(1) The document discusses opportunities for "Made in India" in the agriculture sector, specifically addressing the problem of food waste. (2) It notes that 40% of India's annual agriculture produce, worth 58,000 crore INR, is wasted each year and proposes solutions like connected crop monitoring and demand-based food production to reduce waste. (3) The document also suggests drawing inspiration from Israeli agriculture technologies like inexpensive grain storage cocoons and drip irrigation to design new "Made in India" products addressing waste in the agriculture industry.

Do we have necessary “SKILLS” for Made in India ?

11. Made in India
“Skills”

12. “Innovation/Research for Made in India”
National Innovation Council : Innovation to address our challenges
Source: http://innovationcouncilarchive.nic.in/
Recommendation: Synergy between “Universities and Departments” for Made in India,
Focus on Basic Science
We have network of basic research laboratories/institutions(e.g., IISc) and
another for technology trainings(e.g., NSDC) , between the two there is very little
interaction and communication.
Challenge
NSDC: Nation Skill Development Corporation

13. Challenges for “Basic/Fundamental Science”
Maslow's Pyramid for education
Core Science/Research:
Education as a tool for
fulfilment
Bachelors & Masters:
Education as an
opportunity
Vocation studies:
Education as a privilege,
required for sustenance
Why do so many Indian students study
“Engineering & Medicine”
instead of conducting fundamental research in
basic sciences?
Promote “Core science and research” in skill India program
