&lt;br /&gt;
We have been hearing the expression &amp;lsquo;Industry 4.0&amp;rsquo; ever since the idea of &amp;lsquo;smart factory&amp;rsquo; was unveiled in Hannover in April 2013. Many opine &amp;lsquo;Agriculture 4.0&amp;rsquo; akin to 4G of telecom. I believe Agriculture 4.0 is &amp;ldquo;going back to basics, but with technology as its underpinning&amp;rdquo; to usher in sustainability, in the wake of climate change and degradation of our agricultural ecosystems. We need to re-look at agriculture with the &amp;lsquo;farmer at the centre&amp;rsquo;, and need to focus on 10 &amp;lsquo;elements of strategy&amp;rsquo;. These elements also supplement the recommendations of the High Powered Committee of Chief Ministers that is primarily examining agri-market reforms.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First, &amp;lsquo;seeds&amp;rsquo;. Most of our staples are self-pollinated crops and managing seed multiplication is easy. Hybrids predominate cross-pollinated and high-value crops like vegetables and cotton. Seed villages and community-managed seed systems have delivered results in many places. Our policy must aid in transforming such models into entrepreneurial activities in villages improving farmers&amp;rsquo; incomes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Second, &amp;lsquo;soil health, crop health and public health&amp;rsquo; are inextricably interconnected. It is felt that inappropriate usage of fertilisers and pesticides is polluting surface and subsurface aquifers and our food chains have chemical residues. The rising incidence of cancer is considered one such manifestation. The increase in the demand for organic food captures these feelings. But views on managing soil health and fertility vary widely between soil scientists and indigenous knowledge experts. Science is shy to research how indigenous knowledge systems work on farmers&amp;rsquo; fields. The National Innovation Foundation has codified several such ideas. The National Institute of Nutrition, Hyderabad, has noted that the food we eat is low on many nutrients. Improving soil health is thus sine qua non, as it reflects on public health through the food we eat. The PM rightly requested farmers on August 15, 2019, to reduce the usage of chemical fertilisers.&lt;br /&gt;

We have been hearing the expression &amp;lsquo;Industry 4.0&amp;rsquo; ever since the idea of &amp;lsquo;smart factory&amp;rsquo; was unveiled in Hannover in April 2013.

Many opine &amp;lsquo;Agriculture 4.0&amp;rsquo; akin to 4G of telecom. I believe Agriculture 4.0 is &amp;ldquo;going back to basics, but with technology as its underpinning&amp;rdquo; to usher in sustainability, in the wake of climate change and degradation of our agricultural ecosystems. We need to re-look at agriculture with the &amp;lsquo;farmer at the centre&amp;rsquo;, and need to focus on 10 &amp;lsquo;elements of strategy&amp;rsquo;. These elements also supplement the recommendations of the High Powered Committee of Chief Ministers that is primarily examining agri-market reforms.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First, &amp;lsquo;seeds&amp;rsquo;. Most of our staples are self-pollinated crops and managing seed multiplication is easy. Hybrids predominate cross-pollinated and high-value crops like vegetables and cotton. Seed villages and community-managed seed systems have delivered results in many places. Our policy must aid in transforming such models into entrepreneurial activities in villages improving farmers&amp;rsquo; incomes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Second, &amp;lsquo;soil health, crop health and public health&amp;rsquo; are inextricably interconnected. It is felt that inappropriate usage of fertilisers and pesticides is polluting surface and subsurface aquifers and our food chains have chemical residues. The rising incidence of cancer is considered one such manifestation. The increase in the demand for organic food captures these feelings. But views on managing soil health and fertility vary widely between soil scientists and indigenous knowledge experts. Science is shy to research how indigenous knowledge systems work on farmers&amp;rsquo; fields. The National Innovation Foundation has codified several such ideas. The National Institute of Nutrition, Hyderabad, has noted that the food we eat is low on many nutrients. Improving soil health is thus sine qua non, as it reflects on public health through the food we eat. The PM rightly requested farmers on August 15, 2019, to reduce the usage of chemical fertilisers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.financialexpress.com/opinion/agriculture-4-0-here-are-10-elements-of-strategy-that-the-sector-needs/1710527/&quot; title=&quot;https://www.financialexpress.com/opinion/agriculture-4-0-here-are-10-elements-of-strategy-that-the-sector-needs/1710527/&quot;&gt;click here&lt;/a&gt; to read more. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&#039;

We have been hearing the expression &amp;lsquo;Industry 4.0&amp;rsquo; ever since the idea of &amp;lsquo;smart factory&amp;rsquo; was unveiled in Hannover in April 2013. Many opine &amp;lsquo;Agriculture 4.0&amp;rsquo; akin to 4G of telecom. I believe Agriculture 4.0 is &amp;ldquo;going back to basics, but with technology as its underpinning&amp;rdquo; to usher in sustainability, in the wake of climate change and degradation of our agricultural ecosystems. We need to re-look at agriculture with the &amp;lsquo;farmer at the centre&amp;rsquo;, and need to focus on 10 &amp;lsquo;elements of strategy&amp;rsquo;. These elements also supplement the recommendations of the High Powered Committee of Chief Ministers that is primarily examining agri-market reforms.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First, &amp;lsquo;seeds&amp;rsquo;. Most of our staples are self-pollinated crops and managing seed multiplication is easy. Hybrids predominate cross-pollinated and high-value crops like vegetables and cotton. Seed villages and community-managed seed systems have delivered results in many places. Our policy must aid in transforming such models into entrepreneurial activities in villages improving farmers&amp;rsquo; incomes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Second, &amp;lsquo;soil health, crop health and public health&amp;rsquo; are inextricably interconnected. It is felt that inappropriate usage of fertilisers and pesticides is polluting surface and subsurface aquifers and our food chains have chemical residues. The rising incidence of cancer is considered one such manifestation. The increase in the demand for organic food captures these feelings. But views on managing soil health and fertility vary widely between soil scientists and indigenous knowledge experts. Science is shy to research how indigenous knowledge systems work on farmers&amp;rsquo; fields. The National Innovation Foundation has codified several such ideas. The National Institute of Nutrition, Hyderabad, has noted that the food we eat is low on many nutrients. Improving soil health is thus sine qua non, as it reflects on public health through the food we eat.

We have been hearing the expression &lsquo;Industry 4.0&rsquo; ever since the idea of &lsquo;smart factory&rsquo; was unveiled in Hannover in April 2013. Many opine &lsquo;Agriculture 4.0&rsquo; akin to 4G of telecom. I believe Agriculture 4.0 is &ldquo;going back to basics, but with technology as its underpinning&rdquo; to usher in sustainability, in the wake of climate change and degradation of our agricultural ecosystems. We need to re-look at agriculture with the &lsquo;farmer at the centre&rsquo;, and need to focus on 10 &lsquo;elements of strategy&rsquo;. These elements also supplement the recommendations of the High Powered Committee of Chief Ministers that is primarily examining agri-market reforms.<br />
<br />
First, &lsquo;seeds&rsquo;. Most of our staples are self-pollinated crops and managing seed multiplication is easy. Hybrids predominate cross-pollinated and high-value crops like vegetables and cotton. Seed villages and community-managed seed systems have delivered results in many places. Our policy must aid in transforming such models into entrepreneurial activities in villages improving farmers&rsquo; incomes.<br />
<br />
Second, &lsquo;soil health, crop health and public health&rsquo; are inextricably interconnected. It is felt that inappropriate usage of fertilisers and pesticides is polluting surface and subsurface aquifers and our food chains have chemical residues. The rising incidence of cancer is considered one such manifestation. The increase in the demand for organic food captures these feelings. But views on managing soil health and fertility vary widely between soil scientists and indigenous knowledge experts. Science is shy to research how indigenous knowledge systems work on farmers&rsquo; fields. The National Innovation Foundation has codified several such ideas. The National Institute of Nutrition, Hyderabad, has noted that the food we eat is low on many nutrients. Improving soil health is thus sine qua non, as it reflects on public health through the food we eat.

Agriculture 4.0: Here are 10 elements of strategy that the sector needs -PVS Suryakumar

-Financial Express We have been hearing the expression ‘Industry 4.0’ ever since the idea of ‘smart factory’ was unveiled in Hannover in April 2013. Many opine ‘Agriculture 4.0’ akin to 4G of telecom. I believe Agriculture 4.0 is “going back to basics, but with technology as its underpinning” to usher in sustainability, in the wake of climate change and degradation of our agricultural ecosystems. We need to re-look at agriculture with the ‘farmer at the centre’, and need to focus on 10 ‘elements of strategy’. These elements also supplement the recommendations of the High Powered Committee of Chief Ministers that is primarily examining agri-market reforms. First, ‘seeds’. Most of our staples are self-pollinated crops and managing seed multiplication is easy. Hybrids predominate cross-pollinated and high-value crops like vegetables and cotton. Seed villages and community-managed seed systems have delivered results in many places. Our policy must aid in transforming such models into entrepreneurial activities in villages improving farmers’ incomes. Second, ‘soil health, crop health and public health’ are inextricably interconnected. It is felt that inappropriate usage of fertilisers and pesticides is polluting surface and subsurface aquifers and our food chains have chemical residues. The rising incidence of cancer is considered one such manifestation. The increase in the demand for organic food captures these feelings. But views on managing soil health and fertility vary widely between soil scientists and indigenous knowledge experts. Science is shy to research how indigenous knowledge systems work on farmers’ fields. The National Innovation Foundation has codified several such ideas.
