Haryana Agriculture Minister Shyam Singh Rana emphasized the importance of integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) into farming while preserving traditional agricultural practices.
Speaking at the closing ceremony of the 8th Mango Fair at the Indo-Israel Centre of Excellence in Ladwa, he highlighted the role of farmers' experience as the 'soul of agriculture.' Over 200 mango varieties were showcased, demonstrating innovation and diligence in farming.

Impact & Risks

The integration of AI in farming could significantly benefit Indian farmers by improving efficiency, reducing costs, and increasing income. However, challenges such as accessibility to technology, training, and infrastructure remain. The emphasis on horticulture and natural farming may help address shrinking landholdings, but farmers must adapt to new methods while balancing traditional practices.
