AgriTech India 2013

Agriculture is undoubtedly the largest livelihood provider in rural India. As we enter a new post WTO Scenario and IT revolution, new inventions are happening day by day in every sphere. Agriculture is not culture now, it is Agri Business!

Agriculture constitutes over 25% of India's GDP. In recent years much emphasis has been given by The Ministry of Agriculture on commercializing agricultural production in the country. Adequate production and distribution of food has become a high priority and global concern. In the fast changing world and increasing competition in a globalised economy, there is a need for exploiting the available resources to the maximum level and use of best technologies available world over, to cope up with domestic demand of food and also to target export market. This will be particularly relevant in South India, where farmers grow a number of crops, but have technical constraints in enhancing production and productivity because of inadequate exposure to high technology & inputs coupled with advanced production practices, logistics and marketing. In addition, shortage of labour is a major concern for progressive farmers of South India who are ready to offer more wages to labourers. Therefore, they are forced to become machinery-dependant in their farm operations. As a result, South India is emerging as one of the hottest destinations as well as a strong market with buying potential for farm machinery and equipment. In order to introduce latest mechanization & technological innovations, AgriTech India 2013 is proved to be an ideal platform to launch your products & services among thousands of farmers & agro entrepreneurs to throng this expo.
