Digital Agriculture for Sustainable and Inclusive Farm Productivity in India

Gayatri Behera

Digital Farming makes use of mobile application, IOT, AI, and analysis of data to update the farming methods, boost productivity, and help the environment. Although there is proof of efficiency and productive farmland, farmers in India are slow to adopt it because of problems related to infrastructure, their society and economy, and national policies. This paper will analyze the influence of digital tools on farming, and find out why some farmers don't adopt them and suggest some useful steps for inclusive advancement in technology. To yield the results, the study will perform field experiments, collect survey data, and analyze the policies, after which finding can benefits the researchers and those working in the sector. The digital transformation of Indian agriculture also promotes inclusiveness by expanding market access through e-commerce platforms, which help farmers to overcome geographical constraints and reduce post-harvest losses. Despite the immense potential, challenges remain, including the low adoption rate among small holder farmers due to high costs and limited digital infrastructure with the advancement of the digital village strategy; the continuous integration of the digital economy with the rural economy has gradually become an emerging driving force for sustainable agriculture. Digital tools are expected to streamline land records, financial transactions and procurement, reducing disputes, malpractices, and boosting policy efficiency. With the collection and processing of information, technologies automation and robotisation, they can contribute towards a more sustainable agricultural production.
