There is a need to boost agriculture mechanisation to enhance crop productivity to feed the growing population, Agriculture Minister Radha Mohan Singh said on Friday.
Singh, however, added that agriculture mechanisation can face problems in rural parts where 55 per cent of farmers are either small farmers or marginal farmers. At the same event, Agriculture Ministry Secretary Shobhana K. Pattanayak said that India was emerging leader in export of agricultural machinery."Agriculture mechanisation will not just help in enhancing income of farmers but reduce drudgery also. India has been a frontrunner for manufacturing of agricultural machinery, which are known for quality and preciseness with it works in the field," Pattanayak said.(Except for the headline, this story has not been edited by NDTV staff and is published from a syndicated feed.)
