: Agriculture, as a backdrop in India's economy, is critical because to its substantial percentage of job and livelihood generation. In India, agriculture's contribution to GDP is dropping while the number of people involved in agriculture and related activities remains high, creating worries about both land and labour productivity. Throughout history, technological innovations have had a significant impact on agriculture. So far, technological development in Indian agriculture has remained an unfinished undertaking. The influence of new technology varies according on crop and locale. Clearly, the progress made thus far has been limited and symbolic, and much more has to be done to appropriately promote and spread it. A necessary first step in this direction would be to examine the emerging trends and technologies in agricultural advancement, which is precisely the objective of this inquiry. The book provides an interesting narrative of technological advancement in agriculture by analyzing in depth technological method used. Also it gives all the details from emerging technology in advancement of Indian agriculture such as breeding methods and seed farming technologies in agricultural crops, plant cell and tissue culture techniques in crop improvement, remote sensing in agriculture, effects of genetically modified (GM) crops on modern agriculture, nano technology in agriculture, precision farming, emerging technologies for integrated pest management, pioneer methods of fruit production in modern horticulture, modern era remote sensing and GIS in horticulture sector: opportunities and challenges and impact of economic factors on nutritional diet. This book would certainly assume greater significance in creating database for realistic planning and implementation of future technological advancement in agriculture and would help in adding to existing store-house of knowledge concerning latest technology in agriculture and related issues. It would also guide readers in deriving insight in understanding many aspects relevant particularly to technological advancement in Indian agriculture.
