Modernizing India's Agricultural Sector

India's Agricultural Sector is starving due lack of finances, frequency of droughts, poor farming technology availability & offcourse Politics.

A huge share of population is dependant on it, & Even creating disguised unemployment.

India needs to overhaul its agricultural sector & modernize it to make the "Make in India" truly successful.

Some of the Dominant Issues are
1. Very Low Literacy among Farmers.
2. Lack of Skilled Labor
3. Lack of Finance
4. Poor Crop Season Planning
5. Heavy Dependency on Monsoon
6. Isolation of Agricultural Sector from Financial Services
7. Poor Politics, Leading to inability to take bold decisions
8. Agriculture is Considered as a Lower Class Profession in India
9. Social Issues creating a roadblock to Development

If we see any developed economy, agriculture is a big contributing factor, for example- USA, Russia, Australia
