Abstract:
Agriculture sector is the mainstay of the Indian economy around which socio-economic privileges and deprivation revolve, and any change in its structure is likely to have a corresponding impact on the existing pattern of social equality. The pace of adoption of modern technology in India is slow and the farming practices are too haphazard and unscientific. Some of the basic issues for development of Indian agriculture sector are revitalization of cooperative institutions, improving rural credits, research, human resource development, trade and export promotion, land reforms and education. Men and women can benefit simply from improvements to their wellbeing in terms of health, nutrition or income. But innovations can also sometimes lead to women’s empowerment, better household decision-making and new agents of change appearing in communities.
