Use of digital technology for creating hyperlocal solutions and value-added services for agriculture is no longer just a blip on the radar of startups. It is an area that is fast gaining traction with tech companies, digital entrepreneurs and startups investing money and lining up some of their brightest minds toward expanding their footprints.
The Digital India Campaign — launched four years ago when the current government took power and initiated flagship announcements for making India a leading digital economy — has spawned a number of digital startups in a wide range of sectors, including what is called #agtech.
Use of technology in India’s agriculture sector has been an integral part of its story of food self-sufficiency and green revolution. The state-run satellite imagery, weather forecasts, soil and crop advisories and agriculture extension using state television and audio broadcast were some of the highlights of science and technology-driven agricultural policy for several decades.
So, it is only logical to ask what is different about the current buzz around digital agriculture.
