E learning for Agriculture and Rural DevelopmentDevegowda S R
E-learning shows promise for addressing knowledge needs in agriculture but faces challenges. It involves the electronic delivery of educational content like online lectures, demonstrations, readings and exercises. It allows flexible access to experts and information. Examples in agriculture include Open Academy for Philippine Agriculture, Cereal Knowledge Bank, and TARAhaat in India. However, barriers include lack of internet access in rural areas, difficulty developing content, and sustaining programs over time. Overall, e-learning has potential if these issues are addressed, but fully realizing its benefits will require efforts to close technology divides.
The ppt presents the concepts of crop diversification, scope and opportunities for crop diversification across the globe in general and India and dryland agriculture in particular.
1) The document discusses the alternate wetting and drying (AWD) method for rice cultivation, which involves allowing the rice fields to partially dry out before re-flooding. This can reduce water use by 30-50% without affecting yields.
2) AWD is implemented by installing perforated tubes in rice fields to monitor water levels. Irrigation is provided when the water level reaches 15cm below the soil surface.
3) Field tests in Bangladesh found that AWD required 4-5 irrigations compared to 8-9 under traditional continuous flooding. This technique could significantly reduce fuel and pumping costs while lessening environmental impacts like groundwater depletion and arsenic contamination.

Climate resilient agriculture adaptation and mitigation strategiesDevegowda S R
This document discusses climate resilient agriculture and its importance in India. It provides definitions of key terms like climate resilience, adaptation, and mitigation. It outlines various strategies for climate resilient practices in agriculture, including developing drought/heat tolerant crop varieties, improved water management, and diversifying crops and farm practices. The National Initiative on Climate Resilient Agriculture (NICRA) is described as the major government project focused on building resilience through strategic research, technology demonstrations, and capacity building. Several case studies on awareness, adoption and impact of climate resilient practices by farmers in India are summarized.
1) Agri-startups are small companies developing new products or services in agriculture to address unmet needs. They go through various phases from ideation to scaling up.
2) IARI is supporting agri-startups through its Arise program which provides incubation support like training, mentoring and helping startups pitch to investors.
3) A PhD thesis identified the top characteristics of successful agri-entrepreneurs as innovativeness, social networking, risk-taking and resiliency.
Agriculture in developing countries must undergo a significant transformation in order to meet the related challenges of achieving food security and responding to climate change. Projections based on population growth and food consumption patterns indicate that agricultural production will need to increase by at least 70 percent to meet demands by 2050. Most estimates also indicate that climate change is likely to reduce agricultural productivity, production stability and incomes in some areas that already have high levels of food insecurity. Developing climate-smart agriculture is thus crucial to achieving future food security and climate change goals. This seminar describe an approach to deal with the above issue viz. Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA) and also examines some of the key technical, institutional, policy and financial responses required to achieve this transformation. Building on cases from the field, the seminar try to outlines a range of practices, approaches and tools aimed at increase the resilience and productivity of agricultural product systems, while also reducing and removing emissions. A part of the seminar elaborates institutional and policy options available to promote the transition to climate-smart agriculture at the smallholder level. Finally, the paper considers current gaps and makes innovative suggestion regarding the combined use of different sources, financing mechanism and delivery systems.
This document discusses social media in agricultural extension. It defines social media and outlines its key dimensions and principles. Social media can help address challenges in extension like the large number of farmers and few extension workers. It discusses the status and growth of social networking users worldwide. Social media has the potential to develop knowledge, empower farmers, and provide better information access at low cost. Research studies show that farmers have a positive attitude towards social media as a source of agricultural information, though access challenges remain. The conclusion is that social media can help establish important connections between agricultural research, extension, and farmers to make extension more effective.
Irrigation is the artificial application of water to land or soil to assist in crop growth. Historically, irrigation was labor intensive and dependent on weather, but modern irrigation is more machine intensive, market-focused, and allows farmers to control water supply independent of rains. There are several irrigation methods, including surface irrigation where land is fully flooded, sprinkler irrigation where water is distributed through sprinklers, and drip irrigation where water is supplied drop-by-drop directly to plant roots, making it the most efficient method. While modern irrigation techniques are more costly to install initially, they are also more efficient and effective at delivering the right amount of water to increase crop yields.
What practical steps can smallholder farmers take to adapt their agricultural practices to secure dependable food supplies and livelihoods? And can they do this while also decreasing greenhouse gas emissions or increasing carbon sequestration, thereby decreasing future climate change?
Both climate change and global food demand are expected to become more severe in the upcoming decades. In terms of consistently growing population, the agricultural industry will need to embrace better methods to feed our people with a sufficient and healthy supply of food. The Internet of Things technology (IoT) is a breakthrough technology system that evolved from the convergence of wireless technologies and the Internet. Machine-to-machine (M2M) communication systems will be embedded in an objects’ manufacture and will operate automatically without human-to-computer interaction. This will allow information to be transmitted among wireless devices amongst the machines themselves. With IoT innovation, farmers and growers will be able to boost productivity, strengthen pest control and reduce possible energy waste during cultivation.

Concept of Water Management for Crops in PakistanGhulam Asghar
"Water Management is the integrated process of intake, conveyance, regulation, measurement, distribution, application and use of irrigation water and drainage of excess water with proper amount and at right time for the purpose of increasing crop production and water economy in conjunction with improved agricultural practices."
The presentation discusses the Green Revolution in agriculture, which refers to a large increase in crop production through the use of modern techniques. It was sparked by scientists like Norman Borlaug who developed high-yielding varieties of major crops that responded well to fertilizers and irrigation. This led to a crop surge starting in the 1960s, boosting food production in countries like India, Mexico, and Bangladesh. While the Green Revolution increased yields and food security, it also led to environmental issues from overuse of chemicals and could leave small farmers unemployed. More sustainable farming methods are now needed.
This document discusses integrated watershed management and rainwater harvesting. It covers India's water resources, watershed development and modeling, integrated watershed management approaches, water conservation techniques, and provides a case study of a successful watershed management project in Jhabua, India. The key points are:

FIRA 2018 - Claudia Roessler - Microsoft CorporationFIRA
This document discusses how technology can empower the agriculture value chain by making it more sustainable, accessible, and economically viable. It notes that 24% of global greenhouse emissions and 70% of water resources come from agriculture. New technologies can help save 251 trillion liters of water by 2030. The document then outlines several ways that sensors, drones, AI and other technologies through solutions like FarmBeats can help monitor conditions remotely, optimize irrigation and inputs, and gain insights to increase yields while reducing costs and environmental impact. It also discusses how blockchain can be used to create more transparency in food supply chains to track food from farm to table, reduce waste, ensure safety and compliance.
This document presents a project on implementing a smart farming system using IoT for efficient crop growth. It was carried out by two students, Abhisheka Masalavadada and Guruprasad, under the guidance of Prof. Aparna Chilakwad. The presentation covers introducing smart agriculture using IoT as a solution to increase crop yields with low costs by monitoring soil conditions, temperature, humidity and providing automated irrigation. It then describes the system implementation using sensors to measure these parameters connected to an Arduino board to control a motor pump. The system is found to optimize water usage, sustain high yields and produce high quality crops in a cost-effective manner.
Artificial intelligence has great potential to help address challenges in agriculture and improve efficiency. It can be used for weather forecasting to help farmers determine optimal sowing times, soil and crop health monitoring to identify nutrient deficiencies and diseases, and analyzing crop health with drones to detect issues early. While AI is already being used in these applications, the industry remains underserved and challenges like irregular water access and climate change still exist. Further development of robust AI solutions could help automate farming tasks to boost yields and quality using fewer resources to help address food demands of a growing population.

Design and Development of IoT and Cloud Based Smart Farming System for Optimu...ijtsrd
This document describes the design and development of an IoT and cloud-based smart farming system for optimal water utilization and better crop yields. The system uses soil moisture sensors to frequently monitor soil moisture levels and uploads the data to the cloud. Based on the soil moisture levels, a motor automatically switches the irrigation on or off to ensure crops are watered only when needed. This reduces human involvement and waste by optimizing water usage according to programmed threshold values. Farmers can access reports on their phone to view farm statistics anytime. The system aims to address issues with traditional irrigation methods and help farmers improve production through smart technology and data-driven water management.
