Agriculture, employing over 50% of India's workforce, is the backbone of our nation's economy. It ensures food security and contributes significantly to our GDP. Let's explore why it matters. #FarmingandFarmers (1/n)

By understanding the challenges faced by farmers, such as fragmented landholdings and post-harvest losses (which account for about 30% of agricultural produce), we can support their efforts and promote sustainable farming practices. #SupportFarmers #Sustainability (2/n)

India's agricultural diversity is astounding. We are the 2nd Largest global producer of fruits and vegetables. #CulturalHeritage (3/n)

Embracing eco-friendly practices and technology like precision farming can protect the environment and boost productivity. Precision farming alone can increase crop yield by up to 20%, ensuring sustainable agricultural growth. #SustainableAgriculture #TechInAgriculture (4/n)

Being knowledgeable about agriculture empowers us to make informed choices. A fair trade economy also strengthens our communities because agriculture makes up 16% of India's GDP, so we must support our local farmers and advocate for fair trade practices. (5/n)
