PREFACE
Agriculture is the most dominant culture in the Indian Sub-continent. It is a

source of livelihood for more than half of Indian population, particularly in
the rural India. Besides, it plays a vital role in boosting Indian economy.
Indian agriculture is a diverse and extensive sector involving different
stakeholders viz., farmers, farm women, rural youth, agricultural researchers,
extension workers etc. Imperial (now Indian) Council of Agricultural
Research (ICAR), established on the recommendation of the Royal
commission in 1929 marked the genesis of agricultural research and
development in India. National Agricultural Research System (NARS) acts as
a brain for the developments that we have witnessed in the past, particularly
post-independence. Since then, agricultural research has played a
phenomenal role in improving the socio-economic standards of the farming
community as a whole. The most notable being green revolution, which has
contributed to Indian economy by providing food self-sufficiency and
improved rural welfare.
Present day youth are the pillars for future Indian farming, and young
researchers have an immense role to play in agricultural development. As
researchers, we have the responsibility to connect science and society by
acting as a bridge between the scientific community and the farming society.
The role of suggesting the researchers about what is needed, educating the
farmers about what is invented, and analysing the impact of what is
introduced rests with us. The book, An Anthology of Agricultural Research,
is such an attempt to contribute to the vast source of literature available in the
fields of Agriculture, Horticulture, Remote sensing, Artificial Intelligence,
Agribusiness, Agricultural Economics etc. Primarily, it was aimed to
encourage budding research scholars in the field of agriculture to publish
their work. We hope that, it would be a small contribution from the young
researchers to our desired field.
