Declining focus on agriculture threatens sustainable economic development in India.
Agriculture is crucial for India's economy, providing food, income, and employment for many people. Despite its importance, government funding for agriculture has been decreasing over the years. However, private investment in the sector is increasing. Agriculture contributes significantly to India's GDP and plays a key role in providing food for the population and feed for livestock. To ensure sustainable economic development, there needs to be a focus on increasing public investment, agricultural research, and rural infrastructure development.
