By 2030 we will exceed 8.58 billion people globally.The responsibility to feed the esteemed population resides in the hands of farming community who produce the food for 7.2 billion people.Farmers will have to produce more than 50 % food in future. The land is shrinking day by day and more and more agricultural land is coming under roads and buildings thus it has become a peak challenge for the agricultural experts to meet the global food demand and ensure food security.

The agriculture sector currently valued at US $ 370 billion majorly contributed to Indian economy according to the economic survey 2020-21. GDP contribution by the agriculture sector was19.9 % during 2021. Agriculture provides employment to over 60 % of the people. In addition to food grain production, the growing demand for fruits and vegetables, dairy products, fish and meat will increase in future. Focus on Hi-tech agriculture, climate smart interventionsetc., is need of the hour. There is a paradigm shift on processed food products as nearly about 30 % of the fruits and vegetables losses occur due to post harvest management losses.
