GDP
Contribution

Market Size
Over the recent past, multiple
factors have worked together to
facilitate growth in the agriculture
sector in India.
India's food grain
production has
increased marginally
to 252.23 million
tonnes (MT) in the
2015-16 crop year.
Second-largest
producer of sugar,
accounts for 14 per
cent of the global
output. Sixth-largest
exporter of sugar

With an annual
output of 146.31 MT,
India is the largest
producer of milk,
accounting for 18.5
per cent of the total
world production
The spices market in
India is valued at Rs
40,000 crore (US$
5.87 billion)
annually. Spice
exports from India
are expected to
reach US$ 3 billion
by 201617

The procurement
target for rice
during marketing
season (MS) 2015
16 has been
finalised as 30 MT.

Technological Progress in Agriculture

There are still large productivity gaps in the potential and the realized farm output and with
development and infusion of new technologies our farm production will go up to meet the
rising domestic food demand

IMPACT

A CAGR of 108% over the last

decade would not have been
possible without these
technological progresses.
The techniques of remote sensing
using satellite technologies,
geographical information systems,
agronomy and soil sciences are
used to increase the agricultural
output.
Food grain production increased
from about 45 million tonnes in
195152 to over 200 million tonnes
at the beginning of this century.
Productivity of major cereals
increased from 700 kg per hectare
in 196162 to over 1700 kg per

IT Industry comprises of software industry and
information technology enabled services (ITES),
which even includes business process outsourcing
(BPO) industry

Countries with similar growth trajectory

Domestic software has grown at 46 per cent while
software exports have grown at 62 per cent over the
last 5 years. Information Technology enabled services
(ITes) with elements like call centres, back office
processing, contents development and medical
transcription are key to rapid growth. The sector has an
employment potential of 2 million by 2010
