Can Agritech startups solve the agriculture and farming issues in India? The average agricultural output in India during the past 60 years has increased. That's on top of the overall productivity increase. India's green revolution mission, improved road and power generation infrastructure, increased the number of online agriculture store in India, agri-input and supply chain management, agri-process knowledge, and other changes have all contributed to this rise in agricultural output.

There is a significant void that needs to be addressed by the next generation of agriculturalists, despite the fact that both the central and state governments have launched numerous agricultural development programmes to boost the growth of the agricultural industry. Scientists developing new farm technology would benefit greatly from incorporating farmers' traditional wisdom, experience, and expertise into their designs.

There is a lack of practical understanding of their perspectives and tendencies, their needs and interests, and their strengths and shortcomings.
