Solution

Major problems of the Indian Agriculture :


Lack of Land Reforms : Due to exploitative revenue systems such as Mahalwari, Ryotwari and Zamindari, operational since the British era, Indian farmers were exploited for a long time. Even when the land reforms were made top priority after independence, the reforms were not carried out as many state governments avoided taking politically tough decisions which went against the wealthy zamindars.

Degradation of Cultivable Land : Faulty strategy of agricultural development has led to degradation of cultivated land. Alkalisation and salinization of soils and waterlogging has also made agricultural lands less fertile. Excessive use of chemicals such as pesticides and insecticides has accumulated in huge amounts in the soil.
