The agriculture sector in India supports 42.3% of the population and contributes 18.2% to the GDP. Despite challenges, the Economic Survey 2023-24 advocates for leveraging technology and policy reforms, such as the Agri Stack initiative, to formalize the sector, boost productivity, increase farmer income, and drive economic growth. Agri Stack aims to address issues like poor land records, enhance credit access, improve data management, and facilitate better policy interventions, ultimately benefiting both farmers and the economy as a whole.
