Abstract
Agriculture is the support of India's food security, despite the entry’s
enormous population and rapid growth. Agriculture employs more
than 70% of the population. Over half of the country's workforce is
employed in this industry, making it the biggest private sector job
by far. The Indian government places a high priority on agriculture's
success because of its role in the country's food security and
employment. In 1950-51, agriculture's contribution to GDP was
55.4 percent; in 1960-61, it was 52 percent; and in 2012-13, it is
just 13.7 percent. In addition, small and marginal farmers with
relatively modest landholdings dominate Indian agriculture.
Farming is the primary occupation of the vast majority of the
population. Small and home-based businesses that rely on
agriculture for raw materials and food are supported by this
industry.
