Revitalizing Agriculture: Harnessing Traditional Wisdom | Dr Prasanna Kr. Pathak |

Traditional knowledge embodies the collective wisdom accumulated over centuries, offering invaluable insights into sustainable agricultural practices. While modern agriculture has brought undeniable benefits, practices such as monoculture have made pest control increasingly challenging. Recognizing the importance of traditional practices is vital for addressing such issues. Documenting traditional agricultural knowledge is crucial for its preservation and dissemination, ensuring it remains accessible for future generations. Moreover, reforming traditional knowledge for contemporary applications is essential. Just as research once focused on fertilizers during the Green Revolution, there is now a need to explore the modern application of relevant traditional practices, integrating them with innovative technologies to foster sustainable agricultural systems.

One thing I cannot understand. How can Netherland a country 77 times smaller than India produce almost twice India's annual Agricultural Output.? 650 million tons . Instead of doubling Farmers Income India should focus on ONE Trillion tons Agricultural Production in the next few years . A thought . Jai Hind !
