He mentioned that the responsibilities of an Agriculture Minister are not only limited to handling one sector of the economy, but extend towards securing the future of humanity.
He noted that agriculture provides a livelihood for over 2.5 billion people globally and accounts for almost 30 percent of GDP and over 60 percent of jobs in the Global South. Underlining the challenges faced by the Global South today, he stated the impact of the pandemic and the worsening geopolitical tension disrupting the supply chain. He also touched upon climate change causing extreme weather events.
PM Modi highlighted India’s policy of a fusion of ‘back to basics’ and ‘march to future’ and said that India is promoting natural farming as well as technology-enabled farming.
