupancy Rates of the Çamlıgöze Dam Lake between 2010-20...IIJSRJournal
With the increasing world population, the importance of dam lakes is increasing within the framework of more effective and efficient use of water resources. This study focuses on the water occupancy rates of Çamlıgöze Dam Lake, located in Turkey, between the years 2010-2021. The annual average water occupancy rate of Çamlıgöze Dam Lake between 2010-2021 was calculated as 69.55 percent. This shows that approximately seventy percent of Çamlıgöze Dam Lake was full between 2010-2021. According to these values, it was determined that the water occupancy rates of Çamlıgöze Dam Lake did not face a serious decrease between 2010-2021. As a result, there is no short term problem in terms of water occupancy rates in Çamlıgöze Dam Lake, but this does not mean that it will not be a problem in the long term. For this reason, it should not be abandoned to use the water of Çamlıgöze Dam Lake effectively, economically and consciously.
Sustainability of Pod Yields of Groundnut through Crop Seasonal Rainfall, Len...IIJSRJournal
A study was conducted with the objective of assessing the effect of crop seasonal rainfall and length of growing period on the sustainability of pod yields of groundnut attained in 31 mandals under arid Alfisols of Anantapur in Andhra Pradesh. We have considered the variability of mandals with regard to (i) crop seasonal rainfall (mm) and (ii) pod yield of groundnut (kg/ha) during 2001 to 2020; (iii) extent of crop area (ha) during 2009 to 2020; and (iv) length of growing period (days). Based on the mean and standard deviation (SD) of each parameter, the mandals were classified into 5 groups viz., (i) G1: Less than (Mean–2SD); (ii) G2: (Mean–2SD) to (Mean–SD); (iii) G3: (Mean–SD) to (Mean+SD); (iv) G4: (Mean+SD) to (Mean+2SD); and (v) G5: More than (Mean+2SD). Out of 31 mandals, 22 mandals for area and crop seasonal rainfall, 20 mandals for LGP and 18 mandals for yield have fallen in G3. Estimates of correlation were derived between groundnut area, crop seasonal rainfall and yield for each mandal over years and tested for significance to assess the superiority of mandals. Significant correlation of yield and crop seasonal rainfall was observed which ranged from 0.433 at Kalyandurg to 0.765 at Putlur. Similarly, significant correlation between yield and area of groundnut was observed in Kalyandurg (-0.764), Brahmasamudram (-0.674) and Rapthadu (-0.584) mandals. The predictability of yield and prediction error were derived based on a regression model of yield calibrated through the crop seasonal rainfall, LGP and crop area in different mandals. The model gave significant predictability (R2) value of 0.46 with prediction error of 90.9 kg/ha and indicated negative effect of area, positive effect of crop seasonal rainfall and LGP on yield. The sustainability yield index ranged from 26.6% (Kambadur) to 87.5% (Peddavadagur) with mean of 53.9% (CV of 30.1%) over years. Ranks were assigned to the mean and variation of area, crop seasonal rainfall, yield, LGP and SYI of each mandal and rank sums were derived. Guntakal, Gooty and Vidapanakal were superior with rank sums of 30, 38 and 70 respectively. Guntakal was superior with an area of 16570 ha (CV of 17.3%), crop seasonal rainfall of 436.1 mm (CV of 33.4%), LGP of 140 days, yield of 644 kg/ha (CV of 70.9%) and SYI of 76.5%, while Gooty was superior with area of 14146 ha (CV of 14.6%), crop seasonal rainfall of 429.6 mm (CV of 42.4%), LGP of 140 days, yield of 663 kg/ha (CV of 69.1%) and SYI of 79.1%. Similarly, Vidapanakal was superior with area of 5077 ha (CV of 31.1%), crop seasonal rainfall of 403.2 mm (CV of 47.4%), LGP of 140 days, yield of 654 kg/ha (CV of 49.5%) and SYI of 77.9%. Due to maximum LGP and crop seasonal rainfall, we recommend that the farmers of these mandals could enhance the area of groundnut and attain maximum sustainable yields under arid Alfisols.
On the Modulation of Biocompatibility of Hydrogels with Collagen and Guar Gum...IIJSRJournal
In this work, we report the synthesis of molybdenum metal-organic frameworks (Mo-MOFs) using 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid and the amino acids L-phenylalanine, L- tryptophan, and L-histidine as ligands. They were incorporated in hydrogel matrixes comprised of collagen and guar gum to obtain composite hydrogels. The effect of chemical structure of Mo-MOFs on the structure, physicochemical properties and in vitro biocompatibility of hydrogels was studied. These biomaterials showed a super absorbent performance (higher than 2000 ± 169%) and a high degree of reticulation (higher than 75 ± 6%). The microstructure of the composites showed a granular morphology with some porosity. These composites were degraded entirely by hydrolysis at pH 5 and pH 7 at room temperature in time lapses shorter than 15 days. Also, they were biocompatible with porcine dermis fibroblasts not showing cytotoxic effects up to 48 h of incubation allowing its proliferation, and it was observed that the MOF containing L-tryptophan improved notably the biocompatibility of the collagen/guar gum matrix. Finally, the matrixes were tested as vehicles for cell encapsulation and release. The slow-release rates show that fibroblasts tend to remain inside the hydrogel matrixes. Thus, these materials are more suitable for cell scaffolds and tissue engineering applications such as wound healing dressings.
Incorporation of Se (IV) Complexes based on Amino Acids in Biomatrixes in Hyd...IIJSRJournal
Selenium is a non-metal that shows biological interest since it is responsible for modulating various proteins at the micronutrient level in living beings. In this work, new complexes based on the Se (IV) ion with amino acids such as phenylalanine (Se-F), histidine (Se-H) and tryptophan (Se-T) were hydrothermally synthesized and characterized. These were incorporated into biomatrixes based on semi-interpenetrated polymeric networks (Semi-IPN) of collagen-polyurethane-guar gum (CPGG) by the microemulsion process using a mass ratio of 1 wt.% with respect to collagen. The structural and crystalline characteristics that the selenium-amino acid complexes show a performance in modulating the properties of the biomatrixes under study. The results indicate that the incorporation of the complex decreases the crosslinking of the hydrogel, generating granular surfaces with porosity dependent on the type of amino acid. The CPGG Se-T biomatrix shows a swelling capacity of 10200 ± 1100 higher than the CPGG base matrix; while the CPGG Se-F and CPGG Se-T biomatrixes present slow degradation at both physiological and acidic pH. Interestingly, the matrix that includes the Se-F complex significantly stimulates the metabolic activity of L929 fibroblasts for up to 48 h, stimulating their proliferation. The fibroblasts encapsulated on these novel biomatrixes show recurrent release capacity for up to 7 days, where the structure of the CPGG Se-H biomatrix exhibits greater release from the encapsulated cells. These results demonstrate that these innovative biomatrixes could be used in biomedical applications such as dermal tissue regeneration and cell release for a specific biological fate.
Machine Learning Based House Price Prediction Using Modified Extreme Boosting IIJSRJournal
In recent years, machine learning has become increasingly important in everyday voice commands and predictions. Instead, it provides a safer auto system and better customer assistance. As a result of all that has been demonstrated, ML is a technology that is becoming more and more popular in a range of industries. To gauge changes in house values, the House Price Index is frequently employed (HPI). Due to the substantial correlation that exists between property prices and other variables, such as location, region, and population, the HPI on its own is not sufficient to accurately forecast a person's house price. Some studies have successfully predicted house prices using conventional machine learning techniques, but they seldom evaluate the efficacy of different models and ignore the more complicated but less well-known models. We proposed Modified Extreme Gradient Boosting as our model in this study due to its adaptive and probabilistic model selection process. Feature engineering, hyperparameter training and optimization, model interpretation, and model selection and evaluation are all steps in the process. Home price indices, which are frequently used to support real estate policy initiatives and estimate housing costs. In this project, models for forecasting changes in home prices are developed using machine learning methods.

The study was initiated to evaluate the early performance of rambutan (Nephelium lappaceum) vegetative planted on marginal sandy tin-tailing soil. The experiment was carried out for one year in a plot of 4-year-old rambutan cultivar at MARDI Kundang, Rawang, Selangor, Malaysia. Varieties of Mutiara Merah and Mutiara Wangi were used. Data from the plants as a measurement of vegetative growth was recorded. Mutiara Merah proved that it can be well-grown and cultivated on sandy tin-tailing soil. The plant height of Mutiara Merah indicated the highest significant reading. The parameter of canopy width showed the same variety contributed to the highest record. Nevertheless, Mutiara Merah contributed to the highest significant reading on stem diameter and perimeter respectively. Chlorophyll content in leaves of the plant of the same variety recorded the highest SPAD reading. Further field evaluations are needed to determine the relationship of fertilizer level with the different varieties in inducing the growth and yield of rambutan planted in marginal soil.

Wine is a fermented drink made by the controlled culture of yeasts on fruit juices. This study was undertaken to produce acceptable wines from blends of banana and pineapple by the fermentative action of Meyerozyma guilliermondii strain 1621 and Pichia guilliermondii strain PAX-PAT 18S. The fermentation process lasted for a period of 28 days and, the aging process was for 2 months. The fermentation process comprised two set ups- one was fermented by Meyerozyma guilliermondii strain 1621 and the other was fermented by Pichia guilliermondii strain PAX-PAT 18S. The process was monitored and controlled by carrying out physicochemical analysis (pH, temperature, specific gravity, total titratable acidity, and alcohol content) and yeast count using standard methods. There was a decrease in the pH for both wines and an increase in the total titratable acidity. The temperature was between 17 and 27 0C for both wines. The specific gravity of the wines decreased during the fermentation leading to an increase in alcohol production. There was an increase in yeast count from 6.7×107 sfu/ml to 1.8×108 sfu/ml between days 1 and 17 and a decrease from 1.8×108 sfu/ml to 0 sfu/ml between days 17 to 85 for Meyerozyma guilliermondii; also an increase from 5.1×107 sfu/ml to 1.7×108 sfu/ml from day 1 to 17, and a decrease from 1.7×108 sfu/ml to 0 sfu/ml between day 17 to 85 for Pichia guilliermondii. Statistically, there was no significant difference between the yeast counts, temperature, pH, total titratable acidity, and specific gravity but there was signa ificant difference between the alcohol production for both wines. This study shows that wines can be successfully produced using Meyerozyma guilliermondii strain 1621 and Pichia guilliermondii strain PAX-PAT 18S.
Cohesive and Thermal Properties of Sodium Cyanide-Halide Mixed Crystals IIJSRJournal
In order to analyse the cohesive and thermal properties of sodium cyanide-halide mixed crystals an Extended Three Body Force Shell Model (ETSM) has been applied by incorporating the effect of translational-rotational (TR) coupling. We have conducted theoretical research on cohesive and thermal properties, such as cohesive energy (, molecular force constant (f), compressibility (), Restrahlen frequency (, Debye temperature (D), Gruneisen parameter (), Moelwyn Hughes constants (F1) and the ratio of volume thermal expansion coefficient (v) to volume specific heat (Cv), as a function of temperature within the temperature range 50K T 300K at concentration x=0, 0.27, 0.58 and 1. The current model computations and the findings of the available experiments are in good agreement. The ETSM is a sufficiently realistic model and may be applied to a variety of other mixed crystals in this family.

In recent years, short-form video has become a popular form of advertising on social media. The way consumers make decisions to purchase has changed owing to this new marketing method. This study aims to investigate the impact of informativeness, entertainment, credibility, social interaction, incentives and irritation of short-form video advertising on social media on the purchase intention of Gen Z in Vietnam through user attitude and advertising value. A survey was conducted by collecting responses from 1257 respondents who are Gen Z and familiar with social media, which was later analysed using SmartPLS. The findings revealed that advertising value and user attitude significantly affect customers’ purchase intention. In addition, advertising value is directly affected by informativeness, entertainment and credibility. Meanwhile, user attitude is directly affected by social interaction, incentives and irritation. Finally, the research team propose some solutions for businesses to increase the purchase intention of Gen Z in Vietnam through short-form video advertising on social media.
Can Perfume Allergy Cause Glycosuria? IIJSRJournal
The main aim of this research is to correlate relation between ornament allergy and glycosuria. Glycosuria is a process in which glucose is removed from urine. The value of glucose in blood must be less than 7 mmol/L. Glycosuria is caused by diabetes, high sugar diet, emotion and liver cirrhosis. Some people are sensitive to some fragrances or ornaments when they come in contact with these ornaments, they show marks of allergy like disease in respiratory track, fever, rashes and headache. The best treatment is to avoid such ornaments having unpleasant sharp smell which cause rashes. 17% males have glucose in urine and show perfume allergy while 1.25% females have glucose in urine and have perfume allergy.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

gain as a result of this. Digital and analytical technologies are driving continuous advancement in agriculture, and
this trend is here to stay. This has increased agricultural yields and contributed to an increase in the farming
community's income.
Fertilizers, herbicides, even seed technologies are only a few of the aspects of agriculture that have been impacted
by technology. Pest resistance and higher agricultural yields have been achieved using biotechnology and genetic
engineering. The effectiveness of physical labour, including such tilling, harvesting, as well as other manual chores,
has increased thanks to mechanisation. It goes without saying that other factors also contribute, such as better
irrigation systems, improved transportation systems, and less processing-related waste.
The application of contemporary technologies is highlighted, including robotic, targeted farming, artificial
intelligence, technology for block chains, and others [1-7].
Figure 1. Science, Technology and Management [8]
Improved productivity from mechanization of agriculture – Mechanization of agriculture has increased
production because manual labour and hand tools have energy and output restrictions, especially in tropical regions.
Smallholder farmers' opposition to agricultural mechanisation is typically ineffective due to issues with
accessibility, cost, and upkeep. Most often, combine harvesters are utilised to speed up processes and eliminate
manual labour. Due to the small landholdings in Indian agriculture, cooperation is required to use modern
machinery.
Future acceptability of mechanised services will rise as a result of supporting farmers in expanding their capacity,
making new equipment accessible, particularly to small farms, and resolving affordability issues through
legislation. Mechanization in agriculture has the potential to increase harvest gains and decrease post-harvest
losses, which may have a direct and indirect effect on yields.
Climate/ weather prediction through artificial intelligence – An important advancement is the use of artificial
intelligence in agriculture (AI). Modern technology and AI-based solutions, which also promote precision farming
and well-informed decision-making, enable data collection. The weather in and around fields is regularly monitored
by drones, remote sensors, and satellites, providing farmers with vital information on temperature, rainfall, soil,
humidity, and other elements. However, adoption of AI is slow in countries like India where poor farming practises,

169
widespread landholdings, and other issues provide challenges. Nonetheless, there is no doubting that technology
based on AI has the potential to bring precision to large-scale farming while massively increasing production.
Figure 2. Use of weather forecasting [9]
Resilient crops developed via use of biotechnology – Agriculture encompasses a wide range of technological
advancements, including traditional breeding methods, genetic engineering, and the development of
microorganisms expressly for agricultural purpose. In general, genetic engineering enhances plants and animals by
locating and modifying genes to increase agricultural pest resistance. Genetic engineering can also be used to
develop high-yielding cultivars.
The use of biotechnology in agriculture has had several beneficial effects for farmers and end users. Even though
some controversial practises have created reluctance to the use of biotechnology, there is little doubting that
Sustainable biotechnology will play an important part in the future of agriculture given the changing climate and
growing population.
Figure 3. Climate Resilient Plant Breeding [10]
Use of Sensors in Agriculture – The development of communications technology in India has paved the way for
smart farming. Sensors are currently used in agriculture to assist farmers in monitoring and optimising crops

regardless of environmental factors and limitations. These wirelessly interconnected sensors are employed for a
number of purposes, including exact location determination, airflow measurement, nutrient identification, and
analysis of soil composition and humidity levels. With fewer chemicals and less work, farmers may apply fertiliser
more efficiently by employing sensors. They allow farmers to use less natural resources while yet producing more.
Figure 4. Illumination sensor [11]
Increasing farm outputs and using supply chain management Big Data – By its gathering, compilation, and
subsequent processing, data is increasingly being used for decision-making and problem-solving. Big data in smart
agriculture is anticipated to have positive effects on markets and the entire supply chain. A wide variety of elements
are having an impact on agriculture as it grows.
As a result, complex data is now being gathered and utilized more frequently, necessitating efficient management
and interpretation. Markets, supplier networks, online networks, or field-collected sensor/machine data are all
potential sources of data. Agriculture is changing as a result of big data, that is having an impact on crop yield,
management of supply chains, yield projection, and other factors.
Figure 5. Configuration of stakeholders and functions in the agricultural supply chain [12]
Monitoring of Livestock – In order to manage livestock on a big scale and prevent disease outbreaks, chip and
sensors are essential. Body sensor and chips monitor vital information and symptoms that could detect disease

early and halt the spread of infection among herds. Similar to this, ultrasounds are a useful technique for assessing
the quality of meat. This helps to preserve and improve the meat's quality.
Improvement of soil fertility – The utilisation of inorganic chemical compounds in replenishing soil minerals has
been identified by soil scientists. Inorganic fertilizers and organic manures can be used to replenish the minerals
that over-cropping has removed from the soil. Crop rotation is one of the scientific agriculture strategies that have
been developed by researchers to enhance farmer productivity.
Improve the sustainable farming systems – Modern, sustainable manufacturing methods (such Viet GAP, Global
GAP, etc.) are becoming more well-liked and replicable. Moreover, efforts to adapt farming and production
practises to climate change have been made [14-19].
░ 3. Current Initiatives Under Digital Agriculture in India
Efforts have also been undertaken to digitalize the current value chain. It is clearly accepted and acknowledged that
Indian agriculture has to become more digital.
The commencement of the Digital Agricultural Mission 2021–2025 was announced by Mr. Narendra Singh Tomar,
Union Minister of Agriculture & Farmers Welfare, for September 2021. He also signed five Memorandums of
Understanding (MoUs) to expand digital agriculture though the pilot programs of CISCO, Ninjacart, Jio Platforms
Limited, ITC Limited, and NCDEX e-Markets Limited (NeML).The goal of the Digital Agricultural Mission
2021–2025 is to encourage and speed up ventures based on cutting-edge technologies including artificial
intelligence (AI), blockchain, remote sensing and GIS, and usage of robots and drones.
In August 2019, Cisco created an Agriculture Digital Infrastructure (ADI) solution to improve farming and
knowledge exchange. This ADI is probably going to be quite important in the data pool that the Department of
Agriculture will develop for the National Agri Stack. At Kaithal (Haryana) and Morena (Mexico), this initiative's
pilot project will be conducted (Madhya Pradesh).
In order to empower farmers, the Jio Agri (JioKrishi) platform, which was introduced in February 2020, digitizes
the agricultural ecosystem along the full value chain. The platform's core purpose uses data from small applications
to provide guidance; recent versions use data from numerous sources, feed it into AI/ML algorithms, and then
employ the results to provide exact, individualized advice. The towns of Jalna and Nashik in Maharashtra will host
the initiative's pilot experiment.
Using a digital crop monitoring platform hosted on ITC's e-Choupal 4.0 digital platform, ITC has proposed to
develop a personalised "Site Specific Crop Advice" service to transform conventional crop-level generic counsel
into a personalised site-specific crop advise for farmers. At Sehore and Vidisha, this initiative's pilot project will be
implemented (Madhya Pradesh).
Several digital tools have been created by the Ministry of Agriculture & Farmers Welfare to encourage farmers
to utilise technology, including: -
Market for National Agriculture (eNAM): The APMC-Agricultural Product Market Committee mandis are
connected via the National Agriculture Market (eNAM), which was launched in April 2016, to create a single

ISSN: 2456-883X
172
national market for agricultural commodities. eNAM enables farmers to sell commodities to customers directly
without the help of brokers or mediators by providing farmers with appropriate returns on their investment.
Central Agri Portal for Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT): The DBT Agri Portal, which was introduced in January
2013, serves as a centralised hub for all agricultural schemes in the nation. The portal provides government
subsidies to assist farmers in acquiring modern farm equipment.
The Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare and Microsoft signed a Memorandum of Understanding in June
2021 to operate a pilot programme in 100 communities across six states. In accordance with the Agreement,
Microsoft will use its cloud computing services to develop a "Unified Farmer Services Interface." This is a crucial
part of a ministry's long-term plan to create "AgriStack," a solitary platform that would provide farmers with
end-to-end service along the value chain for agriculture and food. To do this, the government intends to issue
special farmer IDs to each farmer in the nation in order to integrate them with other government programmes and
develop digital agricultural ecosystems [20-23].
░ 4. Digital Agriculture and its Future in India
Submission of Digital Agriculture: Farmers may obtain information about, visualize, and assess crop and soil
health problems at different stages of production in an efficient and practical way thanks to remote sensing, soil
sensors, unmanned aircraft surveys, market insights, and other technology interventions. They can act as an early
warning system to identify potential issues and provide speedy fixes.
In-the-moment actionable insights can be produced by artificial intelligence-machine learning (AI-ML) algorithms
to help with soil screening, boost crop productivity, reduce pests, and lighten farmer workload.
You can track your food and track accurate, tamper-proof information about farming, inventories, and transactions
with the aid of blockchain technology. As an outcome, farmers no longer have to depend on file or documentation to
record and store essential information.
Digital Agriculture Benefits: By putting these technology solutions into practice, farms may be managed and
monitored effectively. Farmers can act appropriately and avoid using excessive amounts of pesticides, fertilizers,
and water since they have access to a complete computerized study of their crops in real-time. Other advantages
include: Increasing agricultural productivity and lowering production costs, Avoiding soil deterioration, Lowering
chemical use in agricultural production, Encouraging efficient and effective usage water resources, Enhancing
farmers' socioeconomic positions, Reduced ecological and environmental impacts, and Boosting worker safety are
all goals.
Digital Agriculture Implementation in India: India's high percentage of segregated small-holder farms, which
makes data collection more challenging, is a major factor in the country's delayed adoption of digital farming. The
sector's limited adoption of mechanization technology and frequent calamities like drought, flooding, and heavy
monsoon rains have also had a significant impact on the utilisation of digital solutions. A custom strategy is
therefore needed to implement digitized agricultural on such a typical Indian smallholding; this can then be taken up
and made accessible to more Indian farmers. To ensure the success of digital agriculture in India, the following
actions could be taken.

Technological Cost-effective: Indian farmers frequently earn more than $1,000 annually. Their low income
explains the perilous financial problems that a typical Indian farmer encounters. Hence, lower technology expenses
will be advantageous.
Plug-and-play hardware does have a higher probability in the Indian market considering typical Indian farms seem
to be small. Also, under various farming arrangements, farmland leasing is fairly prevalent, so a farmer may switch
to some other farming plots the following season. In such circumstances, buying portable equipment is
advantageous for farmers.
Podiums for leasing and distribution agricultural gear and equipment include: Small agricultural plots and
limited financial resources present an opportunity offers online platforms that offer leasing and sharing services for
equipment as opposed to outright sales. Some agritech startups already offer equipment rental services, including
Farmkart (rent4farm), EM3 AgriServices, and Trringo.
Academic backing: Farmers frequently interact with the traditional farm association and academic institutions
through a variety of locally managed programmes and government initiatives. Farmer's adoption of digital
technology will expand as a result of the availability of training materials from numerous universities and
agricultural organisations [14].
Agriculture in Indian Economy
Even though the agriculture sector in India is responsible for over 65 percent of all employment, it only makes for
about 18 percent of the GDP of the nation. Despite significant advancements in food grain production, there are still
a number of challenges to be overcome if the government is to increase farm productivity as a share of GDP.
Agriculture in India is strongly dependent on the environment but worries about the weather and global warming
makes farming risky. There is an urgent need to educate farmers on how to use cutting-edge technology and
innovative approaches to increase production and profitability. The majority of people in India worked in
agriculture. The agricultural industry plays a significant role in the economy. The following are a few crucial points:
Both rural agricultural and non-agricultural labourers can find work in agriculture.
It is important for import and export operations as well as global trade.
The role of the agricultural sector in the Indian Economy is shown below by some points given below:
GDP contribution
Since the country's independence was declared, the agriculture sector has contributed the most to GDP. As during
fiscal year 1950–1951, 59% of the country's total GDP came from agriculture and other related businesses. Despite
a prolonged downturn, agriculture is still one of the key sectors of the Indian economy. On the contrary hand,
wealthy countries just like USA and the UK only account for about 3% of their GDP from the agriculture sector.
Largest Employee Division
The sector that has the greatest workers in the country is agriculture, in which more than fifty percent of the total
population in India is working. India has around 54.6% of the total population working in agriculture, which is
higher than wealthy nations like the UK, USA, France, and Australia, where the percentage is between 2% and 6%.

Food Source
India is the second-most populous country in the world. Also, there is a constant need for food to feed such a big
population. Agriculture is therefore vital, as is a decrease in the country's economic reliance on the sector.
Industrial and Agricultural Relation
To meet the continual demand for raw goods for production process, the bulk of the country's industries directly
gather this material from the agricultural fields.
In India, the agriculturally oriented sectors generate around half of the nation's industrial sector's income. As a
result, India's industrial sector is heavily dependent on agriculture.
Commercial Significance
The industrial sector, as well as internal and foreign trade, rely heavily on Indian agriculture. 20% of the nation's
total exports are textile products like jute and cotton, and 50% are edible agricultural products like tea, sugar,
cashew nuts, coffee spices, and others. They make up more than 70% of the country's overall exports and help it to
make money abroad.
Contribution to the Government’s Revenue
Agriculture is the main source of income for the state and federal governments. Growing land revenue is a
substantial source of funding for the national government. Also, the movement of agricultural goods contributes to
the financial success of the Indian Railways, in turn helping the government.
Economic Planning and Agriculture
So, the agricultural sector will have a significant influence on Indian planning in the future. A successful harvest
invariably boosts the business climate for said transportation system, manufacturing industries, domestic trade, and
other areas, which in turn fuels the country's anticipated economic growth.
░ 5. Conclusion
Human labour and hand tools have energy and output limitations, especially in tropical areas, mechanization of
agriculture has increased production. Smallholder farmers' opposition to agricultural mechanization is typically
ineffective due to issues with accessibility, cost, and upkeep. More often, combine harvesters are utilised to speed
up processes and eliminate manual labour. Due to the small landholdings in Indian agriculture, cooperation is

have a significant influence on Indian planning in the future. A successful harvest invariably boosts the business
climate for the transport network, manufacturing industries, domestic trade, and other areas, which in turn fuels the
country's anticipated economic growth. If the crop is successful, the Govt will have sufficient money to cover its
anticipated costs. Poor business situations across the country ultimately result in the collapse of economic planning,

much like a poor crop. As a result, in a country like India, the agricultural sector is essential and continues to be
substantially responsible for the country's economic success. The study described above makes it abundantly clear
that agricultural growth is a necessity for sectoral diversification and economic development.
