ABOUT AGRICULTURE TODAY

Agriculture has been the primary occupation of human beings. What began as a means of survival, has today emerged as a significant economic activity around the world. Agriculture has transformed in various ways from subsistence to affluence, from traditional to technological, from undefined to precise, and the pace has rapidly accelerated in the last one decade with the globalization and technological advancement. In this journey of transformation media has played critical roles. Still there is a long way to go in making the planet free from hunger and malnutrition.

Increasing population, changing climate, diminishing resources and increasing disposable incomes have put agriculture worldwide under tremendous pressure. While the developed countries moved up in food, nutrition and health chain through technological advancements, second and third world countries are grappling with challenges in farming and food production. Developing and underdeveloped nations in order to boost agriculture and unlock the potential of trade and technologies, need cooperation and collaboration and global experiences at an accelerated pace.

The experiences of the country like India, which pulled out over 500 million people from the jaws of hunger deaths through Green Revolution, provides excellent learning experiences for most of the African and many of the Asian and Latin American countries with its experiences and diversity of learning through Green Revolution in food production, White Revolution in milk, Blue Revolution in fisheries and Golden Revolution in horticulture production.
