Emerging Technologies in the Field of Agriculture for Vidarbha Region
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Amravati
Abstract
The Vidarbha region, located in eastern Maharashtra, India, is characterized by its predominantly agrarian economy, with agriculture serving as the primary livelihood source for a significant portion of its population. The region faces various challenges, including water scarcity, soil degradation, climate variability and socio-economic constraints, which affect agricultural productivity, livelihood security and rural development. This paper explores the role of emerging agriculture technology in addressing the unique challenges and opportunities of the Vidarbha region's agricultural sector. The study highlights key emerging technologies and innovations, such as precision agriculture, remote sensing, vertical farming, biotechnology, sustainable farming practices and market linkages. Furthermore, the benefits, challenges and implications for Vidarbha's farming communities, ecosystems and economy. It also builds capacity and engage stakeholders.
