Volume : I, Issue : VII, August - 2011 Contemporary Technology in Agriculture: An Assessment Tapas Pal Published By : Laxmi Book Publication Abstract : Agriculture is the base pavement, Industry is the roof and Technology is the pillararchitecture
of any social development. From Vedic society, Indian agriculture was
firmly adopting with traditional techno knowledge. Farmers were mainly eco-lover
and to increase their agro-production in relevant of demand-supply ratio they were
dependent on natural manure based organic elements. But in 2001 we have crossed
100 crores population’s food demand. So, from upper politicians, scientists to
lower peasants were thinking that how this food-crisis disaster can be checked?.
All of them decided that we have to use chemical fertilizers, pesticides,
insecticides instead of natural manure. Farmers are doing this in their agro-field
and trying to increase the production rate. And the result outcome, the production
has increased but these contemporary modern techniques are not fruitful and
production for local environment for long-term effect and we are staying a risk
associate vulnerable periphery. This paper encompasses over the use of modern
technologies especially chemical fertilizers, pesticides & compost in agricultural
development of Goalpara Village & its adverse effects as well as remedial
measures. Keywords : Article : Cite This Article : Tapas Pal, (2011). Contemporary Technology in Agriculture: An Assessment. Indian Streams Research Journal, Vol. I, Issue.
