PEOPLE’S HEALTH AND QUALITY OF LIFE IN INDIA
CONTEMPORARY INDIAN AGRICULTURE:
CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES
The Indian Academy of Social Sciences (IASS) in association with the University of Mysore,
which is celebrating its centenary this year, will be organizing the 40th Session of Indian Social
Science Congress from 19-23 December 2016 with the focal theme ‘People’s Health and
Quality of Life in India.’ As a part of the congress deliberations, the Research Committee on
Agricultural Sciences has resolved to hold a National Symposium under the sub-theme
“Contemporary Indian Agriculture: Challenges and Opportunities.”
About the National Symposium
Presently, the Indian agriculture is at the crossroads. The diversion of agricultural land, water
and power to non-agricultural sectors, causing degradation of arable land and natural resources,
and unfavourable climatic conditions owing to global warming, pose formidable challenges to
our food, nutritional and livelihood security. The ever-increasing human population, climate change
vagaries, outbreaks of pests and disease, and scarcity of water, labour and other natural
resources have further added to the challenges. These are influencing the political, social and
economic policies in the country. Comprehensive crop husbandry is essential if high yields and
productivity are to be achieved and sustained. Here comes the role of agricultural research and
extension to develop suitable technologies to mitigate the emerging challenges and disseminate
the knowledge to farming community for betterment of agriculture.
In recent years, farmers are desperate with the problems posed by vagaries of nature, and
uncertainty of production and market. A large number of farmers have committed suicide owing
to economic stress and such tragedies are highly disturbing to a country with agriculture as its
backbone. The present day farmers are eager to know about the modern farming technologies
that can contribute to enhance crop production and protection for higher returns. Improved
