Developing cutting-edge technology for climate-sensitive agriculture
Advances in agricultural technology in India are addressing challenges such as low productivity, climate resilience, and soil infertility. Researchers are developing climate-resilient seeds through gene-editing, while startups like Krishitantra and SatSure are innovating with rapid soil testing and satellite data for agricultural loans and insurance. Despite these advancements, adoption remains uneven due to factors like economic conditions, technological infrastructure, and gender gaps in technology access. Public-private partnerships and improved digital infrastructure are essential for scaling these technologies and ensuring sustainable agricultural practices.
Technologies to decrease food loss and increase farmer incomes
Advances in post-harvest agricultural technologies in India aim to reduce food loss and increase farmer incomes. Innovations such as solar-powered dehydrators, cold-storage chambers, and demand-forecasting tools are helping farmers preserve produce and streamline supply chains. Agritech startups like S4S Technologies, WayCool, and DeHaat are leading these efforts, supported by organizations like the UN Food and Agriculture Organization and the Indian Council of Agricultural Research. Experts emphasize the need for climate-resilient crop varieties, precision-farming tools, and public-private collaborations to scale these technologies and make them accessible to all farmers.
Farming with AI and drones to increase yields, manage resources and reduce pests

Technologies like Fasal IoT and Plantix are helping farmers reduce water usage, cut production costs, and improve crop quality. Despite the benefits, technology adoption remains fragmented, necessitating greater awareness and education among farmers. Initiatives like Telangana's AI for Agriculture Innovation are showing promising results, underscoring the need for a comprehensive digital agriculture framework to support sustainable farming practices.
