SM Sehgal Foundation discusses the importance of technological advancements and modern machines that have innovated agriculture development.

1. Role of Modern
Technology
in Agriculture

2. The role of modern technology is significant
in agricultural development; and with the
advent of digital technology, the scope has
widened. Innovation is leading to an
evolution in agricultural practices, reducing
losses and increasing efficiency, leading to
increased income of the farming community.
Introduction

3. Technology in agriculture affects many areas of
agriculture. India managed to achieve self-sufficiency
in foodgrain production by leveraging modern methods
of agriculture like chemical fertilizers and pesticides,
higher quality seeds, and proper irrigation.
Hence, to enhance crop yields, farmers must keep
themselves abreast with the cutting-edge methods of
farming.

5. Uses Of Modern Technology In Agriculture In India
• Improved productivity from the mechanization of agriculture – Agricultural
mechanization has the potential to, directly and indirectly, , improve yields through a
reduction in post-harvest losses and increased harvest gains.
• Climate/ weather prediction through artificial intelligence – Technologies based on
AI can bring precision to large-scale farming and lead to an exponential rise in
productivity.
• Resilient crops developed via the use of biotechnology – There is no doubt that the
future of agriculture is heavily dependent on SAFE biotechnology, given the changing
climate and increase in population.
• Agriculture Sensors – Sensors allow farmers to maximize yields using minimal
natural resources.

6. Uses Of Modern Technology In Agriculture In India
• Improving farm yields and supply chain management using Big Data – Decision-
making/problem-solving is expanding the way big data functions.
• Livestock monitoring – This helps control and improve the quality of the meat.
• Monitor And Control Crop Irrigation Systems Through Smartphone - Plays a
significant role in monitoring and controlling crop irrigation systems.
• Usage of mobile technology and cameras - Some farmers leverage apps and have
cameras installed to keep an eye on their employees.

7. Having a range of technologies
enables the transition of modern
agriculture in the field. There are many
promising trends and pilot projects in
modern technology in agriculture.
