This video from BBC News highlights the transformative role of artificial intelligence (AI) in revolutionizing India’s agriculture sector. By replacing traditional farming techniques with AI-driven technologies, farms are becoming more efficient, productive, and profitable. AI assists farmers in making critical decisions about irrigation, fertilization, and pest control, resulting in water conservation and enhanced crop yield.
Additionally, AI-powered robots are introduced to streamline farming operations. Despite these advancements, the adoption rate among Indian farmers remains low at 2%. The video emphasizes the need for improved digital infrastructure in rural areas and stronger government initiatives to further promote technological innovation in agriculture. It acknowledges that while AI offers a promising path to increased profitability, widespread implementation across India’s vast agricultural landscape will require significant time and investment.
