The Future of Indian Agriculture in 2023!

Indian Agriculture has made unexpected progress in the last 75 years, it has become the second largest horticultural producer in the world, compared to the world, milk production is the highest in India, the second largest fish producer in India, and its agricultural production is 44% higher compared to the US.

Despite the fact that certain limitations surround the agriculture sector in India, a record increase in grain production (308.65 million tons) has been witnessed in the year 2021. The credit goes to the introduction of Modern Farming methods, the Kisaan App such as “Outgrow” (free of cost 24/7 assistance), and the entry of young farmers into the agriculture business.

So if you ask about the Future of Indian Agriculture in 2023! I will say “It is Bright!”. Let's see how.

      Modern Farming Methods

Molecular breeding, mechanized farming, and crop biofortification are some of the Modern Farming methods that have been adopted in Indian Agriculture.

Doubling the farmer’s income by 2025 is the dream of Indian Agriculture management. The signs to achieve the goal are clear, India has now become a Net Exporter and India's agricultural and processed food products exports stood at US$ 9,598 million in the last year (April-July 2022).

      Improving Irrigation Efficiency

According to an estimation, India has 4% of the world’s water resources. India has about 140 million hectares of cultivated area, out of which less than 45% is irrigated. Almost 9 million hectares are under micro-irrigation and 4 million hectares are under drip irrigation.

Water resource optimization is the need of the day and India is struggling to minimize water loss by adopting modern irrigation technologies such as sprinkler and drip irrigation methods.

      Widely Adapted Agriculture Business

The number of progressive farmers has increased in the last few years. The rapid increase in the adoption of agriculture business as a profession by young entrepreneurs is enough to define The Future of Indian Agriculture in 2023!

Agriculture apps like Outgrow struggling to motivate the new farmers by providing A-Z guidelines relevant to their crops, automated soil analysis, free-of-cost disease identifications, financial assistance for small farmers, keeping the farmers informed of the real-time mandi prices, and taking responsibility for the product until it reaches to the market.

      Kisaan App

The Kisan app was launched by Dr. Khushboo Mirza, a senior scientist. The app is serving the farmers by offering discounts on farming machinery, providing live sessions for face-to-face guidance by the Agriculture Expert’s team, and the best possible solutions to the Kisan crop-relevant problems.

      Yield Damage Assessment

Post-harvest losses are the biggest loss that the agriculture sector faces. In-time yield management, efficient post-harvest handling, and knowledge of the current market situations are the success factors.

Agriculture Apps such as Outgrow keep its membered farmers aware of the real-time mandi prices, take responsibility for the product until it reaches the market, and keep the farmers informed about the health and required efforts for their crops.
